New Barb Shaman, great to be back!
 

I have a level 5 Barbarian Shaman and I'm getting back in to the groove. I've done the fungus quests a few times in Everfrost for spells, any other must do quests or tips/posts I should read? Thanks and maybe McDoogin will see you in game and thank you as well!

Welcome back Barbie!

The Greyweasel guide http://wiki.project1999.com/Greyweasel%27s_Shaman_Guide is worth a read.

Also worth a look is : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHY...yFQ5nWX4YlHujg

I found his adult, rather meandering approach to the returning player invaluable.

Hi there McDoogs! Welcome and glad to here you are having fun! My knowledge of the frostlands is limited and so I've little to offer in terms of advice said from: stay warm! ^^

I think Everfrost has to be one of the worse starting zones in the game. :eek:

But sad to say as a new person you sort of HAVE to stay there till level 5 or 6 to be able to run thought Everfrost and BB to even get sort of out of the place. Then you need to be there so you can buy spells in Halas and Everfrost from Stern.

No place else you are welcome as a Barb to buy spells from. Have to make a troll alt to go get it from the Hand in the Swamp only real way to do it. But it is a great class and a Barb is a good toon for one.

Welcome back and GL. :D

Nah, EF is a great starting zone - start near Halas ramp when you're young, get skellies and polar bear cubs for cracked staffs and pb skins. Save the skins and sell them to people making Leatherfoot Raider Skullcaps for 10pp ea, they're the hardest piece to get or turn them into Cindl for pathwork armour if no one is buying. Once you get to 5 start on the Gnolls at the BB entrance - you can spend a lot of time in BB collecting gnoll teeth to hand in to the barb war GM in Halas for xp and coin.

See the guide linked below, a lot of it is shaman centric since thats my main. Have fun, you just chose the best race and class combo in game IMHO (screw the min/maxers)

Regards,

Agreed ... once you learn to avoid the Vengefuls (but until you do it will be a terrible starting zone).

Mg has some great tips, but one though: I think the Qeynos turn-in of the fangs gives more XP than the Halas one.

And hand gnoll fangs in at qeynos warrior guild not everfrost, for max xp. can turn in 4 at a time unstacked.

Everfrost one of best newb areas imo, can easily get to 5-6+ without moving zones. Can be a tad tough at lvl 1 but lvl 2+ is faster there than any other newb zones because of better lvl2+ mobs

They have Nerfed the Gnoll Fangs in BB. Not much worth the effort anymore.

Still worthwhile on red if you're local.
