Hand them in as you find them,

or wait till you out level blackburrow?

Better keep them, you still get good exp from them by the time gnoll no more give you exp, you're better using the zem while you can...

If you like Blackburrow and you don't have a specific place you want to go at level 12, then keep them and unload the sauce when you're done.

If you don't enjoy Blackburrow so much and you want to try <zone> at level 12 or so, then dump then along the way so you get there faster and be done with it.

There is no best answer, it's your life, your character, make the decisions that makes it more fun to you ;)

I'm in a conundrum; stay at bb (stackable bankable xp and strong blues to kill) or hit up willowisps (also bankable xp, better plat but no group potential).

Is anyone doing mid late teens at permafrost or Guk recently?

Are spiked rusted shoulder pads still sought after by enchanters?

Hand them in when your bags are completely full of them.

Also be aware gnoll fang exp got a nerf mid kunark, pre mid kunark the exp reward was much higher. but they're still decent I hear.
imo wisps with a good magic weapon for G.lightstones are a better option now-a-days. Crushbone belts are another option. skip shoulder pads imo.
Some crazy kids talk about a bread quest too I hear.

Good post, but I suggest Roblox for the best pizza delivery simulator.

I usually save up about 200 fangs before I turn them in.

Usually I'm 10 or 11 when I do the turn in.

While getting fangs, I also gather up as many putrid rib bones and rabid wolf pelts as possible.

Then after I turn in the fangs, I'm high enough to do rabid grizzlies and bandits in WK.

I'm not sure if I have ever done the WK bandits... time to party hard!

They drop sashes you can turn in at Qeynos for xp and bronze weapons

Dont forget you can turn in the rewards from the gnoll fangs for more exp. its a minor bump by the level you are considering turning in the fangs but its free

I finally brute forced a patched gnoll fur bundle and found a spiked collar. As such, I can reveal 200 fangs give approx. 15 yellows of experience from level 14 (including moonstone hand ins).

My skills are now 3 levels behind.

What level can you do bandits?

I think bandits are between 13-15?

on my dr00d I leveled to 21 with fangs alone, if you are a wizard or a druid you can do bread quest till your brain melts around 45

Is there a minimum level for bread quest? My brother has a 29 druid he wants to grind out some levels on.

There are multiple places you can bring the bread, right?

Which one is the best? I've kinda wanted to do this on my druid.

Bring the bread anywhere besides North k. Like basically don't follow that guide video I made anymore that's outdated and doesn't give you any experience but everyone seems to love the f e e r r o t t because the bread person is right near the Druid portal I don't know what Wizards are doing right now

If not for having to go through 2 zones to get to 3rd Quarter I'd say it's the best city in EQ :p

I love the atmosphere of the city, but yeah, the several zones is annoying.

From 19-44, the (Feerrott version of the) quest is the most consistent source of XP you'll find. I know a druid doing it into her 50's, and she plans to go to 60. Different strokes.

You may stop earlier than 44 from sheer mindnumbing, but you can always come back to top off a level, make up death xp losses, etc.

Can WE Druids do the feerrott bread quest?

Just tried it on my WE druid. Innkeeper was dub to me and had no problem doing the turn-in. Decent exp and plat. Ran into about six other druids doing bread runs.

Yes, and doing it will raise faction for the turn-in NPC, too. Do enough, you get max ally with Clurg, Oggok Guards, and Oggok Merchants.

You can eventually bank there. (Just don't wander into the SK, Warrior, or Shaman guild areas.)

Does the SK to NK bread quest still work?

I did two levels worth of bread that that was enough to go from kos to threat with the guards. So, probably a solid 4 levels (level 31-35). A good 250-300 turn-ins.

Yes but nerfed to being worthless. Don't waste your time.

I just did the bread quest for the first time on my level 16 Barb Shaman. I hadn't read any of these posts so I did the turn in in NK. I only had eight sashes to turn in and the experience was terrible. I wasn't going to do the quest again, but I may try Feerot now that I've read this info. I assume that if druids can do the turn in there then my Shaman should be ok to do it.

You should be fine. The guards outside Ogguk are not the same faction as the innkeeper. So just stay clear of them. After about 100 or so turn-ins you'll be able to bank in the city.

You can; the reason the bread quest is druid heavy is their ability to port nearby to the quest giver (easy NK->SK run) or to the Feerrott turnin NPC, and gate to the other.

I'm thinking of starting up again. Haven't played in a year or two.

I might start in Qeynos since I never have. Can an evil character do most of these xp quests like Fangs, Lightstones, etc? I was considering doing a Necro or Mage. Most people seem to think Necros are much more fun but I'm concerned about being locked out of quests.

Lightstones are a gypsy quest, so I'm pretty sure anyone can do them. Gnoll fangs are a different story: you have to turn them in to the Warrior guild leader of either Halas or of Qeynos, and both stand in the relative middle of their cities, surrounded by mobs that will be KOS to you (EDIT: actually maybe not if you're starting in Qeynos; I might be thinking of evil characters that start elsewhere).

If you are KOS you might be able to use tricks like Hide or having someone cast Invisibility on you just before the turn-in, but I think you'll probably want to do some other quests (or kill some mobs that give faction) first.

Thanks guys. I was planning on mostly soloing and Necro seems like it'd probably be more fun than Mage but idk. It's always hard as f to make a decision on what to play.

A part of me is tempted to do a Barbarian but I did level a Shaman to 48 already on Red Server in the past. I think I'll play Blue this time but idk if I'd do Shaman again.

Untwinked Warriors/Rogues are pretty awful at soloing I imagine, so Barb is probably out I guess if that's what I wanna do.

I don't want to twink or take handouts either since it's more fun to gear up myself.

Only thing I guess I am decided on is starting in the Qeynos/Halas/Erudin areas since I've done the Butcherblock leveling scenario a lot so I'd like to try something new. And the Western zones are I imagine less populated so probably a good choice if I'm mostly soloing?

If you're considering Necro, take a look at going Iksar.

As a Necro, you will use your Lich buffs 99% of the time. Iksar health regen really helps mitigate some of the health drain the buff causes.

Don't worry about being KOS, since Necros get invis and FD.

You can easily gain access to Freeport necro guild with 4 bone chips and banking is easy with FD.

I have thought about it but I wanna level near Qeynos and also everyone goes Iksar so the stubborn part of me wants to do something unusual like a Human Necro.

I probably won't ever raid either. I dunno. I'll worry about that part if I ever get to 60.

Actually, can a Human Necro even start in Qeynos? I hadn't considered that part, lol. I can't remember if they have a guild over there or not. If not, I guess I'd have to go Erudite.

They can.

I believe Humans that worship Bertox start there.

That's cool. That's niche enough that I almost feel like I have to do it. It'd be something different at least.
