nice list Spyder. I will have to follow that on my Iksar. Right now he is level 8 and I have tons of bone chips and spidering silk to go sell so I can pickup a couple trance sticks.

There is crypt in Field of Bone where tons of spiderlings spawn. Good xp and silk drops.

Is there somewhere in Kunark where people buy and sell? Or would I have to get a port to buy gear in EC? Because I haven't seen anyone selling in and around Cabilis thus far.

I'm level 6 at the moment and so far all I have at the moment is curscale armor and the quest shackle. Are there any cheap 1hb or 2hb weapons obtainable to at least train with while I save up for Wu's trance stick and Wu's Quivering staff? So far I've been using the starter club and my fists to train, and haven't found a 2hb to train with.

Welcome to the server. Quickest route to xping up would be to get a port to WC, and bind in wfp. Free buffs in ec; sometimes folks give away free items too.

Oasis 12-18ish.

Meh. I kind of wanted to stay in Kunark. I'll think about it, but for now I'll just see if I can find a crappy 2hander to train with for now and keep leveling for a bit.

There any good places to get money in Kunark at least?

You are going to have to be a lot higher to get any gear to amount to anything at level 6. I started out in EC doing HQ Bear hides and Bone chips, and Spiderlings Silk and worked my way up from there. You have to have decent weapons to kill stuff and that cost plat. No plat to be made in FoB that I can think of. Can only sell so many Bones. Kurns Tower if you get Lucky as hell on a few random rolls you might make some plat.

You have to get higher level wise to get anything worth having. And even then not easy. That is why having 4 alts or more, and jumping in between them, never ends well.

The higher you get the better the gear is that drops. So stick to one class, level it up to 30ish at least so you can loot some stuff to have or sell. Pretty much only way it is going to happen. Even if you start a Druid you HAVE to be level 26 or more to port. Same as Wizard. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If I did move to Freeport area, where can iksars sell stuff and use the bank? Would it require grinding faction before even being able to use the bank?

Sorry, not very familiar with iksars.

You can sell stuff to a Vender in WFP secret area at the end of the left wall when you zone in from EC. As for Banking and selling to other venders in EC WFP you can sneak behind venders and sell and buy. Bank you can do the same or the old though the wall trick. But I would want FD before trying that to get past Guards. You can buy and sell to any Gypsy Camp. Oasis of Marr has a camp. Not far from EC Tunnel. And there is a vender in the back of the tunnel you can sell and buy from but he wants crazy prices for stuff and you get ripped of selling to him. The others I mentioned are normal prices.

I am pretty sure you can get wolf form and train at the outside Monk trainer in WFP? I know you can get to NFP in wolf form.

Update: Now level 23 and still leveling up in North Karana. Haven't found anything better for my level. I prefer to hunt where mobs are half green but still give exp/half very low dark blue cons so I can keep the fighting constant. Any suggestions for leveling in the next 5 or 10 levels?

I have the AC/HP rings a set of cured silk and a couple other cheap pieces (azure sleeves, collar of undead protection, drolvarg mantle). So now it's basically save all my money for FBSS? How much do those go for on this server?

In a few more levels I plan to do Treant Fists quests and finish up the Qeynos headband quests. Aside from that I'm not really sure if there is anything else I should be working on.

Thanks in advance.

Early 20s, I was hunting the Dark Elf guards in Nektulous, 7 total. When I got bored there, I also went to highpass hold and hunted gnolls. Heart spiders in upper guk are good for your level and some of the frogloks. Lake of Ill Omen would be good too.

Late 20s to late 30's I spent hunting guards in HighKeep. They always drop a fine steel weapon, there are vendors and a bank there.

Do the heart spiders have a poison ability? I tried hunting spiders in East Karana but got wrecked by the poison.

Does hunting guards in HHK hurt your faction? What's the earliest level you can start killing in HHK (with above gear limitations).
