I'm convinced I looked up "zones by era" under the database tab less than 2 weeks ago here on alla...

This no longer appears to be an option? It is not quite the same as the way "by expansion" has been organized as it was just one nice easy to scroll list.

Added in things (like the original planes) were in the right spot on the list. Revamped pieces and mission instances of old zones weren't mixed in (which happens on the "by level" list.

by era was particularly helpful when playing progression (and I do think eventually SOE will come around and launch another progression server) --granted they somewhat retrofitted timelines of some zone introductions & revamps in the last round.


I'm supposing this was a housecleaning/reorganizing effort? Maybe the list was easy to scroll for me but getting too long too load nicely for everyone?


Or am I just imagining all this... "by expansion" will work for what I wanted to find out tonight I suppose... by "by era" would have been way faster...

They changed alot of things around when they made everything zone-centric and tabbed on the zone pages. When you first go to a zone with the comments tab, the link is zstrat=### and you can change it to zone=### to see the old bestiary forums instead in the same tabbed format.

Anyway, I use my old link: https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/zones.html most of the times, but you can use the database - zones link at https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/zone.html?mode=bymap or Database - Zones - by Type at https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/zone.html?mode=bytype or Database - Zones - by Expansion at https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/zone.html?mode=bymap or Database - Bestiary - by Zone at https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/zone.html?mode=bycont

So there's lots of different ways to go. There's probably some more old, now unused links too.

Eventhough I didn't like the javascript for selecting zones / factions in the old bestiary pages, it was way faster than the new way.

Yther Ore.
