EFP / Nektulos for cracked staves ~1p ea merchant
Spiderling silks sell. Dunno how much for, but something.
Bone chips ~10p/stack in EC
HQ Bear Pelts ~30p ea in EC

Plus you're already basically in EC already. Then you can continue leveling in relative proximity.

How many of ya are playing? Class ideas?

There's 3 of us. Debating on having an evil crew or not . I've heard it's easier to make money being evil (killing stuff like treants ). I know I'm gonna go enchanter.

For pure profit, Qeynos is the best. It's also the best for exp and low level loot.

Amazing exp and 2 plat per turn in:

Decent Exp, but the reward can be vendored for around 10 plat:

These things all drop near Qeynos that can be gotten at lower levels:

The Lightstones should be saved for this quest as it's good exp, only 2 zones away and the reward vendors for 9.5pp:

It's quite unlikely but possible to get:

For practical drops, Catacombs has:

You could also throw in a Dark Elf Shadow Knight for a solid core of a group amongst yourselves. Troll's got better starting stats and still relatively close if you wanted to run him over.

^This would be my recommendation if none of you are partial to any particular class.

If your two buddies have something they want to or prefer to play, I strongly encourage they go with that route.

A Wizard or Druid could ultimately join Dial A Port to make some decent cash (it's like p99's Uber service), but if you're going for viable self-contained group, this above combo would work pretty well.
