Assuming you get a FS weapon each time (which you don't) you're still looking at 37 guards per hour for that magic 1k.

That's roughly 1 guard every 97 seconds, and assuming you can clear every guard in Felwithe without going oom or needing to heal (which you can't), the long respawn timer will prevent you from hitting 1k an hour, by quite a way as there aren't 37 accessible guards.... more like 16 (at a ballpark guess).

I think the Google ad money you're making off the back of the devs project has gone to your head.
Yea, that fat money i'm making off "their" project (the project that they're making off what was Sony's IP).

I would fill up 4 tink bags and go vendor (thanks firepots) at 210pp per bag, so I guess it was likely 800pp/hour and possibly took a little longer than an hour to clear (although I think the guard timers used to be less than they are now, although I know for sure they were 15 minutes or less last time I played p99).

Paineel guards are another hot spot (start soloing at level 15, can take you to 56 XP wise and it's around 8pp a kill for level 15 to 45 mobs, all on 5 minute timers) that lets you get close to 500pp/hour.

Not trying to poke any badgers or be rude here, but if you have limited time to play, you won't have time to be in a top raid guild. Why then would someone want to pay to rush to 60? Leveling without cheesing mechanics is a big part of the EQ experience. This isn't WoW where you don't begin the game until you are at level cap. Again, this is my ignorance and I'm not passing judgement, just curious.

Seriously, this. Not everyone exploits the game to the same extent, but pretty much everyone does it in some way.
