I was thinking it would be nice to make a dungeon crawl timeline based on favorite dungeons like one available for eq2. So what are everyone's favorite dungeons in eq ? Thanks for some suggestions from Mardur and Takk - Levels 1-15: Blackburrow, Crushbone Levels 10-25: Warrens Levels 20-35: Befallen Levels 30-45: Qeynos Catacombs Levels 40-55: Acrylia Caverns Levels 50-65: Lower Guk Levels 60-65: Velketor's Labyrinth Level 65+ Charasis Levels ?: upper Guk Levels ?: Mistmoore Levels ?: TOFS Levels ?: Howling Stones Levels ?: Cazic-Thule Levels ?: Solusek Levels ?: Crystal Caverns Levels ?: Dalnir Levels ?: Nurga/Droga Levels ?: Clan Runnyeye Levels ?: Najena Levels ?: The Hole Levels ?: Kedge Keep Levels ?: Kaesora Levels ?: Sebilis. Levels ?: Dragon Necropolis Levels ?: The Deep Levels ?: LDON
9. Upper Guk is about level 5 to 35-40 depending on where you go. 10. Mistmoore is about level 25 to 50 also depending on where you go. 11. ToFS I'd say 35-60. 19. Najena is about level 20 to 40ish, ruling out a named or two 21. Kedge Keep is about level 40 to 55 All the ones I remember anything about not already covered I would consider breaking Solusek up into Solusek A, B, and C, as all 3 of the zones are QUITE different from each other.
5-10 Blackburrow 10-15 I don't remember what I do for this level range. 15-25 Paludel Caverns 22-30 High Keep 30-40 Lower Guk 40-45 Karnor's Castle 45-60 Sebilis 60-65 Bastion of Thunder 65+ DoN Thats as far as I have leveled, and I enjoy them more than the Hot zones. Low population and I can pull most of the zones with no company. With exception to Seb. There still seems to be a couple of us roaming around, but the spawn rate and size of the zone allows for us to spread out and not interfer with each other. Same with BoT. My group of characters I have I clear a wing and then move to the towers, and just recently started doing DoN missions.
Do you consider Kurn's Tower/Stronghold to be a dungeon? If so, I like both versions. BoT too. AC too. Oh, and Infected Paw, spent a lot of time in there years ago when it was a hot zone.
Both the Warrens and Befallen are more like 8-20. Great little dungeons and Id love to see them "enhanced" like the devs did with Guk and CT (increased mob level, new drops etc).
Sol c. The caverns of exile was one of my favorites because of the hidden tunnel in the lava. I very much hated the corpse runs but it sure did teach me to learn to move through tough area's naked
My favourites are: Paludal Caverns 1-25 Sol A 25-40 (I usually skip the gnomes) Crystal Caverns 25-45 Chardok B 45-60? Charasis/Howling Stones 45-60
By far my favorite dungeons in the entire game after playing for 14 years are... Befallen ToFS Charasis Veksar Mechamatic Guardian Sebilis
There are so many good dungeons, they are one of the best things about Everquest game design over the years. It would probably be easier to name off the bad ones, but that would probably just be a subjective list. Some dungeons that one person/class hates or cant function in, is a real treasure for someone else. The trick is, in the modern game if you spend any amount of time in a dungeon you will level up and be out of range to get any use out of many other dungeons. Back in the early days you could spend weeks or months in a couple dungeons and still not have gained 5 levels so you could explore all the other dungeons appropriate to your level. What i suggest is to roll up new alts and run them thru a different path than youve been before. Some of my favorites that i go back to again and again- Upper Guk 15-25 Lower Guk 35-45 Solusek's Eye 20-40 Nagafen's Lair 40-50 Kurn's Tower 10-20 Mines of Nurga 30-40 Temple of Droga 45-60 Cazic Thule 55-65 Kedge Keep 40-45 Crypt of Dalnir 25-35 Old Sebilis 45-60 etc. etc. id recommend going to Allakhazam on his Everquest site and hit the Zone tab and sort by levels and find a new adventure )
