I did that till 20, stayed in Oasis on my druid. Then Messed in UR, went to MM, found the groups obnoxious and so went back to soloing.

Think I was 21 when I went to OT and charm killed stuff around the little water pond. Cactus die really easily too, btw.

Then at lvl 23-24 I went to kill giants at Warslik Woods. Got one forest loop, and found that easy XP till 29.

From 29 to 34, I hit HHK till 34 with groups, not bad peoples in there.

From 34-37 or 38 I quadded Snow Cougars in Ice Clad Ocean.

And, the best spot I ever found from 38 to 44 was Tundra Yetis in DL right at the tunnel and outside of it, all through the snowy areas. They are easily quadded and great XP.

With these spots you will hit 44 pretty fast imo.

As for druids sucking?

Imo they are very self-sufficient and powerful outdoors until 53-54. Then, the spots you can quad get very limited, and XP just becomes extremely hard to get.

If you LFG as a druid at 53-54, most rather have a cleric or a shaman healing over a druid so it gets to be a drag trying to level druids after 53-54.

I suggest you make friends. They will invite you to groups and not mind that you don't bring as much to the table in a group as does the other healing classes.

Druids eventually at 60 become decent, but they will always be weak in dungeons as their spells are mostly geared for outdoors. They also have no slows like a shaman, and they lack the hugely efficient heal spells like a cleric so again, they are a bit weaker in a group setting than the other healers.

Also, they suck at dungeon crawling. With no slows, trying to solo stuff is really rough on druids. You aint taking any powerful named mobs solo indoors, not like a shaman can.

The druid is a fun class if you enjoy helping people, and like to be very self sufficient, never having to ask for ports to travel etc. it's a great class for buffing and helping lowbies out.

Anyway, that's my perspective on it. I think druid id my favorite class, but it's weaknesses can be very frustrating at times. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
