Default Highkeep is possibly the single most overrated piece of content in all of Everquest

Title is self explanatory. I have a 2 hour window to play Everquest and I make the mistake of going all the way to HHK to see if I can join a list for the basement group. Lo and behold 8 people are in the list with the average group member going 10 hours strong. What the fuck is wrong with these people.

You've just described EverQuest. This is why it is simultaneously the best and worst MMO in the history of MMOs.

who'd have thought people had time off work over Christmas and would want to use it to level their characters.

This is the fallacy of high ZEM lust. The amount of xp you gain per minute logged in is almost always gonna be higher if you just go to a less popular zone. Especially if you can solo. Instead of sitting LFG and doing nothing, you could be gaining consistent xp in some outdoor zone where it's super easy to solo. Fuck HHK and it's ludicrously terribly lit environment
