What do you think the worst starting zone experience of classic/kunark is?

[captnamazing]

innothule is the worst imo. hard to find consistent mobs, fucking shitty water everywhere...

Cannot say for definite that it is the absolute worst, but it sure is in contention. The irony is that I moved RG [Inkie] there for 3 levels from 5th for Woven drops - and of course, the goddamn chest piece does not display a graphic texture!

Lots of water - check!
Lots of aggro mobs - check!
Few if any roaming guards - check!
Minimal to no tradeskills drops - check!
Higher level KOS NPCs that will send Trolls to "LOADING. PLEASE WAIT..." - check!

The funniest with the latter is that as an Inkie Inny worshipper I actually wasn't KOS to all of them (except a couple of the Nobles).

BBM. For a non twink and noob I think its a hard zone. Bunch of roamers and if you don't know about the bone chip quest its slow going. Also feels like most people leave to go to gfay so less groups.

I actually like Butcherblock. It has some of the best visibility of any noob zones

I love and hate BBM

Your starting bind point is right on top of a like a lvl 4 kragling.

Fun!

A bunch of the starting areas are garbage, you can tell they learned their lesson with Field of Bone.

Compared to Everfrost, Field of Bone is like easymode on steroids. But newb zones shouldn't be user hostile, so that's more a comment on Everfrost than FoB.

I loved WFP+EC & GFay+CB on live, here I don't care for either. If I made an untwinked toon now it'd probably be in Qeynos.

I really like the starting area of Erudites. Erudin/Paineel and Tox are very atmospheric. Grobb is probably the worst.

The first character I made was a Half Elf Druid and after running out of Surefall a Gnoll pup killed me. the zone was pretty full so it was hard to find spots to level (everyone was a druid). I keep blowing plat on weapons and armor that I couldn't use so I was always broke. I started grouping with a cleric and wizard and they out leveled me as I kept dying being their "tank". Eventually I deleted that character and moved to another server.

Toxx is the only newbie zone aside from misty thicket that I thought you could gain coin fast enough to buy all of your spells as you level.

Everfrost sucks, but for a first timer to EQ that is an awesome starting point/journey to the rest of civilization.
