Moving on.. Where to go from here?

[Skittlez]

Ding'd 37 not long ago and I wanna get out of Unrest finally. I want some new ass, know what i'm sayin? What's a fun and/or unique place to continue leveling?

[pharmakos]

Kaesora is awesome exp at level 37. steep learning curve, though.

I am pretty decent in dungeon crawling. Is it solo friendly or is that a group kind of place? Once I hit 40 this will be my highest toon leveled personally so I dunno much about anything after MM/Unrest.

[hurt]

I'll second Kaesora, very good xp.

You can probably root/rot spiders all day, they drop nice trash loot too. I've seen 2 or 3 shields from just clearing down to the church. They sell for 1-1.5k I think?

Just be sure to always have gate memmed, nasty place to CR.


MM is good to 40/41 also.

[Conky]

See a lot of people in lguk high 30s low 40s grouping too

I will be doing this on my Paladin. Shedwarf has officially become my main. I haven't logged on my shaman for a moment unless it's to buy or sell shit. Kaesora is Paladin friendly right?

[pharmakos]

i started soloing in Kaesora on my red server paladin at level 42. probably could have started it earlier though. just make sure to study the map a lot.... getting back to the exit can be confusing after the initial drop in.

here's a good old guide about kaesora, written by a paladin: http://www.angelfire.com/rpg/whitewind/gtxt/zones/kaesora.htm

http://www.allakabor.com/eqatlas/images/kaesora1.jpg

the best spot for you to solo at is at #3 on this^ map, and the tunnels to the north of #3. if you get a group together you can head towards the library or the church where the boss of Kaesora, Xalgoz, spawns.

added bonus about Kaesora: melees can bind right outside! the ruins around Kaesora in Field of Bone are one of the few non-city locations that melees can bind at.

[Sirken]

groups to be found guk, and solb

kaesora, maybe dalnir?

Thanks for this. I am definitely going to check it out.

Trying to avoid the norm dungeons. After the mass population of Unrest I would like a little solo time, ha.

The tunnles just after the spider area is better imo, especially for a paladin - all undead after that until you get to the library where a couple of sperms reside. Clear out the wanderer 1st, he will come all the way up to the ramp leading down (just to the right of 3) and then you have a 2 spawn to deal with. Further down is a 3 spawn and 1 wanderer i think that you can clear 1st can a pally handle that? thats about the hardest p;art if you wanted to go to the library area. (might be best to stick to the ramp where it's safe apart from that 1 wanderer)

[Skittlez]

was gonna try Kaesora out tonight but couldn't find a bind, so decided to camp till tomorrow when more people will be on. This place sounds exciting.

[Tecmos Deception]

I did Kaesora with a shaman once upon a time. As everyone has said, the xp was very nice and the place is quite fun.

A few things to watch out for though are adds, poisons, and healers:

Some of the mobs in the dungeon flee, and sometimes the paths they take are a bit odd and end up bringing certain death back to you; other than that though you don't tend to get big pulls even when splitting a room up, although pathers near the library (need to be a bit higher than 37 I think) can be an issue. Poisons are annoying. Even if you can cure them, they are still quite a bit more damage that you take over the course of the fight since they proc like crazy. I can't remember if some spiders have a nastier poison than others. Healers are the worst. Maybe you won't mind if you're there with a pally, and I guess they nerfed caster mana since I was there too. But omfg, as a decked-out sham who was meleeing and only had slam to interrupt, those damn skeleton clerics could greater heal themselves like 8 times before going oom. Undead will heal each other too, even if you aren't engaged with them all and through walls and shit.


One last thing! Watch out for the necro spider, haha. He can spawn very close to entrance and is quite a handful.

[Tikku82]

Mistmoore CE camp up to 40. 40-50 City of Mist.

Hell yeah, he is lethal. He loads you up with 3 or 4 real nasty dots, best to avoid really. Frenzied Strathbone.

Anything thats not skele will run. The warders (skele healers) I find heal themselves (and other mobs) no more than 4/5 times. Such a pain.

[Swish]

Spectres to 49? Feerott specs are less camped than Oasis specs... usually quite peaceful, and can sell outside Oggok if you're playing a decent shaman race ;)

[Kohedron]

a good duoing spot that I recently learned of is FV by the cliff. Pretty much a higher level orc highway

[Wotsirb401]

droga? lguk

i was able to solo him on my paladin. all the spiders have pretty low mana pools... so what i did was root him, then Cancel Magic/Cure Poison all his DOTs until he was oom.


Skittlez -- i think its probably been conveyed by now, but Kaesora is pretty dangerous. the crazy ZEM rate makes up for it, but be prepared to die a few times while you figure the place out. :)

[SyanideGas]

Swish has a good idea, specs would be pretty sick xp

[Atmas]

I really liked Kaesora, cool zone, awesome xp modifier. You just have to be careful cause a CR there sucks.

[Kender]

if you cant get a couple of people to head to kaesora with you then do pirates and growlers in FV along the cliffline to the ocean solo.

at 40 you can do the snarlers there as well (pirates and alot of growlers will be mostly light blue by that stage).

also at 40 you could go to CoM. it's a hotspot for grouping in the 40-50 range and melee's can be bound in zone

[Skittlez]

Thanks for all the info guys.


What's the spawn timer on the Specs? That could be fun. Though I will admit that I try to stick with dungeons due to the hybrid penalty.

I want to say 6 minutes for specs but can't remember exactly. If you find yourself in Feerott there's 7 spawns... and with dotting you'll probably never need more than 3-4 of those before respawns.

paladins dont get dots

Kedge Keep is PWN

[Hamahakki]

City of mist. Same level mobs as spectres, mostly undead. You can solo there, but there are also groups. You can bind there as melee.

[Skittlez]

I would love to go to Kedge, but no one ever wants to go. =(

Sooo... Kaesora was a bust. Luckily for me I memorized the exit route fast. Those things fuck me up.

has a bunch of ideas

[pharmakos]

what weapon are you using, skittlez?

[Skittlez]

I have a Sword of Morning and CGS for 1h, and a Arbitor's Combine Greatsword

[webrunner5]

Go to CoM. Repeat, CoM. End of story.

Yeah I did this with nullify magic, works fine. But he also nukes you down. Just don't have enough mana to kill him with root rotting as a lvl 40nec, including a cpl of taps to cope with the constant root resists/breaks. I'm sure trivial with fear. Maybe I'll try that if theres a cleric about to rez my ass.

Maybe come back in a level or two. The xp is so worth it, waaay better than CoM.

[Skittlez]

Wooo! Level 40!

[Derubael]

CoM till 50. fun zone, paladin friendly. can't solo, but groups there are plentiful.

Can't solo just yet, but, soon. Verrrry soon. :D

CoM

[Pint]

Soloing specs as a paladin isn't going to work, best group grind spot is hands down solb, best solo spot probably lguk

[Pint]

I feel like I should double post, 50% xp bonus is on, go to solb and don't leave.

[Skittlez]

CoM is bonkers good xp and loot. I left with 1k in gems alone yesterday.
