Tbh, most of you "that's not classic" nerds would quit if this was REALLY classic windows 98, 56k modem, no laser mouse, no flat screen monitor.. etc. Why bash my main post when the official wiki has maps with key points of interests on it.. norrath map was the same just a time saver for me.. sorry I have a family to feed and bills to pay... I don't have time to find a zone in an mmo that takes forever to level in at the same time..

I think you are trolling at this point. This argument has been had 30 times on these forums this month. The game hasn't changed.

LOL chortled good here - thank you.

ITT the difference between OP being able to feed his family & pay his bills is a rudimentary map in a (16) year old game.

You should be thankful we get the Wiki. In 1999 you had to print hard copies of that shit and make an entire binder dedicated to EQ maps.

The second half is obvious.

Or you just learned the maps. Outdoor zones are all pretty simplistic, and most dungeons only seem too labyrinthine to remember until you get your bearings on a few key landmarks. Not all, but most.

The original devs didn't expect most people to get past level 30.

Those wiki maps are the same maps us Classholes printed out from EQ Atlas with hand written notes/locs and collected in binders back in 1999-2001.

Can confirm for this. My friend, who got me into EQ, had a binder of every map (colored btw, he used his work's color laser printer and I thought it was the GOAT at the time) printed out, paper holders and within arms reach every time we played (weekend lan, ahh those were the days).

I still have my binders in a box at my parents house... I remember taking a trip to hang out with some friends and carrying a couple of those binders with me to get their opinions on gear upgrades for my druid.
