This x1000. If there was a zoneout, the zone destination, etc, would show up in packet logs.
Calling all filthy classic beards: need help resolving this conundrum
- Thread starter Nirgon
- Start date
The map posted seems all sorts of incorrect. Thus, I went searching. . .
There's a site that "preserves" EQ maps. PoH may be found here:EQ Plane of Hate maps
Scroll down a bit and you'll see a map labeled "The Temple of Innoruuk. The Plane of Hate." This map is for the first floor, however the EQ cartographer(?) mapped the upper floors - specifically, "Temple 2", "Organ Hall 2nd Floor", and "Innoruuk Temple." This is how I recall pre-revamp PoH's "second" floor, not the way the Tripod map is drawn.
But, there's more.
Book of Knowledge: Guide to the Plane of Hate - The Safehouse Forumslinks to a Safehouse PoH thread dated August 10, 2000. The post from "Zato" is extremely detailed. It explains every point of interest, mob, mob pathing, and pull strategy for PoH at that time. Nowhere in that post does it reference a port out of PoH. Granted, it's possible to overlook, however doubtful given how thorough the guide. (For reference, Zato's post uses the first map in the above map link for the first floor, and the stylized "Innoruuk Temple" map for the second floor).

I believe the point Siddar was making was that the devs, when writing/posting the Patch Notes, stated "Hate" when they intended to state "Fear."

As a cleric I was always one of the last to leave the zone after rezzing everyone and ensure everyone was good to call it a night. I cannot remember one instance where I zoned out. I was always teleported. Maybe there was one and I never used it but PoH was always one of my favorite classic raids. The zone in was always a blast. As a cleric, I was always pretty busy in PoH more so than I was doing PoF.

I feel ya.... I don't know how many zones to this day I could probably still navigate every twist, turn, spawn, and drop.

It makes you wonder how so many players routinely get lost en route to Nagafen...

Hell, anyone that actively pulled. It meant the difference between a good pull, or a train in certain situations. Sol B wasnt that hard to learn imo. Upper Guk was the only zone that took me a while to learn. I never grouped in Upper Guk so it was always just a straight shot to lower guk. Once I had that down, the rest of the zone was just scenery.

To this day I can still navigate from Upper Guk entrance to Lower Guk blindfolded. I'm sure I'll be able to 20 years from now as well, without ever logging into the game again. Same with Siren's Grotto to West Wastes and all the others. Crazy how strong EQ memories are for so many of us.
