If you have the pixel thirst, you need to strive hard. The other option is to slum it, enjoy the low levels, waste time and plat on the fulfilment of tradeskills and not lust after wealth or objects of obscene power.

Half arsing the quest for power ends only in disappointment.

this is absolutely true, if i cant play 8 hours a day of EQ. I won't play. Because I know im not going to get what i want out of this game. Everquest is a sockers game, anything less is just. You arn't going to get what you want out of it.

Less than 1k on right now a couple hours later.

At any rate, what none of these complainers seem to be able to articulate is, if they essentially want instancing or pick zones (and make no mistake, that’s in essence what opening new servers so you don’t have to wait for a camp would be), why they didn’t just go play the TLPs? If that’s so critical for them, why come play P99 at all when you know content is limited pre-Kunark? There are plenty of TLPs that would provide the experience these people are looking for...

In classic under PnP no one could hold a camp and simultaneously exclude others. If a level 50 were camping frenzy and a group of 6 showed up, they would make the level 50 and the group of 6 alternate spawns, or /random for the mobs. Point was, if you wanted to camp it you could, they would make the person share with you.

Source: was a guide on Mith Marr in 2000/2001.

When I saw how Lguk was on this server I was pretty disappointed as it had been my favorite place to level on classic but its an abomination on this server. Somehow a single level 50 has as much right to a spawn as 6 people. Even if you were to form a group to camp the old school camps as soon as a bored level 50 came they would be able to take one of your named camps.
WOW largely solved these problem. I know the EQ purists absolutely HATE instancing but it was an inevitable end result.

Something like WOW Classic combining instances with open world rare spawns and quest rewards is ultimately the best compromise. Vanguard did this very well also.

Very few Everfrost tundra nor Permafrost zone in groups happening yet. I suggest turning the population slider up even higher.
