Stonebrunt shouldn't be so empty

It can also be frustrating because:
- the drop rates are ridiculously low. Panda claws? Yeah, good luck.
- the named mobs like Giang are often perma-killed by level 50+s scouring the zone for them.
- the other popular quest other than the Wakizashi, is the one for the haste belt. Again, heretics don't always drop the heads you need; they're KOS to everything else in zone, so they die quickly; and you're not guaranteed the haste belt upon turn-in.

So, those who go there for the loot go away disappointed.

If, however, you go for the xp, it's not half-bad. Not enough people realize that yet.
But, then, see point #1 about convenience...

Solid summary. Went there with my druid in low thirtys when it first opened and spent a good amount of time charm killing. Got like 7 of those tiger pelts, only 1 panda claw ever. Probably killed 100 pandas. Said screw it and wanted a change of scenery.

It was a fun zone to charm-kill in, though.
