Monk solo leveling guide?

[drktmplr12]

20ish is a rough point for a monk, much like upper 40s. Just not much to do solo-wise that is practical.

I managed to do goblins in LOIO and avoided the shamans. Once I was 23 or so, I rotated between WW groups and sarnak fort. When I wasn't grouped, I was fear kiting mobs in LOIO near the lake by the FM zoneline choke point. I understand fear kiting does not work as well anymore though.. it was truly OP. Fear kited from 25 to 50 basically..

My roadmap looked something like this:

15-22 Oasis Orcs and DW Crocs
20-30 LOIO goblins, sarnak fort, Lake by FM zoneline
30-38 Split paw spires, SK birdhouse (harriers and avocets)
35-42 Solo guards in high keep omg so many xp once you learn it.
38-45 FM fort and soloing non casters around it. Gotta be real careful there
43-50 SolB noble camp, bats n bugs, GREAT solo spot is yeti cave in north east dreadlands KC side.
50-52 KC [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] and solo hill giants for cash

Then i quit because i hate KC, that place brings the worst out in lots of people.

Can I start on HK guards at 30?
Which area is good for this level?

KC is an evil place that no one should ever go to. I can't believe how popular it is on this server. I won't step foot in there other than for raids. Horrid exp, crappy loot, bad faction hits. I don't know why anyone goes there.

Because it's steady exp, steady loot, and insignificant faction hits. Trains are the real problem of the zone, and I think they just add to it's charm. Fleeing for your life is one of the few times EQ gets fun and exciting.

1-20 I did in FOB/Kurns
20-25 Goblin camp in WW (theres a few) watch out for Grachnist
25-30 Sisters/Dwarves/Gargs in OOT (amazing plat)
30-35 Halfling Guards in Misty (more good plat)
35-39 Guards in NK (tower near gypsy or the three at SK zoneline)
39- BBM guards

This is of course for evil master race that dont give a rip about faction [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Where's a good place to solo at 51 monk? Preferably in Kunark.

[SamwiseRed]

anyplace you can kill single dark blues?

[Infectious]

51 to 54/56 you can do nobles in highkeep. Bank in zone, supplies and merchants to sell to.

I'm wondering about this as well. Also, is this a fairly popular camp?

You can do HK guards at 30 yeah, but there are some you can't kill and some npc's to watch out for.

It's really get exp and money - but it seems like a lot of monk/shaman twinks kill them but there are plenty to share. There's like 3 floors of guards so just explore and find the ones you can kill. I think I did them up to 40 on my monk - even when they turn light blue.
