What's the best PP spot for lvl 60?
 
I focused so hard on leveling that I found myself lvl 60 with crappy gear and only 2k pp to my name. So now I am looking to earn some PP so I can upgrade my gear and buy some desperately needed resist gear for raids.

I am currently in OOT killing Seafuries since they drop actual PP and occasionally drop decent vendor sellable gems and rings. I can kill 4 per mana bar but even still the drop rate on gems is nerfed so bad that the money for an entire afternoon of killing was not that great.

Is there a better spot to hunt for money? I considered giants at the fort in FM since I am sure I can kill 8 or so per mana bar easily. Not sure if that would be better money or not though.

What do you guys think?

Get creative with business ideas by selling no drop loot rights, mq, PL, and high level port services

Farm polar bears as long as Lickity is there.

This. Getting entrepreneurial and thinking "outside the box" will get you the most plat the fastest.

But, lots of people don't want to found a Norathian start-up, they just want to kill stuff. If you fall into that category I strongly recommend checking out the wiki's Treasure Hunting Guide (which is actually less of a guide and more of a long list of places to make plat).

LOL. As funny as he was, the polar bears contributed to my being so broke. I leveled 53-60.99 there and the bears/wolves drop 0 in coin and the only things I looted to sell was words and runes which were occasional drops and literally only sell for 1-2 pp each. But considering I easily paid out 500pp to clerics for rezes during that time so I probably broke even if I was lucky.

There is too much competition for anyone who isn't sporting a "dial a port" tag.

But PotG for donations or PLing for donations could prove to be more profitable. I was just looking for mobs to kill that drop decent vendor sellables.

60 druid options

Porting - not the best but brain dead and can be easy plat when your feeling extra lazy / just wanna watch a movie or Netflix and port

Power leveling - ppl pay for dis so I hear...

Otters -(quad) easy to quad just make sure to harmony the shamans and chiefs, drop Othmir fur (50p per) some velious gems and crustacean shell armor (I sell these for like 150p per piece)

Ice burrowers - (charm kite) highly suggest being non Kos with claws of veeshan else this could get just be suicide due to patrolling dragons. Easy to solo but can be very frustrating. They take about 12 to 15min to kill per burrower and often drop nothing. Their silk sells for 1k per. However like I said it can get very frustrating and time wasted due to bad drop luck. I had one day I got 3 in a row in like 40min and another day killed 11 and got zero

Peggy cloaks- while bard is the best class at quillmane druids are pretty decent for him as well. I'm not going to go over spawning him and how to solo it cause it's easy enough to figure out just reading his wiki page.

AC ring (jboots) - druids can port so binding on AC island and getting on the list for the camp can sometimes get you a ring, also port to sro at night time when not holding the oot camp and see if you can get lucky FTE on the sro ac

I made 1500 just porting people the other day, its doable if you don't mind being prepared to be semi-afk/watching chat every 5-10 seconds.

just don't do it if you value your sanity, but then again if you valued your sanity you probably wouldn't be playing EQ in 2018

Wow when I purchase a powerlevel I just shut up , sit back and listen to the good (wo)man's instructions no questions asked.
