Advice for a level 20 druid

[davidinmelb]

Hi all .. I have gotten to 20 largely on my own but was wondering where would be the best areas to find groups. Struggling to find.

Can heal a little, snare, buff and dot when my mana allows.

Hey there, you're doing great! Now that you can teleport, the world is more open to you. Your outdoor powers all work at Unrest, so consider being a harmony king in there. You could level from 20-30 pretty quickly in there, but you can also solo well too outdoors as you have been. Try to mix it up a little to keep it fresh. Consider Highkeep goblin basement when you are level 24-34 as well.

As Cen said, Unrest can be a good spot to find a group at 20.

Other possible group places:
-upper guk near the zoneline to lower guk
-mistmoore pond area

Good solo spots if you cant find a group:
-charming deepwater gators in oasis (good through 22 or 23)
-charming in Overthere along the East zone wall north of the warsliks woods zoneline (can charm tigers and rhinos to kill sarnaks, cactuses, and cockatrice)
-root/rotting giants in warsliks giant fort, though might be better starting around 24, use harmony to pull singles (can possibly form a group here if you see someone soloing)
-charming mammoths in Everfrost peaks (may be more like 24+, it's been a while)

Another option is questing. Taken from the Per-Level Hunting guide (https://wiki.project1999.com/Per-Level_Hunting_Guide#Hunting_Spots_20-24), You can repeat the Slaythe (https://wiki.project1999.com/Slaythe) portion of this quest (https://wiki.project1999.com/Eye_of_Stormhammer_Quest) if you are at least indifferent with the rivervale rogue faction. If not, then it's doable after 24 with wolf form.

Good for DRU. Slaythe is spawned by asking Bronin Higginsbot, on top of the southernmost Wall Tower in Misty Thicket, for a 'small favor'. After that run north along the west side of the Great Wall until you reach the north zone wall, where Slaythe is waiting. Kill the frog and and turn his leg into Bronin Higginsbot for The Bloody Shank (quest), then you can respawn Slaythe.
Requires indifferent faction with the Rivervale Rogue faction, DeepPockets (wolf form works); Bronin will not spawn Slaythe at lower faction. Killing Slaythe lowers Frogloks of Kunark, while turning his leg in raises Highpass Guards, Carson McCabe, Merchants of Highpass, Corrupt Qeynos Guards, Freeport Militia

VERY good, safe and steady EXP. Druids (with wolf form and levitate, to jump off the stumps west of the wall to get to the top of the tower and respawn) can do this especially quickly. Just nuke/kite (unsnared) down the wall, avoiding the guards, and finish him off near the tower for a quick respawn.

/who all 18 30

Look at where people are, send tells to anything looking interesting.

Go to SK

Stay there till like lvl 39 or 42.

Thank me later.

Also --- LOIO

and EJ

and Trakanon's Teeth.

and BW.

---- avoid OT and FV like the plague unless you can root bards in pvp, because you smartly rolled up on red99

[davidinmelb]

Appreciate all of that information!

[NenshouStar]

if you want to be grouping a lot, it's not too late to reroll from druid as a main. you're basically a solo class later on, unless a group is seriously hurting for any type of healer/are in a zone where you can charm animals for extra dps also. early leveling is fun enough and getting to those port levels are exciting. just be prepared for a life of solo root rotting or quadding when the groups dry up on you.

[davidinmelb]

Seems that way.. I have been charming animals in EK last couple of nights and scored 2 levels so that may be my go to for a while )

Thanks!

[davidinmelb]

I will definitely give Slaythe a try also!
