But kidding aside I think you’re probably both right to an extent. I mean creating a level 1 rogue and getting him to Odus and bound didn’t take me more than 30 mins yesterday. You also don’t need the key as you can wedge through the rock in the pool. You can drag to entrance, it’s just tedious. Drag up to drop off, suicide, run down and drag up.

Having said that. It’s a pain in the ass compared to dying in more populated and easy-to-access dungeons.

Everytime i've died in hole i've had no reason to drag my corpse with any other char but myself. I knew the halfling rogue technique was a thing, I never tried it. have never played a halfling, nor do I plan to. If it takes 30 minutes, that's still 30 minutes added to a corpse run, coupled with other unforeseen issues that can arise from using a level 1 for anything. I mean what is there to argue here? IS there anywhere else in Norrath where some folks think its necessary to create an entire new character in order to retrieve a potential corpse? Point is, halfling or not, its just a more complicated process of getting your corpse, and the fact that its just not a popular area compounds the sentiment.

knowing various exits helps in any case. After getting to know the zone death became virtually non existent, excluding a few times when a pet class in group would aggro the golems in the fountain room on the way to a particular camp.

But honestly none of this matters after I found a particular spot in the city where you can have aggro and be out of line of sight of mobs, and even with the most massive of trains you can camp out. Its actually quite game breaking and saved my groups life once after a silly train. After learning the zone I just never understood why that place isn't packed to the brim at all times. With the right dynamics. camp choice and some knowledge, exp gains there are the best in game (In my experience). And its just a fun zone.
