Unstable evacs are pretty awesome, too. I just lean in and tell them it's a deity compatibility issue.

Iksar Exiles in Swamp of No Hope near the Trakanon Teeth zone line is another chill camp 29-34

Currently have a 30 bone knight and 35 monk soloing the following path: 29-34 Swamp of No Hope Iksar Exiles / Warsliks Woods brute caves 34-39 Mines of Nurga exit tunnels (https://wiki.project1999.com/Mines_of_Nurga_Goblin_Tunnel) 39-42 ?? 42-46 Dreadlands yeti caves I especially like the Nurga levels because that dungeon was one of my favorites on Live and it's basically never camped by anyone else. The goblins drop Mountain Death salts and give Brood of Di'zok faction, too, so I usually can get to apprehensive or better for those Chardok quests by the time I approach 49/50. Definitely going to do some Howling Stones in the 50s. Not a fan of Karnor's Castle, so we'll see how it goes when the levels start slowing down. Might just give Lower Guk and Sol B a shot during bonus weekends. We could potentially duo any of these spots for some respectable exp

DizzyBum posted:Okay. Well uh. I guess I should have logged out while I was making lunch, because I came back 20 minutes later and apparently I lost three levels from getting spawn-camped over and over at the Cazic-Feerott zone line (I bound myself right in the corner on the Feerott side) by one of the ogre bouncers right outside the temple. Was this on the Blue server? Do those corpses still have a rezz timer?

Gnome Necro. Dump creation points into Dexterity. Melee caster gets a bunch of cheap dexterity gear, memorizes Vampiric Embrace, and goes to town on everything.

My bone knight is now soloing the entrance to Splitpaw at 33. If anyone has an alt in Blue in the 30-37 range they want to duo with,, the exp moves fast.

You can solo with anything if you're patient and persistent enough. Sqid did a solo rogue to what, 60, awhile back?

Depends on the content, but add druid/wizard/bard to that list if quad/swarm kiting counts. Shaman/Necro/magician/enc/monk are effective solo classes afaik. I can solo animals into the mid-50s on ranger using snare and Panic Animal. Play what sounds like fun to you. Anything but erudite paladin is a good time.

Dizz posted:kinda interested in what a 6 bard party can do. Everybody gets three buffs on their bar and every bard twisting two songs would fill the rest of the buffbar since they're no longer separating spells from songs. Just a constant 10-12 song chain on everybody would be interesting though. On second thought, I'd split the bards into 3 squads of 2. Have two players swarm while the other 4 charm and exp somewhere close. Maybe ball up for sing-a-long-time during respawns?

Another downside to paladins are the stretches of 10 levels between spells. You'll be using the same level 19 heal when you're 28, healing outside of an emergency Lay of Hands is more of a downtime while medding thing in my experience. I was disappointed to discover that Lay of Hands doesnt even complete heal past a couple thousand hit points. Apparently it has a hard cap as an ability?

First things you'll want to get are some backpacks and probably banded armor for both you and the Shadow knight. It's cheap and easy to craft, about 50 platinum (the game currency) would be a good target for spell money as you need it. At level 8, go back to the cleric guild and train the meditate skill with one of the skill points you earn each level. It will help with your mana regeneration while sitting

If you're a mage on Blue or need stalking probes (5 charge eye of Zomm), I can craft them on my cleric for anyone in need.

Currently have a 35 monk and 35 Necro in Mines of Nurga (Blue server) that are slowly soloing to 40. If anyone has an alt in the 24-39 range, I'm down to duo. The zone has a Raiders of the Lost Ark feel to it, except instead of snakes it's full of goblins.

I like that they're opening Veksar with the classic content. Ambivalent on the pvp but might check it out. What does "levels locked" for 4 days mean?

By good weapons, we're talking about a Staff of Writhing from the kobold noble and some cheap dagger off Crookstinger. Classic bone knight can also wear golden Efreeti armor from the planes. I'll probably make one on the server and copy my build over.

Yeah I did that too on my Iksar Necro and had the skullcaps done by the mid-20s. It was a fun challenge. Another one I'd recommend is trying to finish the SoulFire quest under 30. Running invis through Mistmoore Castle and Splitpaw felt like a stealth mission.

I'm hearing some hype about it, but my guess it most people are waiting on more details about the server. I might make one or two characters if there's a drive to try the server. Right now a couple of us are playing new gnome mage alts on Blue, about levels 7-9 in Warrens if anyone wants to join a semi-regular exp group. Exp has been flying.

Iksar exiles in Swamp of No Hope near Trakanon's Teeth have 9-10 dark blues at that level. Can probably take them to 32 on a 6:40 respawn

Classic rangers don't get SoW until level 39. You've been warned.

Gnome Necro. Creation points: 25 Dex/5 int or strength. Melee everything with a pet and Vampiric Embrace. It's a good time and more engaging than fear kiting

You won't be using Emissary of Thule until level 59, I'd consider that 20k part of the leveling process and not trade for that spell up front.

Dude if you resurrected Swashy, I'd pull my Iksar warrior out of retirement. You're not wrong though. Like 80% of this game is unplayable with a job and kids, but I still enjoy the parts of the nostalgia trip.

Dizz are you on the green or blue server? I leveled my warrior from 29-32 in Dalnir. The group had a bard and two enchanters, which is probably the necessary crowd control for that dungeon. Exp flew though.
