Would this zone be worth the travel as a level 11 warrior? Is the zone populated and group friendly? Any info would help before travel is made.

Thanks,
Kol

Iksar are mean, the exp is great, sucks travelling to it as a lowbie. Wouldn't do it.

Well hmm. Any ideas on level 11 zones? Crush bone is getting real slow and old.

Kurns is great but what you need to do is get an escort. I would take the boat from oasis to OT. Run over to the skyfire ramp and ask a Druid who is porting to give you an escort. You might have to wait a bit but worth it. Don't forget to ask him for a bind at the ruins as it is on the way.

Good luck

Well, as an iksar warrior...

But nah, anything else and it probably isn't worth the trouble. You'll want a trainer close at hand for those levels so you can pick up dual wield, double attack etc.

Get off the boat in OT, get a bind at the outpost (if kos, swim around to teh outside of the outpost and get a bind on the outside next to the wall).

Then run to the SF entrance area and ask a friendly druid for a sow/invis.

Then, bolt across into Warsliks Woods (other side of the zone) and try and get as far towards the FoB entrance as possible!

If you die, at least you're bound and can try again :p

You can bind at Kaesora in FoB, anywhere inside the ruins.

Don't kill any of the furries there if you plan to solo so you can have all the basement skellys to yourself.

Don't knock the derv camp in WC, really close to vendors and high lvls who toss out buffs. Then head over to oasis around lvl 13+

If you're an iksar warrior yes, kurns is great

If you're not an iksar warrior, delete your current character and make an iksar one

and then yes, kurns is great

Kurn's Tower is only worth it if you are an Iksar or have some VERY helpful friends willing to spend a lot of time with you there.

It is the best place for XP at that level (I always started there around lvl 12 but I never twinked), but as a soft skin you have to work with no nearby vendors, an incredibly hostile and well-patrolled area surrounding the tower, and just an overall pain in the ass place to be. It's also viciously defended from discourteous power-levelers by a certain zealous CSR who won't be named here...

<3 all my little iksar broodlings and broodettes.

Is this whole Kurns PL all day all night thing a new trend? Hopefully they are only pulling the furries as most people don't kill them unless grouped.

Also you can create a level 1 Iksar and drop transfer, you wont be able to bank copper/silver/gold unless you get a friend to create a level 1 Iksar as well.

I went to Kurns on my level 12 Enchanter when I just started on P99 and left at around 16 or so. I was also able to bank in Cabilis using bind sight =P

On red I took my troll sham at level 9 from Innothule to Kurns to level with a couple friends. Was a great move, my buddy could vendor for me and buy spells. You'll run into issues training some very very necessary skills, like DW, but it's a great place and a lot of fun.

What he says. Not worth the trip. :D Plus kill Wisps in WC and get some much needed plat.

Getting there is easy. Buy a few invis potions from NPC. Grab a few lev rings from a mage in Ecommons. Find Sow whilst there.

Head to oasis and catch barrel barge. Run/lev across the ocean to the fire pot room. Put your invis potions in your top level slots so you can recast invis quickly if it begins to fade.

Drink an invis pot. Click the iksar style torch. Run to the entrance to Kaesora Library. Find a shaman/necromancer that can bind (prolly one in kurns if you use /who all). Pay for bind. Enjoy Kurns.

This works best if you are a race/class that can sneak. It is pretty easy to get to the vendors outside of cabalis in field of bone. If you hit sneak behind them they turn indifferent and you can sell to them.

If you can't sneak it isn't too much of a problem. There is a lot of traffic and you can always find someone heading back to town to swap your loot for food/bandages/arrows for you.

Have fun!
