I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Misty Thicket - and I don't mean for guard farming, I mean for level 5 - 15. I take all my low level characters there to fight on the west side of the wall and am always surprised how few people there are.

I haven't been there in 6+ months so perhaps it is more populated now, but often times I felt like I had the whole area to myself. Occasionally a duo will be camping some goblins or something at most.

It's a great place to solo around level 10 as any class. Plenty of roaming mobs of all types and levels of difficulty, and I often feel more brave to take on tougher mobs under the watch of the wall guards (that is, unless somebody is killing them). When they ARE being farmed though, it's easy to scavenge some Small Round Shields and occasionally a Spear.

The abundance of goblin camps means there is always one open, and you have the opportunity to take on multiple spawns if you manage to build a good little group.

Anyway, maybe it isn't considered offbeat anymore but I prefer it over EC/WC any day.
