Thanks! It was exciting for sure. But the best part is that I now get to do it again, meeting different people on a different path. Befallen, Runnyeye - here I come!

It is with great regret that I inform any warrior approaching 50 that has been trying out some of the locations in this thread, the spot I mentioned for some lazy semi afk soloing, the pathing greater kobold that spawns roughly -160, -610, 15 in Naggy's lair (at a zoneline to SoldungA) stops being a blue con at level 51.

Now, the xp from the first level of green isn't too greatly diminished, but for me at least, the individual xp hit is no longer sufficient to sustain my interest in the spot. It doesn't seem an effective spot to make 52 (and presumably start sonic bats).

I'll drop a hidden spot I quite like if you want risk-free, commitment-free static spawns. Good races only:

Surefall Glade. Merdan Fleetfoot is a 38 warrior and Niera Farbreeze is a 40 ranger. Both have unlinked faction with no hits, you can beat them up in front of their ranger friends and they don't care. 6:40 spawns and city ZEM. Only problem is they both run and then jump in the water being super annoying. Great afk exp if you can snare or root.

Late to the party, but in my experience Bloodpoints aren't worth it in a world where Reavers/Narandi Lance are dirt cheap. Truncheon of Doom then switch to Reaver after a proc. It's also a lot easier to switch from a 2hander to a 2hander.

[Jimjam]

On a previous run I found Truncheon of Doom to Runed Blade to be decent. With slow, rune and evasive against some targets the incoming damage was minimised. That said, I’ve read others reporting it isn’t worth the dps loss (I’m guessing they had access to a > 40/40 weapon though).

If I can start putting reliable active time back into p99 again I’d be interested in getting my green war a sword of rile and maybe dropping a few levels to test out it’s effectiveness coupled with tod.

I still think the best way to solo is https://wiki.project1999.com/Silken_Whip_of_Ensnaring as first proc. Get the mob snared and you gain a ton of liberty with everything else. Later upgrade it with https://wiki.project1999.com/Tserrina's_Whip

It's been a while! I wanted to share a final update with you all.

I hit 60!

I did 55 to 57 on the Qeynos barbarian bank guards, and then the rest of it in Neriak Arena. With Evasive, ToD, and Reaver, I was surprised that I could even stand toe-to-toe in melee with Svunsa, a level 50 NPC, and put him on farm.

I updated my gear according to the ECTank magelo I put together with your help. Indiana is now as geared as EC reasonably allows, save for SS armor MQs which I'm not sure I want to pursue since I'm now max KoS to CoV having farmed up a guardian robe [You must be logged in to view images.

It's been a few months now and - surprise - I haven't deleveled. Warrior at 60 is just too good. I love Evasive. At 7 min cooldown, it's less like a discipline and more like a built-in class skill like Mend. I love having over 4000 HP unbuffed. Nothing can kill me, I can just casually walk out of the zone. I love melee spam, and my spam is even better with triple attack.

And finally, I love sightseeing all of the nostalgic places in Norrath with my indestructible tank. I defanged the Maid and Butler in Mistmoore. I took out the royals in Sol B. I killed Najena in Najena. For me, the old world is my EQ. If P99 is a museum, then the warrior for me is the best way to visit. See you around.

Congrats on finishing the solo journey!
