I want to say it's still a viable camp. While I was leveling, several others around my level said that it's usually camped whenever they try. I just felt like the risk vs reward for me wasn't worth the trek/waiting. I also did one time run into a SK at 54 who said that HHK bards felt like easier/better exp than bear pits too.

Congrats on 60! Ty for sharing your path. I don't ever consider ZEMs when I'm exping solo, so bear pits sounds like a great time to me tbh. High level mobs susceptible to fear? Yes please. Just don't die.

Hello. Due to work/RL I've had to solo grind from 50 - 60 on an untwinked Ranger. This Ranger is my main as well.

wiki Magelo profile: https://wiki.project1999.com/Magelo_...s_Swiftstrider

50-52: HHK Kill the guards, Mistress Ana, Captain Bosec and Captain Boshinko. If they're hitting too hard, just root-joust or root-and-shoot.

52-54/55: HHK Bards - Star Dreamspinner and Storm Dragonchaser. Avoid nobles and Isabella if you want to save a headache with faction (annoying to deal with during pulls too).

54/55 - 57: HHK Dyrna Nlith (basement jail)

57 - 60: Swamp of No Hope - Grik the Exile

57 - 60 alternate: LFAY Brownie Guards *because I wasn't twinked I needed to bow kite with a ton of FR and some MR gear. I also bought a Tolan's bracer for this.

57 - 60 alternate: HHK Dulcina Blackhand *18 min respawn with a PH.

If anyone needs more detailed strategies for any camp, such as how to split the bards (Harmony doesn't work as they are linked), let me know.

Do the hand and belt haste stack ?

They do not. Can only have 1 worn haste (highest will take effect).

See https://wiki.project1999.com/Haste_Guide for more details.
