Dungeons have the highest ZEM but, I mean it depends. If you have the zone mostly to yourself, you know how to solo in it, and you can consistently be pulling, then definitely.

But, typically speaking, dungeons have a much slower respawn timer, and in many cases I find that killing a mob that gives ~50% more xp or something, but is on a 22 minute spawn timer, in the long run doesn't give as much XP because in those 22 minutes I could've killed like 4 mobs outside for basically 300% more xp you know?

Granted, this was on my SSF warrior, it was simply faster to bind wound up to 50% and fight very low blue / green mobs in beserk range for quad crits and just kinda chainsaw through them. If you're doing something better at soloing you can definitely do more dungeon stuff.

Fair points but if you're not doing unrest/mistmore/COM/KC you usually have the whole place to yourself. Find a place that seems doable, set a respawn timer, see how much you can clear then return to safe spot and get ready for repops. But yeah mob difficulty/density sometimes just isn't worth it without a partner/group. Some outdoor zones will have 85% zem while indoor will go to 150% so it is like you'd get a free kill every 2 mobs but zones like the karanas have reportedly 133% zem so you're not that much behind. If you're doing gnolls in SK you might as well try to solo inside splitpaw since it is 170% though. If splitting them is too mana/hp extensive you might as well stay outside with the singles.

There's just too many variables for a clear cut rule. I personally like efficiency but I also like to discover races/starting zones and areas I've never played before so each toon I try to mix it up and use a different path when possible.

You won’t have to worry about running out of spawns with a SSF paladin. No DW helm for healing, super low dps.

Note: I soloed my play to 60 and bought gear when I could afford it. My initial kit was really rough, I think a PWC, SotM, SCHW’s. It was rough even with a reaver in Sol B and HK with a Reaver then Narandi Lance. I had the old knight table though and the crappy damage bonus.

What’s considered bis for ssf? Like maybe runed blade from kc?

Theoretically it would be https://wiki.project1999.com/Tantor%27s_Tusk . Since it doesn't summon you can kite it forever. You could corpse a bunch of arrows and quest https://wiki.project1999.com/Watchman_Boots a bunch of times to maintain SoW speed without pots. You'd need to corpse the boots too since they are lore.

More realistic options would probably be KC weapons yeah. Either https://wiki.project1999.com/Baton_of_Faith or Runed Blade like you said. Assuming an SSF paladin could kill either of those mobs.

Realistically, you are going to use a Ghoulbane (quested one) a very long time killing rather weak undead mobs until you can solo a:

At some point when 60, you might luck out with a KC upgrade but it’s going to be a rough fight. Burning clickies. I’d get as many levels from Squallslither as one can…
