Sorry for all the druid questions but ...

[Troxx]

Let's assume I have an hour or so to play during the day so groups are out.

I'm level 51 on my druid and have a Lumi Staff. I tried DL for a bit once I hit 51. TD is better so there to 52 on spirocs is a given. After 52 (and until bear bit charms) what represents best bang for the buck with limited time (60-90 mins a session). Should I stay at spirocs? Slow and steady xp with good blue spawns is really nice. Very little competition is also a plus. I play Euro zone so it's mostly empty most places I go.

- 60 to 90 minutes playtime
- happy to charm vs quad (i have lumi staff)
- cash potential off mobs is a huge bonus and offsets xp/hr
- close to a port hub for random port $$ also a big plus
- faction for coldain is always welcome, but I'm not sure how EW vs GD xp is

Thoughts? Recommendations? I'm an EQ vet but a druid newb.

Quading wyverns or otters in CS is an option, vendor gems, armor gems, and crusty pieces. There's a guide for otters on the wiki I think, once you learn the ones to harmony it's pretty easy. Armors in WL are pretty similar as well.

I still do some CS on my wizard at 52. Normally sufficient mobs during off times.

Wyverns and drakes are what I quad, but beware the drakes cast a 500dmg/cancel magic AoE.

can easily do at least half of bear pits at 52

I would second quadding wyverns in CS until 53/54. Just grab a potg before you start, keep levi up and harmony any named / cobalt drakes you don't want. Either quad them on the beach or around the rock on the way to the SS tower. Charm breaks can be rough and frequent when you start the bear pits at 53/54 but stick with it.

I started bear pits at 52 and it's the fastest experience you will get. Root breaks are rough until your 56 root but it can be dealt with, just need to pay attention. A retired HK druid has a video floating around here if you need directions to the pits and/or strat.

I could not imagine doing 54 quadding, i would probably uninstall and go outside

[Omsk]

Would definitely recommend CS wyverns. Just watch for Yvolcarn and don't go near the Othmir in wolf form.
