Hello folks, I recently started playing and have just gotten to level 19 in Kurns tower and it seems its time to move on. I've heard Guk is the best place to head next but I'm a little hesitant since it dosent seem like theres anywhere close by where I could bind for my inevitable corpse runs. Is there anywhere similar closer to home where I could go or is there a safe bind spot near Guk I'm not aware of?

Hello! I never been to guk for exp so I can’t say that much about it but here’s what I did pretty recently on my Iksar monk.

-23 Kurn’s top floor or basement
23-25 unrest (can prolly stay longer). You can bind in greater faydark and sell at Druid rings in butcherblock.
25-40 Solusek eye. Great exp modifier and cash. Can solo/group and sell to merchants in lavastorm or temple of Solusek.

Then you can do city of mist, Lower Guk or continue to kill gnomes in Solusek a till lvl 45 ish.

I'm 25 now and had been looking at either Unrest or Mistmoore, can you bind anywhere within GFaydark? I had assumed it was only inside Kelethin. I had also assumed that druids near port rings in any zone were KoS to iksar, maybe thats just in WC.

GFay is a bind anywhere zone. Ive had melee chars find a Wizard port to Gfay and ask them to bind me at the spires

Vendors at druid rings are nuetral. You will be able to sell at the Steamfont/Butcher rings without problems. At the WC rings, there are two druids behind the vendor that will aggro. At a higher level you can sell there without those druids attacking you

OK if you need that explained Haghar, Kurn's Tower sucks big balls for xp past 20 and only a fool would grind out there past when you can go to tons of other much better places? Happy with the not really needed to be said argument that apparently you needed? OK.

Just soloed a charbone in Kurn's caverns at lvl 21 and got 4.5% experience. I see your point.

Yes that is possible but a lot of people fuck up their mole man faction and they're a bunch of necros/sk which are deadly at the low level..
Furthermore there are better places to get even more exp. Just because you killed ONE mob that gave you 4% doesn't mean every mob down there will. There is level variance.

Glad it works for you, but for the other 90% it's bad advice to stick around kurns past 20. It just causes zone hate because that one dude who's level 20+ is sucking up all the mobs. Some people don't even know about the caverns and for good reason.. there are better places to get exp at level 20.
But hey for some people it's hard to let go of something that's good even after it's no longer good.

feel free to tell me i'm wrong and fight me about it but facts are facts. and the fact is there are better places to get exp at level 20. period.

The skellies around barrack will be blue until 24-25. Not sure how this can be considered to “suck big balls”? Kurns have a great ZEM and it’s easy to pull singles.

Yes spend the next 20 minutes looking for another blue con among all the green cons. I went to Upper Guk after Kurns it was great experience until around 26 near the Lower Guk dead side zone. I hear SolA is good after that, I'll let you know.

Also Kurns is usually max camped with less than 10 people in the zone. Also putting that out there.

2/3 of the skeletons in the caverns are either icebones or charbones. The other 1/3 are greater scalebones which are blue at 20-21. There is no misinformation in any of my posts. The caves will sustain 1-2 people with skeleton spawns into 22-23, easily, assuming you have not messed up burynai faction.

Additionally, the vast majority of the time I play in Kurns there is no one hunting in the caves so I don't see how it would cause "zone hate". Lastly, anyone trying to hunt down there before 19-20 unless they are massively twinked are going to have a tough time with the charbones.

While it is your prerogative to disagree with me, do not say that I am spreading misinformation - I am not.

GL to the poor soul who has to do a corpse run in kurns caverns.
smh

if you're not twinked don't even attempt kurns caverns, if you are give it a shot. But it's exp isn't good vs other places at that level.
Haghar is clearly unwilling to admit this.

There is a zoneline literally in the middle of the caverns and skeletons aren't social in Kurns. If you died down there it is either because you are AFK or are using a potato for a keyboard.

That's a zone OUT,. you can not zone in from there. There is also mobs there. If your plan is to run out before you die. haha good luck.

So to get your corpse from down there you gotta start from the entrance and get to a reasonable distance to your corpse with all the undead and potential mole man in your way.
VS going to level 18 on the top floor and if you die up there you can /corpse through the ceiling. it's easier to go to a better zone that is safer and provides consistent better xp.

Did you not read my earlier post where I specifically stated that my entire argument to exp in the caverns is predicated on the assumption that your Burynai faction isn't fucked? No?

This must mean you win and we should all fight each other for mobs in kurns while you go to another zone and laugh at us. ;)
You sure do have a strong opinion for someone who joined less than 2 months ago. anon alt?

On the topic. Iksar Warrior level 19,. group with a healer and go to guk, mistmoore, oasis, unrest, etc..

So you're basically stating that the age of my forum account has a direct correlation to the validity of my opinion. Lol.

If you have no actual substance to contribute to the conversation then please exit the thread that way.

Just to throw in my 2 cents... there's no vertical limit to /corpse

I've died many times in the caverns, walked in the middle of the main room and did /corpse to retrieve it.

This user is a known troll, listen to him at your own peril.

25-31 the best experience one can have on P99 is Highhold Keep hunting goblins in the basement. At 31-40 the castle entrance and courtyard in Mistmoore are pretty hard to beat.

HHK is an over-populated camp. It is great exp if you get a spot in a group, but most of the time you'll find yourself waiting. Meanwhile, you can solo, duo, or even full-party through Sol A goblins and get the same amount of money (sol a gobs also drop Ore and FS weps), while also having a merchant conveniently located in the same zone.

SolA is the shit and grouping at the Bar camp when I was leveling my first character was some of the most fun I've had on the server

Solo’d my ogre warrior in UGuk from 7-43 in the span of 2 weeks on and off. No twinkage, just bandage macro. It was safe and fun.
