When you said that, I had an urge to go investigate.
But instead I came upon "Cutthroat Jungle" It seems to be infested with alligators, undead of different types, scorpions and a stump. It's seems like a nice place for people in their mid-20s to gain some experience. Greens, yellows and reds and I'm level 25.
Maybe it was just a fluke?
