How often is Crystal Caverns populated/camped?

[Loadsamoney]

In particular, the geonid tunnels.

afaik it's fairly quiet most of the time....quieter than it should be as people never deviate from their well trodden XP paths.

I would expect at least the geonids to be camped 24/7 because of how much money they average, since they can drop - and frequently do drop - chipped diamonds and chipped blue diamonds with vendor for 200p.

If not that, then the velium weapons and bars from the orcs is worth a lot too.

CC is generally empty. Not sure what kind of gems the geonids in CC drop, but guessing they're not as valuable as what the ones in WL drop.

[Legidias]

Its generally pretty empty, but that already means its full. Usually youll see someone solo or duo camp the entire tunnel of spider or geo so 2-4 people in zone = camped

[Freakish]

Gem drop rate in CC was pretty bad when I leveled there on my ranger. And I never saw anything like a chipped diamond / blue diamond.

[SantagarBrax]

gems drop off named geonids only, I've had 4 named spawn in one rotation before. I've also gone 3 rotations without a named /shrug.

Looted a chipped diamond and chipped black sapphire last night

You're better off doing the geonids in WL later on.

[Rummol]

What level are the CC geonids?

[SantagarBrax]

like 35-38

[Mistle]

One level appropriate twink or a regular duo can clear the entire geo passage in CC. Keep that in mind when you check it.

Me and a buddy killed the geonids for a couple levels and the best gem we found was 100p to a vendor. Exp was bad too.

That's why CC is generally quiet I think. Is the XP here really reflective of the XP on live as far as Velious is concerned.

I tried to do 58 in Velks....yikes :(

[Aaramis]

Yeah, the geonids in CC certainly aren't the cash cow.

Ry'gorr orcs or spiders (for silks) are the way to go.
Stalag terrors have the drops (as does the spider Queen).

[dude]

yeah its not the money maker that live was. I have camped it 3 times so far and came out with about 400p-600p each time 8 hour camp. I can make over 3k in 8 hours at my super secret spot.
