As an Iksar Necro, I left for the mainland @ 20. My level 20 summon was only sold in paineel, ogre town, troll town. Dumb. So I run to Overthere and get a port to SRo, run to the swamp, and ask a noob Troll for help. I need him to take my plat, buy my spell, and return it to me. He does! Yay!
But now what? I have all my level 20 spells, I'm on the mainland, might as well make this my home! So I run north, zone, run north, zone, and bind outside Freeport. I decide that I'm going to make the Karana's my home. More specificly, Lake Rathe so I can slaughter birdmen. So I run to EC tunnel, bum a SoW and make my cross country trip. Invis up, maps up on other monitor, I'm ready to go. Long story short, I bind an Arena, and kill aviaks for many levels.
But one lesson I learned during my playtime is this: sometimes (in my case, almost always) exploring for an even better exp spot isn't worth it. Either it's already camped, far away, too high, you die, etc. So, SO MANY TIMES, have I gone to a new exp place, die or find it camped and mumble to myself "I shoulda just stayed where I was..."
