[Necro] Leveling after Kaesora? (42)
Hi all.
Returning necro again -- I have been charming in Kaesora from 34 to 42. took a long break but now back for the XP weekend and maybe getting back into the game a bit. Things down by the church are greening out (maybe 30-40% greens) which is probably fine for now but will need a new spot soon. (note: not doing the Xalgoz room himself, usually its perma camped by a high level) Should I go back to outdoor stuff? I love to tackle the highest ZEM that I can find and Kaesora was it for awhile. Am I too low for COM? It seems overly populated either way. Anybody have a good charming spot between 42 and 50? Specs are always camped or I would try those. I'd even fear kite or root rot again if I had a good ZEM location or spot with low hp mobs so it would go fast. Maybe its best to stick the greens out until 44 down here and then move to something with new spells like Lower guk or something. Thanks ! | ||

Lower guk can be dangerous solo. But there are plenty of undead charm targets for you.

I'd say stick it out in Kaesora until 44, then the fastest exp you'll find is soloing blood gills in LOIO. They have really low hp for their level, about as much as spectres, but they're a few levels higher than specs. Make sure you have DMF.
For the first few levels I feared kited them, then this necro showed me an infinitely faster and simpler strategy, that used the same amount of mana I was using per fear kite, while eliminating any worry of a feared goblin pathing into another. Just send your pet in, once goblin gets to 90% hit it with your highest level lifetap, then once it gets to 60% hit it with ignite bones. That will drop it to <20%, you will do over 51% damage, it will flee and your pet will quickly finish it off. Once I had practiced it a bit I was able to keep 8 goblins down, basically finishing off the last one within a minute of the first one respawning, so it was nonstop killing. I'd recommend the 4 down by the entrance (because they're easy single pulls), then the 4 that spawn at the two towers directly above the entrance. I tried COM a few times around this level, and the exp was far worse in groups, and charm killing was much more risky while producing about the same exp if everything went perfectly (which it usually didn't). | ||

I would assume once it's do able with no interruptions the XP is good. But referencing ZEM the fact is as a comparison to Kaesora for example Guk's ZEM is only ~7% where Kaesora's is 47% so Guk ZEM isn't really like other dungeons. Upper guk on the other hand is bomb XP. Unless of course the Wiki values are wrong which is what I've always gone by. | |||

What's in the wiki are the standard EQ Emulator values. I'm not sure if they're even based on the classic era or not, but either way the devs here didn't want people to know the official ZEM values, because people in live didn't know. So, they've changed some amount of the ZEMs from the EQ Emulator amount to a different amount. No one knows what they changed, or even how many zones, and researching it is a giant PITA. So the wiki just shows the ZEMs it shows as a "best guess", knowing they're not 100% (or probably even 80%) accurate.

54+ there is nothing that competes with charming in HS, but then again there's no equivalent to a dead simple blood gills camp at that level either. Btw, to wrap up the leveling suggestions: once you hit 49 off blood gills (or whatever else you decide to do) I'd hit HHK nobles/bards til 51 then once you get splurt, do felwithe guards til 54 and get rich. Nobles/bards will be better exp til 54, but the guards drop a minimum of 20p each, so you'll make about 5-7k per level or so. Once you hit 54, the real fun starts in HS. | |||

My only change is that when I don't need the HP instead of 189mana Lifetap for 226 dmg, I use the 130mana Torgar's Poison nuke for 220 dmg instead just to save the 69 mana.... cuz sometimes I am 10% mana or so when the 8th mob goes down. I can't imagine Lguk charming being faster at least not until I gain a few levels and resists are lessened and I really get into a groove, but the risk is so much higher either way. I'd be curious and might try when I get sick of goblins but it's hard to beat 8% XP every 13 minutes.... 45 is hell level but I am going to get 4% every 13 mins. Not bad at all for hell. Thanks again for posting this, phenomenal method and so much better than fear kiting. | |||
