I played on Tallon Zek. Everyone zone was scary...every 1-2mins you would do /who to check the zone for potential targets or to get ready to flee because you were the potential target.

buh atleast there was a level range to save you... being anywhere after level 6 in sz was terrifying, nobody could really pass up the chance to 1 or 2 shot some poor lowbie they happened upon.

When I FIRST started, I was a human cleric. I was so afraid of dieing that I wouldn't even go beyond the dirt in EC. I had myself convinced that I was perfectly happy staying in Freeport and would never leave. I think it took me 20 or so green kills before I realized I could no longer progress.

I have to admit I used to drop through bbm/gfay/cb on occasion, playing pally god and deciding who I'd let live and who I'd strike down in the name of Karana. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

hint, it was usually the ones who would talk smack. the ones who played possum and just stood still staring at me I'd usually just leave.

Scariest place for me is easily the bathroom when I use it after eating a heaping fourthmeal [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

My apologies

One zone that was somewhat scary to me was the karanas, especially if you are running through at low levels. When you enter those zones and you see how damn big they are and realize that one red mob can equal a punishing corpse run. Getting farther in and you just see that spinning compass on your screen really makes me sweat.

Deep dungeons with alot of twisty tunnels, like lguk and solb, make me nervous too. You just get so far in and you get so disoriented, any bad pull or any mistake will mostly equal your death in such an area.

I farmed lguk on my monk so much I could literally walk through that place in my sleep while dodging the trapdoors and feigning off spawned mobs. The general skills involved in moving around a dungeon came in really handy when Velious came out...Velk's Lab was a ton of fun if you had safe fall like I did. I'd jump over stuff to reach spawns faster than others, etc.

Ocean of Tears.
Not particularly 'scary' the way Feerott is, but the sheer realization that a bad pull is death is pretty intense. No zoning out. Even if you ditch and gate, its a long boat ride back, and your spawn may be claimed.

Heres a funny/sad story:
On my live shaman, I was camping gargs and pulled a 3rd. LoM, I had a SoW and a DMF so I tried to kite them over the water. I ended up saying 'fuckit' and thinking I'd zone out by running. I ran and ran and all of the sudden I start getting hit by the gargs...
WTF?!?!
a few spams of /loc reveals I'm not moving. Its the zone wall.
In a panic, I ended up kiting 3 gargs with an empty mana bar for the whole 14 minutes my SoW lasted, when it ran out, I died just offshore of Sister Isle.
