"Skeletons are Number One! Flesh just slows you down."
Hell yeah made it to 24 as my bard just grouping it up. Pretty scared of learning to swarm kite though. So far I am enjoying the grouping experien ce more than soloing. Mistmoore is great exp but unless I can join a pond group I might as well just not play at all since nothing soloable is nearby. What are some good other spots a mid 20s caracter can do thats not MM or Unrest?

You should check out highkeep hold for the goblin smashing groups in the basement. Great exp until the early 30s or whatever. You might find its a bit overcrowded, but put your name down on a list and it shouldnt take too long. This should hold you over until more camps in MM open up for you like CE and CY, etc. Sol A is also a way underhunted and excellent exp dungeon that you may be able to tackle in some form soon.

That was what went live on Jan 31st, seems like if you're over level 5 as long as you're not trying to send faster than every half second you should be good? How quickly were you sending messages?

Thanks for the info, I hadn't checked the patch. I'll level my guy up to 6. Some messages got through and others didn't and I couldn't figure out what was going on. I guess sending "In EC" to someone falls under the lowercase rule no matter how long you wait after your previous message.

You should practice swarming in Steamfont or something since it is close, while you wait. A good bard can do like 30-46 in a few hours of OT swarming, and 40-50 in a few hours of DL swarming. Which means you could bring some idiots along and get rich.

If there are any people looking for a rematch in Tower of Frozen Shadow, I've got my fully keyed warrior parked in Iceclad for a couple nights. Maybe we can luck into some more upgrades for people.

I haven't tested it yet, but my understanding was that the Master key just took you to 7 from the first floor. Has anyone confirmed it working on all of the mirrors in the zone? (if not, we'll want to kill Vhal'sera on 6 which sounds like a nuisance)

1st floor: No key required. Click in from Iceclad.
2nd floor key: Crystal Key - dropped by a large undead gnoll on the 1st floor
3rd floor key: Three Toothed Key - dropped by an angry librarian on the 2nd floor
4th floor key: Frosty key - dropped by an enraged shadow beast on the 3rd floor
5th floor key: Small rusty key - dropped by Cara Omica on the 4th floor
6th floor key: Bone finger key - dropped by an enraged relative on the 5th floor
7th floor key: Large metal key - dropped by VhalSera on the 6th floor
Master key to all floors: Tserrina's Key - dropped by Tserrina Syl`Tor on the 7th floor

from the p99 wiki. i wouldn't know personally, though

It will. But it also gets you to floor 1.

Tried it. It's just like the others. You basically need 6-7 slots to carry keys for each floor you want to return to. Nothing too special unless you want to farm Tserrina

i'm down for some stuff this weekend on my 55 necro.

at the very least we could get more guildies at the appropriate levels keyed up for Sebilis. if not we can do something else. first island plane of air? :P

also, something that guild groups do that isn't camped to hell like sebilis -- we could key up people for charasis and try one of the better loot wings. so far there i've only been doing north wing, entrance, and basement, mostly duo but some solo.

I just finished the eyepatch of plunder quest last night on blue and boy oh boy. Between the stormfeather and lodi pieces i think i put at least 3 inches on and considerable density into my neckbeard. What a psychologically terrifying quest.

Great item though.

Some best in slot armor items go poof, but you can still farm primals albeit slower.

they're a few items, but the amount of drama over them not dropping anymore is insane.

most notable of these items being:

Shroud of Longevity
Sceptre of Destruction
Mask of Tinkering

primals still drop from one npc.
