Unrest is damn good. Lots of mobs to charm in yard and the ZeM is VERY hard to beat. Can zone out if trouble quick also.

I meant to add that the Orc mercenaries in HHP are also rogues and put out ridiculous damage. KSing full 6 man groups in fun.

I was there from 18 to 22 and most are still blue at that lvl.

Just make sure that you root the mob your pet is fighting when it is low on health, back pet off then mem blur it. That way you get 100% of the experience for the kill

1. Go to EK
2. Pull crag spider to guards by merchants by Gorge and let them beat down spider
3. Charm spider when it's low on health
4. Break charm and nuke for 2-3% per kill

Leveling my Enchanter up mostly by solo charming too; just hit 22 last night.

14-19 in Oasis soloing Crocs or grouping for Orc Highway.
19-22 soloing in Loio or grouping for Unrest/Upper Guk.
22 currently and I'm charming in the Overthere. Tried grouping/soloing in Mistmoore but its just way over-camped right now.

Duo'ing with a Druid/Mage/Necro has been way more fun/efficient than 90% of the full groups I've been in. It really depends on the partner knowing how to duo, though.

This, IMHO, is a waste of time/mana. At this level you should just be fighting as many dark blues as possible and they should be killing each other at about the same rate;
All you need to do is:
Pull Mob A with tash, Charm.
Pull Mob B with Tash, Root, sic pet.
Break charm when they're both at <20%, root your former pet, cast Choke on both of them, then sit down til the Exp flows.
Rinse and repeat, that simple.

This is how I did it. And was usually FM when the time came to kill them. I always found it funny when I got solo exp for 2 mobs and only casted 7 spells, 3 of which cost almost no mana.

I'll second the notion that trying to break pet or blur mob at low hp to get 100% of the exp is a waste of time. Especially at low lvls. It costs FAR too much mana and takes too much time to break and re-charm pets or memblur (multiple times?) each mob and nuke it. Better off just killing the damn thing getting your 50% exp and moving to the next mob. If you've got a good pet it'll be tearing through stuff anyway and you can likely kill 2 mobs in the time it takes to kill 1 the tricky way and you'll spend a lot less mana to do it.

Alternatively you could just find somebody to duo with which I highly recommend. Many classes make good duos with encs and completely eliminates the issue of pets taking your exp. Just mem shallow breath and tag everything with it and you get all the exp and can save your mana for when charm breaks to mez/root/recharm/whatever. Enc/Enc is an extremely potent duo if you have good synergy and play well. I do it with my friend all the time but it helps a lot that we use Vent to coordinate stuff. I don't think it'd be nearly as good without voice comm. Another very good one is Cleric. Druid/Sha both work decently too.


Note: I'm not 100% sure the Shallow Breath part is necessary. Somebody told me even if you're duoing that if the pet does 100% dmg it takes exp so I've always tagged everything with lvl 1 nuke just to be safe. Maybe someone else can confirm for sure if this is the case or not?
