Hated the Hollows before, but after the revamp I now find I take every one of my new toons there to level from around 6-10. Quite a few of the things so many of you guys are fondly remembering were the same reasons I never went there before the revamp. Mish teams in the Hollows were the worst because of the infernal wait for team members to get to where we were, then the wait for them to die midway there, respawn at the Atlas hospital, and make their way back to the door. And then to do it again and again and again after every death. More than any other zone at the time, it made me feel like I was playing "City of Downtime." In fact, I think it was the original Hollows that turned me into primarily a solo player, because there, when I was first experiencing teams, I learned the lesson that being on a team is 9 parts waiting around on teammates, 1 part action.
I was never around before the Hollows, so to me, Perez has always been a ghost town, but one I like more than the Hollows because of the nice magical quality of the maze. I don't want to see Perez get an entire makeover, as I'm fine with the spawns there, but it would be nice to have more to do, mission contacts in zone and whatnot.
