I just got my husband playing for the first time and he started in gfay as a druid. We are going druid/bard (once we get our IP petition through). My main is a 40 troll shaman named mudcake who I wanna keep near gfay and hopefully farm some plat in my spare time to give to our druid/bard combo. Anything near there or any ideas for me to farm? or am I better off porting too and from DL yetis?

Gargoyle eyes in ocean of tears... level 21ish mobs eyes sell for about 9 plat each.

lfay bandits are really good sources of money, but also often camped.

Not a Plat farm but there are some nifty items in Lfay great for new toons or just some help killing.

Red wood wand is especially useful. Get 10-20 of them and you can quad kite wyverns in CS at level 5 if you wanted.

I think all you would get at level 5 would be 200 - 400 full resists (10-20 wands x 5 casts/wand x 4 mobs/cast.)

OP, if you get to the mid 40s, you can do Kelethin guards until 55-56 and xp there, while getting great money and pretty solid xp. You can even bank in Kelethin if you are KOS. Just avoid the guards that are on the ground by the lifts. My advice would be to just bank all the weapons you loot, then you can sell everything at once. Run to the druid ring in BB to sell, and come back.

Shit, I might start doin this on my 51 shaman.

Good luck

I don't see them camped super often either. The exp isn't, but they'd leave with several stacks of eyes if they stayed there until the garg's started greening out. Lev really helps too, so the druid should carry a couple stacks of bat wings with them to keep them floating.

Just don't get too close to the specs. They'll ruin your day.

Starting around level 12 or 13 you can do the bandit camps in LFay. The sisters are more heavily camped than the northern bandits, but both are good for cash and they provide good xp and cash up until lvl 19. After that move on to the gargoyles in OoT. That'll bring you to about 25 and make great money as well. After that it's back to the continent to group up for Unrest and Mistmoore which will take you into the 40s. Then you can hunt brownies in Lfay to 50. Mintaurs in Steamfont in the mid-late 30s is good too.

Thanks for the input everyone! I found the best bet for me right now us binding at BB druid rings and hunting at spectre island and the BB docks. Decent enough xp and pretty solid PP.

I guess I dont understand the issue with killing blue cons. . .isn't that one of the main points of the game, to level up? Get some plat? Or do I have to go wait in line for an hour to get in some group? I guess I didnt read the EQ ediquite manual, wanna post it for me?

I mean this camp @ level 40 is not good . Especially since I've done it on a lvl 14 untwinked druid & enchanter solo .

Sorry if I came across negative

I'm a purist. There's no difference of a lvl 60 killing 3 mobs and a lvl 14.
