Zones
Approximate hunting bands based on the distinct creature types found in each zone. This view bins live NPC levels into 5-level ranges so mixed-service zones like East Commons read more cleanly than a raw min/max field.
Numbers show distinct NPC types in each 5-level band. Level 1 trigger NPCs and invisible men are excluded to keep the table closer to actual playable content.
