This is a new "feature" of Everquest intended to inspire all the people that use MQ2 to explore their surroundings just a bit more.

Really, this has been on the test server for weeks and there is a giant thread on the eq forums about it. Further more, it was in the patch notes.

Everquest no longer receives full spawn information for the entire zone.

Not a very good first post

What amused me a bit more than his obliviousness was that everyone was too busy laughing at that to notice he posted in ISXEQ with his MQ question to avoid the requirements on MQ2 help.
