The 20 something blues on Fippy

Abraxos

So me and the wife made a Troll Shammy and a Dark Elf Mage. Figured we would have all bases covered. SOW, tank pet, invis, slow, quickness, heals, nukes etc. Things went really well after that 1st lvl and we didn't stop till around lvl 19 when Oasis became mostly gray. I asked, did a little research and everyone said "Go to South Karana" and we did. Pretty much one camp of ungodly social Centaurs and one camp of Aviaks that was always taken. We went to East Karana in search of Crag hounds and saw two blue mobs in about an hour, headed to HHK but the guards didn't like us and the Gnolls were mostly gray. Been trying for three nights to grab Shadowmen in Nektulos but always camped. Help!

After much running around we have tried Sol A and Lavastorm and Cazic at Various levels and will see one blue, one gray and then boom a red or three would kill us. We started during the Kunark era back in the day and cannot find anything resembling Dreadlands, LoIO, Frontier Mountains or anything for the 20's other than maybe Aviaks, Centaurs, and Spiders in Lava. We are 25 now but it's ungodly slow. It's either nothing to kill or knee deep dungeon wipe. I just seem to remember more wandering mobs back in the day? Haven't seen any outside gnolls at split paw or any zone overflowing with blues for this level?  Oasis had wandering mobs like the Caimans and Orcs to pull but I don't see that anywhere else for the 20's? SK was desolate except for low level lions and shadow wolves.

Should we try Mistmoore? Can evils sell over there? Is UGuk a constant train fest? i really would like more options than 25 lvls of dungeon crawling for XP? We both love the game but every character we made went to LoIO or Luclin to get thru the 20-30 range and are a bit lost?

Welcome back to Evercamp! Exactly my experience in early EQ that everyone misses and covets here on MMORPG.com!

We did Cazic Thule or Skeletons in Rathe Mountains in the day, my necormancer could solo a red skeleton for huge exp in Rathe.

You can try Mistmoore and of course you can sell there, have your wife (and you) make a newbie High Elf with maximum charisma and have them sell for you, now isn't that easy?

The bard in nektulos gives exp till 35 and you can just camp his spot with your pet and kill him while AFK, and you shouldn't get banned.

All are great for the mid-20 - 30's.

 

Also in regards to Upper Guk as you asked if it's always a train fest.  It can be, but upper guk is huge.  To avoid trains, simply avoid zonelines.  I see groups parked at the zone line to lowre guk or innothule swamp all the time.  Then they wonder why they get trained.  Well when people have accidental agro, they gotta zone somewhere, so obviously people run towards the zone.  Avoid the zones and you should be fine avoiding the trains.

I havent played in a long time, but u can go check Lake Rathe Tear or even Rathe Mountains. Good spots, then once you reach around level 30's just kill the Hill Giants.
