KC is buggy as fuck. I went there first at 51 and had mobs running through walls and the Z axis aggro through floors is unbearable. Got a couple VP key parts and Venril kill (with guild) and said fuck it and never went back. I have been almost exclusively in Sebilis 51-57 and Veksar 57-59 until they closed the zone two days ago.
Sebilis has a few decent drops + gem drops for $. The key is staying away from the higher HP mobs if you want to grind xp. Ilis frogs and golems, etc all tend to have a significantly higher HP pool. You MUST watch out for the wizards though because they will Ice Comet your ass for about 1400 unresisted. If you have any kind of mezzer / stunner, just chain on them and you are good to go.

Yeah I figured that might be the case, luckily I do actually have my ench that i can stun/mez shit over and over to interrupt, although that sounds pretty tedious. I will however, definitely do it at some point, i'd really like to snag a Fungi, spells among other things as well.

Super solid trio, thats what I run. You will be able to solo just about anything, save for shit that you cant dps down.Decided on Warrior/Bard/Cleric. Knife from Immersion randomly messaged me and hooked me up with some Mithril Vambraces, Rubicite BP, and decent weapons. Still saving plat for spells, but was finally able to buy 7 bags for all my dudes!
Currently my guys are level 11 in Blackburrow trying to get a ruined gnoll pelt for warrior armor quest. Forgot how much of a fucking maze that place is. Having a lot of fun so far.
Character names are Oberyn (warrior) Ashran (bard) Taebin (cleric) if someone from TFO wouldn't mind sending me a guild invite later. OOC as my only source of chat is quite lonely
Also, RL reached out and slapped me so havent been able to play lately. Hopefully I can get logged back in soon.

Unless you have a really good proc based weapon, absolutely.
This is why i want a steel hilted flint dagger badly on my BL, his dps would increase a shit load lol

I did the Royals with Aleks the other day. Going in with dubious faction made it quite nice to just walk straight to the Royals. Our little 6 man team did pretty good. I dont think it would have been possible without his enchanter though! There were 8 guards in King room and 6 guards in the Queen room. The respawn is blistering fast, so you have to have your shit together. It wasnt long until we hit kos faction too, so it made it all the more fun. It certainly was a nice nostalgia run, but I cant say I would want to clear the entire zone to get there to do it all over again!

Oh, I figured I would maybe warn people of an annoyance I had yesterday. When I was offline, I was doing a generic PC cleanup and was using CC Cleaner. This particular time I ran the registry cleaner tool. I was half paying attention, but I remember the "remove unused extensions" or somesuch was enabled. This nuked a bunch of EQ specific files (.s3d was one of them). I spent a good hour reinstalling EQ Underfoot and MQ2 from scratch. When I finally got back into game I was chatting with Disturbed about it and he mentioned he knew some people that had that happen as well.
Save yourself the headache and leave the registry cleaner alone! LOL

Does this mean invising yourself and using proximity aggro only (on named / see invis mobs) without being hit, run through the rest of the mobs invis to your camp? The only issue I would see is that Queen is a bard and would AE Fire your ass before you could get out of the room and drop the invis. King has GFlux as well that could be problematic.

invis-pulling requires two characters
character 1 starts casting invisibility on character 2
before the invis lands, character 2 starts casting on the mob you want to pull
the invis will land, the pull will land, and only the mob cast on will come
i haven't tested it personally, but someone told me it works on KP. it works on most emu servers.
if that does work, you can also cast a beefy Rune on a character that has Taunt, invis that character, and then have that character pull just using Taunt. as long as the Rune remains up invis will not break, and you will be able to pull singles.
this method works because social agro on most Emu servers doesn't work correctly when Invisibility is involved
caveat -- IDK if the KP GMs would consider this an exploit, but this pull method went on for years on Project1999 before it got fixed.... and no one there got in trouble for it. use at your own risk.

Most of the mechanics that P99 has that are really specific like that do not work on EQEmulator unless someone bitches hard enough on the forums
I'm sure if you request it and can provide evidence that it was a live-like feature, EQEmu will implement it rather quickly. Just make sure you bug it on Github so it get assigned as a bug etc.
