Is Grik The Exile good camp at 55?

Goo camp unfortunately isn't as good now, the smaller goos that split off got an upgrade and are much tougher and aggressive, you end up burning a lot more mana than before

That is quite unfortunate. Can the Shaman pet solo them while you recover?

Thanks both, PatChapp and Snaggles. Good info in both posts.
Enjoy Project 1999!

I think they're just garbage. They hit hard and you kill 3 goos with 3khp+. For mobs that are 40-44 that's a big deal. Kunark mobs in the same range have like 5khp. I did them with the chanter animation and I think I noticed the little ones miss more being lower level so maybe a melee who can split the baby goos with root could solo them good or a necro/mage since they don't have trash pets. Also, at 56 the baby goos coned green and yielded no exp so that's a whole lot of energy expanded for nothing. I'm not sure if a party in their mid 40s would get exp off all 3, that would make it more worthwhile.

I'm not sure what OP considers "hassle free" but HS basement could be solid. If he means pure dad camps there aren't all that many left at 56 and since the server is top heavy they're often contested. I'm personally having a hard time finding open solo spots at 58 nowadays, sometimes I have to hit 4-5 spots before finding something open so the big ones like the FM giants, frost giants or the qeynos dudes can be very hit or miss. At least the geos seem to have enough room for everyone most of the time. I don't like them much but I may start hitting them more for that sole reason. Nothing more annoying than having 75 minutes to play and spending 45 trying to find something open.

Ugh bummer; that might have been a hasty suggestion then.

I did Dyrna in HK to like 56/7 and Neriak Arena to 60. There are other spots too. Felwithe for a little bit, Chardok entrance/exit, Nyzil Bloodforge. There are some other static weird blue cons similar to Grik but with more hps. Not to mention tons of stuff in BW.

With an EB item this might be another decent one. Depending on how bad you want to hunt the driftwood chests. It would be slower xp I bet…better exp modifier but slower repop and the PH seems it could occasionally be a green con.

City of Mist has been my go to for toons in the mid 50s. Mobs are all melee, easy to root rot or face tank with slow and JBB spam

I wouldn't waste your time at geos without an epic, they hit too hard to kill effeciently without root rotting and any form of root rotting without epic is going to be super ineffecient.

Seems to me a lot of non-epic 55+ shaman go to neriak and kill there. Not familiar with the camp but I know its a go to from other shamans I've seen leveling without epic 55+. I have seen someone grind to 60 at IGs but I agree I left after 55 because exp way too slow (although can make good money off wort pots). Might be worth grinding for the money to buy an epic MQ.

Thanks everybody for all the info.
