On Drinal and Mith Marr it was NFP. The big "evil" races would sometimes make trades from the underground tunnel entrance or more likely they would be found in the various backyards of the buildings which were quite safe. Have you noticed how many secluded backyards there are in NFP? It was nice to see them being used. The only real downside was the lag wall you hit when turning the corner into the NFP market but that didn't bother me much and I had a terrible PC then. People often factioned hard to get NFP faction on their main or would have banker characters. The alternative was an evil having to make a quick run to the Neriak bank which happens today on P99 with the EC tunnel.

When Live EQ wrecked Freeport it really hit home with me and I simply can't play there. NFP was the hub of EverQuest until Luclin on my server.

Mithaniel Marr where I guided was NFP.
Fennin Ro was Gfay.
Lanys T'Vyl was EC tunnel.

Those are the ones I remember.

Ah, I was on Tunare and yeah, Gbay was the best. The only thing was that there would be higher level evil races slaying in Crushbone to grind their faction, which left less mobs for the newbies.

Gfay felt like a real city with hundreds of people running about, finding places to sit, etc. I loved it as a kid!

Crowded Kelethin was cool, I still remember this rager who used to sit at the bank in full Rubi, what a baller.

Prexus was at the front of EC tunnel like p99. Pure nostalgia. However, there were about 30 peeps always auctioning off stuff in Gfay as well. I remember trading CB belts for bronze armor back in the day. Sundays were the big sell day in EC.

I remember logging into the game for the first time in 1999 as a wood elf bard on Sol Ro and not being able to move from all the lag, so I rerolled halfling rogue.

Another good point against GFAY, that must have been shit for new players not knowing wtf is going on trying to be a wood elf.

Having the bank be 2 zones away is a joke. Gfay was amazing since even evil can bank using the window trick. Rallos Zek used gfay.
