Since DOF came out no one wants to go to EF/PF/LS

<DIV>I am not level 50 yet(45 currently). Now all groups want to go kill 55+ mobs in DOF. If I lfg anywhere, I never fail to get a tell "you have expansion?"   Well, my xp now sucks and I cannot use any attack/heal/ etc that needs to "stick" to a mob.  So far I am not really impressed with DOF as far as xp/loot goes.  I bet things would be different if I was 50+   </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>But, my point is now I am forced to go there or solo in another zone, which as most templars have figured out is bad now.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>What's a elf to do?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<P>Just hang on and wait until the blush wears off.  A lot of the 40s/50s will be returning to those zones to complete quests.  And there are a good bunch of 30 somethings up and coming and on their way to feerrott.</P> <P>At the other end - My lvl 30 guardian was in ROV last night (prime time) and there were only 6 other characters in the whole zone!  I was re-taught the lesson that ROV is NOT a solo zone at that level!  LOL!</P> <P> </P>

This always happens with expansions, and always will. As a general rule of thumb, the xp is always going to be better in the new places, and that is where people want to go, expecially when they are bored from spending almost a year in the same places. But as stated above, there are plently of people who will be leveling up and coming into those areas, but I gotta tell ya... they will probably be heading to DoF, as well. It is great xp at 45+ if you get a good group going.

<DIV>I solo'd/duo'd 43 and most of 44 in Sinking Sands.   Its a nice change of pace with few bottlenecks (like the cave in Lavastorm where a set of goblin stuns can kill you or the shark swim to Everfrost).   If you have the expansion you should check it out as its great xp otherwise as everyone has said wait until everything has settled down and people will be back.</DIV>

<DIV>I"m never going back.  I'm going to live in DoF forever.</DIV>
