In general, Velious stuff is going to have way more HP (and thus worse exp) than Classic/Kunark.

Efreeti actually might be a really good option. I only say that because it's a known Shaman solo camp (at 60 with Torpor, and maybe at 58-59 with a Fungi), and a known Druid charming spot, so you have a location specifically known to be good for both classes, and you know it's a bit harder than either of you can solo ... plus it's in the old world with low HP mobs and some decent (not great) loot.

The only other places that people have mentioned which I've heard recommended for both classes is PoM and Chardok, but PoM is all about charming rats in the maze for Druids, and personally I had a hard enough time finding rats for just one person let alone two. Chardok is a classic but I went Chardok faction on Lora so I can't for sure say it's good for Shaman ... but based on others' reports I'm like 95% sure. If I were duoing my Shaman with my Druid (magically; they're on the same account) I'd try Efreeti or Chardok first myself.

P.S. There's a mini-guide to doing Efreeti written by the departed Iruinedyourday that you might find useful if you go: http://wiki.project1999.com/Nagafen%...r_Efreeti_Room

What? Efreeti isn't a "known Druid charm spot", in fact it hasn't a single animal. PoM isn't all about charming rats in the rat maze. There are no rats in the rat maze. Ratmen are not animals and cannot be charmed by druids.

Look Lora, please have a seat here. All your friends are here, and we all love you. But we'd like to have a talk about your addiction to "confabulating EverQuest game advice," and just tell you how that has affected all of us. It was one thing when you wrote that guide telling shamans a global cooldown clear item probably isn't strictly necessary, but this is going too far. This is a safe space. We're just worried about you. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I like Loramin's guides and advice, where's your contribution to the community?

[zodium]

My favorite part of Loraguides is when he says something trivially wrong, but still pretends like it comes from personal experience and not half remembered third hand information.

[Tortok]

PoM is great but a bit crowded lately. Get McStinkles from atop since rats are humanoid and cannot be charmed by druids as already stated.

For Efreeti it's bring your own bat. Keep it alive since you ll have to run a bit to get a new one. No animals at efreeti.

What is there for a druid to charm in Chardok?

All the little dino doggies

Thanks Legidias. I am not sure why it never crossed my mind that those could be charmed by a druid. Makes perfect sense though.

What makes Chardok a paradise for druids?

Well since it's revamp it has all that awesome loot!!
Druids can charm the little stegasaurus dinosaurs!
Druid/shaman can stack Malo and Glamour, making charming easy.
Being able to evac to zoneline when shit hits the fan is a nice oh shit option.
Druids just have the tools needed for a good time in Chardok!
Watch captain/Bridge keeper was an awesome camp myself and another shaman duo'd.
