Bored running out of things to do

[A1rh3ad]

Leveled to 7 in the Nektulos forest then to 9 in northern ro and commons. Went back to the forest and tried fighting some mummies for different and got my arse handed to me. Getting tired of seeing desert and dark forest areas. Any ideas on what to do next? Kind of wanted to go back to field of bone which was fun but I dont think I want to take the trip just to pay for a port back.

[A1rh3ad]

Not a complaint thread, still having fun. Just looking for ideas.

Crossreference your level with recommended levels on this chart. It works pretty much from 1-60.

[Aaramis]

If memory serves, Nek 1-7, EC 7-10, WC 10-12 or 13, then Oasis crocs and orcs to 16 or 17, then I hit highpass.

Lavastorm and Najena are also options for you in these level ranges.

If porting is an option, then the sky is the limit really. As you said, FoB is great as is Kurn's.
Unrest is also a popular spot at 10+.

[Jimjam]

Guktop at the zone in. You can probably safely bind in Grobb.

[Expediency]

At level 9? There's about a dozen zones you could explore. Tons of low level dungeons in this game. Warrens is fun, guktop great exp always has a few people in it, kerra island if you want to be alone forever, blackburrow and crushbone are fun and have people in them.

Oh my god. Like fucking clockwork.

I smell someone in the honeymoon phase of EQ.
We'll see how long he lasts.

I'm going to be around for a while. You can expect to see me raiding end game in a few months.

I recommend to get a group of friends and hit befallen. Wonderful first dungeon near nektulos that you can explore and get a feel for. Also has a little bit of progression and great xp as well. If things hit the fan, you are close to your home bind spot AND EC tunnel for buffs is close as well.

Depends on class and desire to travel. The problem with exploring low-levels to xp in is that travel takes time and is dangerous. The main areas for lvl 9 players to group is Gfay, Crushbone, East Commons, Field of Bone, and Kurns tower.

[kgallowaypa]

I would NOT recommend to hunt in crushbone however as a dark elf because that ruins your indigo brotherhood faction -- the same faction as your home city in Neriak.

[Muggens]

Quit

You should venture to Feerrott / Swamp area. My Dark Elf SK was able to use the Troll and Ogre cities, so you could change your pace by exploring their starting areas in those two zones.

Qeynos area is also pretty fun. Qhills, Bburrow, WKarana, Erud's Crossing.

You should be evil enough to use the Qeynos Aqueducts area as a city no matter your class as a Dark Elf. Be careful of the human beggar Vin Moltar who roams the front of the Aqueduct system he was KOS to me and hit for 40-50, easy to avoid if you have invis, otherwise you will need to use an outside view to check around corners and be ready to swim back out to Qeynos North to escape quickly. However, the Qeynos Aqueducts has almost every trainer and even has a banker!

Ak-Anon area can be fun if you have invis to make it to the evil area?

Faydwer has no banks for evil race/class, although there is a neutral merchant at the Steamfont Mountains Druid Circle.

Toxxullia, Warrens, Kerra, Paineel is always an interesting place to venture if Qeynos turns out to bore you. I believe Dark Elves can go to Paineel? (not sure)

[thufir]

Befallen is a great place to cut your teeth if you want to experience classic EverQuest. Between avoiding the ghoul/Gynok PH and dealing with 4 spawns of necro + pet you will never be bored. Zone experience modifier (ZEM) is amazing, best in game.

Upper Guk also has a huge ZEM and you can do most of the entrance at your level. Less difficult than Befallen. Some OK loots here too, small gems and mesh armor. Buy/sell at Grobb nearby.

Warrens and Kerra Isle are decent spots too, lower ZEM, but the Warrens gives you faction with both good and evil Erudites along with the best cash for low levels, and Kerra provides uncontested killing with all the milk and fish you can drink and eat. Should be able to eventually hail the lawn guards in Paineel zone for keys to the heretic city and do your shopping and banking there, presuming you kill enough Warrens kobolds. You can turn in some kobold molars for a little XP and faction down there as well.

Blackburrow probably has the largest number of mobs in your level range, but it's a long walk from Nektulos (or from the Karanas if you can snag a port), and you won't be able to turn in the fangs without some help. Killing there will help your faction with the various Qeynos guards in the Karana areas, and the XP for turning in the fangs is very good if you can find someone to help you out with harmony and such.

Avoiding Crushbone is a good idea if you are a dark elf. No sense going out there and ruining your Indigo Brotherhood faction for basically nothing. The XP is good per mob, but it's almost always crowded as hell. Also Faydwer isn't a very friendly continent for a newbie dark elf.

Orc camps in East Commonlands are always an option too if you want to play it safe, get buffs from EC tunnelquesters and go out swinging, and it's close to Neriak. But that gets boring fast imo. That's the only outdoor camp I'd even consider at your level, btw.

Would definitely recommend hunting other players in Crushbone as a Dark Elf. :D

Indeed...

High maintenance.

[darkreap]

If you wanted to get past those tough early levels you could always beg for buffs at WC druid ring and kill wisps and spiders in WC. Seems to work pretty well and most druids are very generous with buffs. Keep greater lightstones and turn them in at the DE camp in Sro for some decent exp and plat.

Are you not the same idiot that was complaining about not getting a IP exempt within a few days? Said you would quiet blah blah blah? Why you backing down dude?

[LordRayken]

He was all over, posting non-stop. And now he's silent. I called it.

I'm just shutting my big mouth and waiting patiently for my exemption. I don't want to insult the people who brought us such a great game and take time out of their lives to help manage it.

[A1rh3ad]

Eating some humble pie basically.
