Exp Bonus ZonesFollow

I was wondering if anyone knows what zones have exp bonuses to them and what % bonus it was. I am a 24 Ikky SK and I love the exp bonus zones since they help to cover my 20% experience penalty. Any input would be great.

Stick to zones that are indoor. There is usually an exp bonus (i.e.. Paladrul Caverns, Kurn's Tower, Sol A,B,C. ALso I know that luclin zones and later expansion zones give better exp then the old world zones.

Hope that helps

Check out this thread on EQ Druids. Read the whole thread, but the info you want is on page 2, posted by Rookz. It's good to read the whole thread as it provides some background info regarding where the numbers came from.

However indoor zones have a tendancy of giving better exp sorry it took so long to find it all but dragging it and looking for it all was the challenge

The numbers that Darksaber posted above aren't the % bonus each zone gives, but they can be used to determine what that % bonus is. I'm basing this on what I read in the thread that I linked above, so please read that for a more thorough discussion.

To get the % bonus for a zone, take the number from Darksaber's post and divide it by the base value of 75. Multiply the result by 100. Then subtract 100 from that result. The formula is:

((X/75)*100)-100=Experience Bonus (%)

Where X is the value reported in Darksaber's post.

Again, I didn't come up with any of this, I'm just parroting the EQ Druids thread. Go there for more thorough treatment of the issue.

And don't take offense, Darksaber, I'm not trying to bust on you. The numbers you posted were correct, it's just that you have to take the numbers you reported one step further to find how much the % bonus is for each zone.

A little while before SOE stopped sending ZEM info to the client (mid March of this year) I did a check on the Lake of Ill Omen and was expecting a 60 zem but what I got was a 75. Perhaps due to inactivity in the once overcrowded and popular zone they have reset the negative zem.
