Zoning Paradigm

Postby moritheil » Sat Feb 17, 2007 4:22 pm

I think that this should be explained to new players in a place where they are forced to read it. I have seen several low-levels act quite confused when "zoning" was mentioned. The idea of separate advancement in exp and advancement in eq, requiring different locations, is perplexing to some.

Some players may also come from backgrounds where they expect random drops from the vast majority of mobs, and it might be helpful to explain that that isn't generally how things work at present.

When I was a noob player (O wait I STILL am unfortunately) I learned everything I needed to know as I needed it .. Just as talking to new players about Tiamat, everything will come in its own time I do believe .. I dont even think that is being negative by saying that this will all come together as you play ..

As a parent, you cant explain EVERYTHING to your kids right off the bat, you explain things in age appropriate manner and languages .. same with mudders .. explain thinbgs at a level appropriate/skill appropriate manner.

Hm, I guess most people think it isn't necessary.
