View Full Version : Where to Go after level 20?

I was on the wiki page for places to go for 20+.

I used to go to HHP/HHK back in the day, but I've also seen some talk about going to Upper Guk as well.

I know HHP/HHK very well as I spent countless hours there and I know what it's like. Plus, it has vendors and a banker right there, so there is no need to worry about running out of inventory space, etc.

Is HHP/HHP still a good spot to go for leveling? Since I've never been to Upper Guk, how is it there?

For reference, I'm a level 20 paladin, with so-so gear for the level and the amount of money I have.

Unrest isnt quite as popular as it was back in the day, Upper guk will probly be good for a few more levels, at around 24 I usually make my way to Mistmoore, usually a few groups around there.

Mistmoore also has the advantage of gargoyles which drop eyes (stackable to 20) that vendor for about 9 - 10p each, pretty great way to make cash for a lower level, but dont be greedy if you are in a group, let others have a chance at em too.

Bounce between Mistmoore and unrest. Group in MM and solo/duo in Unrest until you outgrow Faydwer entirely. Two of my favorite zones when I leveled up!

Mistmoore sounds like an interesting place.

The run there will be a bit of a pain coming from West Freeport. I'd have to get a bind somewhere close by.

Have a wizzy port you to Gfay, and they can bind you right at the spires.

You'll get good exp in Sol A if you have a good group as well.

Ah, I didn't even think of porting there.

Is there going to be any issue of finding groups there?

I've never played a Pally before, but I suspect you could solo reasonably well in the Lake of Ill Omen, just north of the Windmill. Lot of undead, but also some live mobs. One nasty patrolling NPC to avoid. One possible piece of very nice loot.

All these options are good, but as a fellow pally I would suggest not chasing the undead. Ghoulbane is overrated.. Get a Baton of Faith (saw one today for 150, incredibly cheap) and just go where the groups are. Mistmoore is great, but I found Unrest on this server to be somewhat empty at times.

Go hunt where you think you will have the most fun, and still gain good experience.

I wouldn't try to evaluate where the fastest and most effective xp rate would occur, but simply where I would have the most adventure to savor the old days.

Lake of Ill Omen in my opinion.

On Live, I soloed unrest with a Ghoulbane from like 20-30. I'd recommend staying in dungeons for the highest ZEMs. Mistmoore, Unrest, Guk (UGuk in the 20s, LGuk starting in the 30s). Sadly I think most places might be BYOG, but Unrest is a Solo paladin's dream!

Mistmoore does have a fairly healthy population lately.

I'll have to see if I can get my hands on a Ghoulbane.

Permafrost is the highest EXP mod for any dungeon other than Kedge Keep iirc... Making it an ideal leveling place if you can get a group. The downfall is that its so out of the way that not many people go there.

Convince like 10-12 people to set up alts/mains around 20s in Perma and you are golden!

Otherwise as a paladin I'm a fan of Unrest + Ghoulbane.

Unrest is pally heaven imo, but I have had some awesome times in Upper Guk on this server. I highly recommend either.

as a paladin on this server i did the unrest/mistmoore area until level 34 then did lguk from 34-38 soloing the zone in area. Unrest is a good/easy spot to solo due to multiple single spawns that are easy kills for a paladin.

What's the exp level ranges in Permafrost? Is it 20-60, or does anyone know the approximate level range?
