Looking for a high green to solo at level 29. I'm in banded gear, 2 scarab rings, 2 brass earrings, Jambiya and Polished Granite Tomahawk. I'm thinking I may try the gnomes in lesser faydark near steamfont zoneline, level 21/22, I should still get full experience without penalty. But would welcome any other suggestions, especially ones that involve getting loot/coin as I level (poisons are expensive).

I feel like there's got to be a guard in HHK for you.

https://wiki.project1999.com/Guard_Blayle maybe?

I'd try working an HHK guard spawn in at some point just for the plat/convenience factor.

I agree, I have been tempted to try. Not sure how high the risk factor is for Blayle with Lancel nearby and Bicker who roams through and a Bard just outside who I am kos to and 2 guards to get through if I needed to zone.

if you're not kos to the bard in HHK near the HP zl, you can tag Bayle and pull him around the wall and kill him while avoiding the other guards.
He's also a real quick respawn too. idr how long? but i wanna say under 6min.


EDIT: just caught the part where you say you're kos to the bard. yeahhh the only other option is to fight him where he is and hope you dont get pathed on.
might be too risky.

I've never done Paineel guards, but maybe there's something less sketch there. You could also try fixing your bard faction somehow.

If you don’t care about the faction and aren’t kos to guards go kill Osargen until mid/high 20’s. I personally think guard hunting sub like 25 is dodgy. So many reds. Wait until you are a bit tougher before declaring war with Carson’s flunkies. You could prob take him to like 30 before greening. Then I’d do Chopin to around 35.

Ended up doing the skeletons in Najena, surprisingly easy. Halfway through 30 now.

This guy makes it through 59 solo on a rogue, we need to have some type of memorial for him in his home city.

Finished up Skeletons in Najena and dinged 31 where they no longer were viable experience. Chanda Miller in Qeynos Hills is now my main target, halfway through 33 now. We'll see how far she can take me before experience gets a penalty.

36 now... millers are no longer viable with the experience penalty at 36. Any suggestions for easy camps?

Highkeep Guards are good until 38/39 and will be quite easy at 36. Try for top floor + the floor right below it at least.

Made level 43, currently soloing level 31 Vhalen Nostrolo in South Karana, making 1-2% each kill. But at 44, he will suffer a big exp penalty. Any static level 32 mobs out there?

I would say check out Barthorn on youtube, but I think his SSF Rogue is lvl 43 too.
He's done SSF Cleric and warrior, maybe check those video's.

This was helpful, thanks! Made level 45. His guide recommended Sarnak Berserkers in Overthere which is exactly what I did. It's a bit slower cause a Sarnak Knight spawns sometimes which I cannot kill reliably, so I would just run them to the guards. Also, only a 40% chance the Berserkers spawn as 32 or 33 which will give full exp, otherwise massive exp penalty. The braid turn in however was 3-4% experience which was nice. Plus I'll get the OT Hammer out of it.

The factionless guide to level 50:


1 - 5 = newb yard
5 - 15 = north ro - giant scarabs, tarantulas etc.
15 - 20 = oasis - crocs
20 - 24 = east karana - crag spiders
24 - 31 = najena - 4 "skeleton" rotation - the ones for ghoulbane quest.
31 - 36 = west commonlands - jahsohn aksot - 6 min timer, mage epic dude without a pet.
36 - 42 = najena - akksstaff - mage epic dude without a pet. 18 min timer though. good AFK spot.
42 - 52 = lake rathetear - rykas - mage epic dude without a pet. 6 min timer.


The good thing about these mage epic npcs is they give no faction hits. They are weak casters without a pet. Once they start casting, you flip around and backstab.

Ding 50! Kinda fun getting a single mob down to 60-50% then bow kiting rest Lol
That’s with spine break also, slow grind at its Best!

Grats! Very impressive to do an SSF Rogue to 50. Hopefully you can power through to 60. Are you a different account for eqravenprince?

I found bloodgill goblins wildly easy with good exp up to 52 in LOIO. Might be a good spot to check out next.

To Late 😂done soloed one to 60 with tunnel bought gear! Wanted a little more of a challenge, followed Barthorn path up until 43 where he stopped, had to search around for low hp guards

The trick to soloing is knowing what fights are dark blue and easy to kill. I too used a ton do spine break on Live. Good work with the grind :).

Ding 51! Now hell levels starts , and the guards aren’t giving much exp sept the quest on evil guards wrist turn ins in WK, lots ppl been doin them lately so don’t get camp much so trying to kill Tiny Miller with spine break rarely get him to 50% then gotta bow kite rest. ��

Weapons atm. 9/31 tooth from cats in ice clad. Snare sword from quest in firona vie
Zerker club from Kurns ,

I’ll post rest gear if get 52 if don’t get burn out Lol, leveling warlock on d2r while kill 1 mob and wait ��
