Its not all about modifier though. It can also be about Solo XP vs. Group XP. Safety and convenience. (Banking/selling etc) A good group in LOIO can keep mobs coming in almost constantly. Places like Unrest etc. a train can cause reverse XP and take time for CRs. Its also about the fun of the place your at. Some places for me just were sooo bloody boring. Lots of aspects that motivate people to XP where they want to I think.

Totally agree. There are many factors to take in to account. ZEM is not the be all end all of fast exp. Just ask all the people sitting in KC waiting on spawns.

and if that's the case then maybe the developers should crank up the exp in Kunark as a incentive please

But anyways as a new Iksar I really hope people start grouping at all levels here in Kunark.

I really want to exp right here in Kunark and not go back to the same old classic camp/zones that I have leveled up all my previous toons. That will really be disappointing if everyone just goes back to Orc 1, N. Ro, Oasis, South K, Upper Guk, Mistmore, etc etc etc.... and I have to go there to find groups...


don't be lame guys, Come to Kunark

This right here. Who cares if it's slower xp. People are in such a rush to get 60 just to raid and get bored and quit. I'll take my time.

I have to admit, I might be leveling fairly quickly, but I am doing it in places I never leveled before. I never really did oasis (idk how I managed to skip that), OT in the 20s, and hell, this was the first time I've ever zoned into Warsliks Woods.

I actually had a great experience the other day, I was running around WW waiting for my building of iksar outcasts to respawn so I could kite them down again when I found a dilapidated fort of goblins with a bunch of upper levels laying waste to it. I thought, "wonder whats here that they want?", pulled up the old google and come to find out that one of my Live paladin's instant cast items for a trash buff actually drops from there. I never knew that!

hehe.. that goblin skull earring is far more than a trash-buff in classic.

LOIO was always bad exp, people went cause it was outdoors and easy.

Same with Overthere and Dreadlands, although those places aren't as bad exp, you're better off doing an old world dungeon.

LoIO originally had a very good ZEM. It wasn't nerfed until later. Once the ZEM was lowered the zone emptied out in a hurry.

And here I thought maybe one or two players might just like to play in new content rather than level up in Guk for the 7th time.

If you're leveling your 7th alt instead of getting to 60 on your main, you probably don't care about getting the fastest exp anyways.

LOIO had newbie zone ZEM. It should have the same ZEM here.
