Question - Classic server ZEM changes

anyone been on test to check into any of the zones? I would assume they nerfed LGUk / unrest etc. and increased zones like Mistmoore/paw etc.
 
I think if someone takes the time to test so they have a primo leveling path they might keep it secret.

With test bonus exp it might be hard to tell but I think the bonus exp is the same as it is on FV and you could testbuff to certain levels
 
Although the xp per kill will be wrong, in theory you could test against other zones. I.E. if a lvl 25 mob gives, say 10% in Permafrost and a lvl 25 mob gives 15% in upper guk.. You could assume (perhaps after 10 tests) that Upper guk is superior to Permafrost.. Then move on to the next zone. Find all the lvl 25~ zones, all the 35~ zones and the 45-50 zones and test the percentage per even con kill. Again, you might not be getting that 15% per kill on Coirnav.. but you'll know you're maximizing your gains. Unless of course the optimal XP zone has sparce, slow spawns... Then you might as well take the 5% hit for the fast repops and mob congestion.

I was entertaining the idea of putting together a spreadsheet with my findings when mq2 works on test again.
 
Crushbone/Blackburrow are identical rates at level 1 with highest XP of 10% per level 1 con mob. It seems like the leveling path pre 20 will remain the same. Note: I haven't seen a post patch test on Befallen. It's possible this might be the best.

I need to test more tonight on upper levels. Most starting areas seem identical to previous, or worse.
 
Yeah it's been a community effort. But with Coirnav launching tomorrow, a lot of us are trying to find the most viable route ASAP :P
