Spread the ZEM!

[Fammaden]

The Hole already had a big ZEM but yes it didn't get used a ton. But it wasn't even empty on blue prior to the ZEM changes, many monks solo'ed there and there was usually a group at docks. Once you dragged a 55+ person down there on blue they were always shocked that it was great xp.

Then they updated the classic zone ZEMS after green had been released and the Hole got even more of a boost to an already great ZEM. This was long before the Hole was ever released on green, but the ZEM changes were for both servers. The Hole on blue became what it is now on green, the only place anyone wants group xp in the 50's. This has been going on closer to a year on blue but no one there complains because the population allows for a full Hole that isn't overcamped.

I posted about this potential issue for green multiple times in various places in the lead up to Kunark, but I guess this is a closer approximation of the classic Hole ZEM based on their research or they just want it this way.

And OP if they updated Kunark ZEM's the Hole would not be included. Its technically an old world zone, which is why it was part of the ZEM updates for old world zones last year.
