Exactly. the building there where the spirocs spawn is identical to KFC in SK with a better spawn distribution (IMO). The inside of the top of the building only has two spawns and there are three spawns on the "diving board" type planks on the top level as well. If you're soloing, these are perfect @ 6 min respawn. I suspect a duo could easily handle those and go down a level or two to snag some of the ones in the previous levels.
another great thing is you don't have to worry about the Spirocs becoming KoS. You can finish killing 100 of them and then go afk sitting right next to one.

Very nice.

Ok intersted, anychance you could mark on this map your thoughts on best spot? Think of it as a sweet treasure map so it's like were RPing instead of like 'not expereincing classic eq' in case any cave trolls come reading :P

The bloodgills are in the middle of the lake. Just pick a safe shoreline to pull them to. I never had a specific preference.

Yep, and to explain more thoroughly - there are a few reasons bloodgills are the best quadding material 45-51.

Bloodgills range 35-39 and max out at ~1400 hp. Spectres - the main comparable mob for quadding at around that level - range 33-37 and have ~1600 hp. Spectres will make you a lot more money, but Bloodgills will level you faster and are easier. Bloodgills also don't lifetap + stop moving momentarily (screwing up their density) after you deal damage when they're within range.

There are other places you can easily quad at this level too, but they're simply not as good as bloodgills.

Pulling them is ridiculously easy for a wizard. I haven't done it as a druid, so I don't know how that compares. If anyone's interested, let me know and I'll send you the procedure I used to pull them. I'd imagine it's more annoying/slower as a druid since I can pull them all full speed, get them into formation, then snare; as opposed to having to snare them individually.


EDIT: answering another question

The easiest ones to quad congregate around the 4 columns beneath the water in the middle of the lake. The north side was easier for me as a wizard. Why? Well, the bloodgills group 2 by 2. Each pillar has 2 of them. Some of the pillars actually separate the goblins from social aggro when you pull one. It's easier for me if both groups social aggro when I tag one of them. Both north pillar groups do that.

heh yes I do want to do kedge.. but maybe at 48-50. The Zem is high, but being an enchanter - you ahve to do a lot of pulling/quick casting.. kedge seems like it would make that very difficult :/

kedge is such a cool mysterious zone from the classic era, when I would see or hear of people that grouped there I held them in high regard.
