Default SK/Sham Duo Leveling Recommendations

Hey guys and girls. I just wanted to put this out to the community and see what people thought. Some of you have seen my friend Mushtu and I out leveling or on my stream. This is his first experience with EverQuest and I've been showing him around some of the not so common leveling zones of Norrath. We've done some grouping but mostly just duo with a pickup here and there. I've hit 38 and he is right behind me at 36/37. We've been killing giants in FM for a bit but we are ready to move on. I was hoping to get some suggestions as to where to go next to keep it interesting for him. We like to keep the exp moving but it's not necessarily about max exp leveling.

We've done places like Befallen, Najena, EK spiders, RM giant skellies, SolA, High Keep guards/goblins, and a few others. The only Kunark we've done thus far has been giants in FM. My SK is very well geared and I have helped gear his Shaman with the basics. The two other characters I've leveled 50+ here I did in the cookie-cutter group exp fashion and I'm running out of solid ideas for duo spots that we can manage. The wiki hunting guide is helpful but I wanted to get some player feedback.

Places I've considered but have not verified is duo'able by us are DL (outside Karnors), Rathe giants, Kaesora, Ice Giants in Perma, or Droga. He has liked the dungeons so far so that's why I was looking at Kaesora and Droga but I haven't played either zone here on P99 myself yet. Anyway, any input would be appreciated. I know we have some solo/duo superstars around these parts. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

TL;DR -- 38 SK and 37 Shammy looking for recommended duo spots!

Outdoor zones for fear kiting!

38-49 - spectres in Feerott?
49-53 - Everfrost ice giants / CoM arena (space to fear kite)

We were thinking about heading to OT to grab a couple levels if we weren't quite ready for the next good spot. Didn't think about spectres because I find them dead a lot lol. CoM is on our list but figured that would be later.

dalnir should be around your level, droga i've been in once or twice but should be a fun zone. Kaesora is awesome, never really leveled there but i played in it quite a bit, with a group once also very very fun. I plan on taking my enchanter there to solely level there when im in the level range for it.

have done nurga at this level with this duo

was good xp, always plenty of mobs with no competition, well spaced for single or at most double pulls (root the melee), and spiders could keep you going up till 41 or so

dont be scared of the casters, use endure magic & resist cold, and time your bashes for critical interrupts, you'll do fine

btw, this is a horrible suggestion

as an sk, without a mana regen buff, you want to save all your mana for holding aggro, occasional buff/debuff, and snare only if needed

you'll be medding a lot of time trying to fear kite with this duo, where you really want to be chain pulling while the shaman meds

This might be fun. Would be a little bit of excitement for me as well I think as I haven't ever leveled there.

So far we've been able to maintain this type of leveling. With my fungi it has been me pretty much non-stop pulling for 38 levels while he meds/canni's, roots, dots, heals, etc...

Kaesora spiders or skeletons around Xalgoz are great exp. The zone has an outstanding ZEM and you wont run into all the casters you will find in Nurga/Droga.

I love Nurga and Droga but they can be tough, the spiders in Nurga are a good spot to check out as well if you are having troubles with goblins.

http://wiki.project1999.com/Spook_the_Dead (10 mana)
http://wiki.project1999.com/Engulfing_Darkness (60 mana)

If the shaman dots up each spec, you'll both need to med eventually... minimum impact on the SK's mana pool in the 40s.

Down to opinion I guess [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
