That's true. Thanks for clarifying, I should have worded that more clearly. What I meant to say is what brecon pointed out.

Ghoulbane's proc doesn't make up for the terrible ratio, you're dealing way better dps by using a better weapon. Also, stick to classic zones where mobs have less HP and deal less dps than Kunark/Velious mobs.
When i was leveling up on live pre kunark, ghoulbane was an amazing weapon to own, great ratio for classic. i usually proced 1 to 3 times each fight (with low high elf dex), it helped me solo better for sure.

unrest is a great spot for your level. lots of solo mobs up around the fireplace area. can move to basement when those green out and the hags up in the knight room are a 6m respawn.

No doubt Ghoulbane was a viable weapon in classic. Our weapon options were very poor in the era of EQ you are talking about. I remember a Mithril 2-hander was like the most uber tradeable weapon back then. However, there's plenty of affordable weapons introduced in Kunark and Velious that will out-dps Ghoulbane significantly.

...then use your mana to root and lull with no downtime to sit and med. if you have excess mana stun (which mitigates damage).

the only reason to ever DD as a solo paladin xping is if your camp is so few mobs that you have to wait on respawns.
Great points.

Original argument: Vitamin C is important. Potatoes and radishes have more than oranges so you should never eat oranges.

Counter argument: No, oranges actually have 50 mg per serving vs around 25 for potatoes and 17 for radishes.

New argument: Whatever, spinach has more iron than oranges so you should still never eat oranges.

I'd just say fuck it and order a pizza then... Not like anyone who's into spinach is going to see much end-game on this server anyways. You should just eat what you enjoy eating!

Not to derail the fascinating vegetable and fruit discussion, but I actually just did Hermit in SK between 24-28 when I wasn't grouped in HHK Gobs. 2Min respawn, barely damages you and some fine steel drops.

Since it's a bit vague, I`ll keep a list of where I solo while I'm lvling and post it up around 50-ish in case anyone else has the same question.
