CT is a fun zone, and for skilled players, the "problems" people are mentioning are simply part of the challenge.

However, poor loot + too many pussy players = no one goes there.

But it was one of my fave zones pre-Kunark on live.

No idea what the solution would be but to increase the exp modifier. But it is a damn shame to let that zone rot.

My fave: the pyramid. Fight way around it, and then up it.

Yea put rubicite back in and people would be all over the place. Just have some way of preventing level 40+s from zoning in and AEing it and you're golden.

Currently I am leveling my 24 mage here at gators duo with my brothers mage. Love it cause it is out of the way but damn is it tough at 24. Always pairs and the mobs are yellow-red.

I was a SK on Live. I adore CT... the Zone. Some of my favourite times ever were there.

Even on Live though, CT fell into disuse, which is why they revamped it.

Don't devalue my already pointless set of rubicite.

But an unclassic change that would give the server a more classic feel would be to revamp all of the ZEMs. The easiest dungeons with the best loot should give the least exp and the hardest ones should give the most.

Hardly out of the way, unless you think Guk is out of the way as well. There's also a port into this zone and the connecting zone. Healing through walls can suck but I'm sure if people exp'd here regularly they would find out the sweet spots to pull mobs too, and also now that I think about it I was able to kill off mobs being healed through walls with my 69 DS. I'm sure a group with a few twinked dps wouldn't have any problems either.

It's a fairly big zone with a lot of mobs, quite surprised no one exps here. I guess the unknown + fear of failing keeps people out of this zone. The only thing I hated about the mobs here, while PLing people, was that they dispell, but even that is easily taken care of.

Another thing is rangers would probably be sought out for when exping in this zone with Harmony and Snare and screw the ZEM when you have an entire zone to yourself for nonstop pulls.

as much as I love this zone, its just kind of annoying to level at more than anything IMO.. green mobs right next to red ones.. catwalks and falling into watter in the basement.. a maze that your rep gets lost and dies in every time...

its just kind of troublesome.. altho it is definitely one of my favorite zones i wish that people leveled in it more often!!!

Before Kunark dropped, if I did any grouping in the 30s it was in CT, that zone was great. Many people were there and yes, it was tough, but more often than not we'd get into a nice rhythm and just clear as a group up and down the pyramid. The only problem was DPS, if there was a problem.

With Kunark weapons and equipment I'm pretty sure that zone is just an XP pinata waiting to be cracked open.
