Paladin at level 24 - Where to go?

wormed · #1 03-14-2015, 12:09 PM

I've read many leveling guides but I find the suggestions are normally for casters. I've tried Unrest, and it's brutal. Apparently, "camps" on P1999 are like claims to all mobs in ANY VICINITY WHATSOEVER. Weird. So effectively, there really isn't much space for anyone.

I tried Mistmoore, same thing.

Is there any place I can solo? Is Lake of Ill Omen worth it even with the exp penalty? Since it's Kunark will I just get my butt whipped? I have a Baton of Faith, scrounged up coin for a couple of the 5ac 55hp rings, the rest of my gear is pretty basic like bronze or banded. I do ok. Is there anywhere in this game with a decent amount of mobs I can solo at a casual pace? Oasis was great because of this.

Thanks.

I think your gonna have to stop soloing and start grouping.

True paladins solo to 60.

at 24 u can bring holy wrath to inkys in nektulos up to 27, or if not very camped u can go gobo slayer in sola.

27 30 giants skeletons in rathe provide good xp.

Hmm, I found that the respawn times were pretty long and sometimes they get replaced with Dragoon's (the level 50) guards. I checked out Sol A but yea, pretty camped. I'm in Najena atm camping the Tentacle Terrors. Slow, but at least it's pretty consistent and safe. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Any other suggestions, however? I'm always up for options!

Hey OP.

I can attest to the fact that places like unrest are ultra camped by the same twinks.

You will have a hell of a time finding a group there within a reasonable amount of time. Same goes for mistmoore. My suggestion is to go to LOIO and look for a ledge group. its a no brainer in my opinion. I felt like the LOIO crowd was a lot more laid back as well.

Another thing is, you can get into a decent group camping the 4 skeletons at the ruined building near the windmill.

The great thing about LOIO is that there are quite a lot more options for solo or duo or group. Places like unrest and mistmoore look great on paper but tend not to be realistic to the more casual player.

I mostly soloed to 51 on my paladin back in 2003. Around your level I think I was in Najena doing the skeletons and tentacle terrors. Great xp gain on those and can use undead spells on the skellies.

Spot on advice.

Plus if you plan to solo up a paladin expect to not been in hotspots as much.

Unrest is over campped till late in the offpeak timezones of the server.

(P.s soloed/duoed my paladin to 30 there)

Best paladin xp is duoing with a high DPs class. You tank it they DPs it.

And if u can get a ghoulbane/wurmy and fungi (sorry I know elite items) your ride to 50 will be mediocre speed

Hey, thanks for all the advice guys. I super appreciate it. Will take all of it into account. Might see me in Lake of Ill Omen come tomorrow, I think.

Salahdin, I wish I had a Fungi! But I do have a Baton of Faith. I also don't play with anyone so I don't really have any DPS class to duo with. I'll find some duo partners soon, I'm sure.

Cheers!
