HHK Exp Overrated?
 
Joined a HHK Nobles group for the first time tonight. Was level 45 and made 1 yellow bubble in 2.5 hours. Sure it's a hell level but extrapolating 12.5 hours to grind through level 45 in HHK doing Nobles it just seems like the exp is hyped.

I was getting equivalent or better exp mowing through kobolds in solb.

What was the group composition? Were there hybrids? Were you killing all the nobles or only the two on second? Did you add the bards in?

Many factors affect the exp of the group.

It's no worse than the other extremely limited options in that level range.

Shit is gonna be rough until Kunark.

It’s got a much better ZEM than elsewhere, but for 45+ less mobs to pull.

That said, 2.5 hours for 1 yellow in 45 isn’t terrible.

Were you in a full group? Highkeep XP is definitely the best in game if you do it right. Every kill is like two kills

The group composition was troll SK, monk, necro, mage, rogue and cleric. Pulls were steady based on the clerics mana, the cleric had clarity about half the time. Not sure exactly what was pulled just that it was blue a noble and other noble named.

Based on my experience it seems like people should consider branching out to other zones like solb. The exp seems to be the same and you can camp named for loot. I just don't see the HHK hype.

There’s a reason every server first 50 finished in Highkeep.. try doing a group of only 3 or 4 there.

Why do people say hhk? There are two zones - high pass hold and high keep

Wallicker 12-24-2019 09:38 AM

HigH Keep maybe?

2 or three person group of the right comp is the fastest exp in the game.
