so where do you go after 29?

Go back to OT. Pull the south and west sides of the zone. Walk out at 46 (can probably push the exp to 48ish). Then I've heard some going to burning wood. Personally, once I hit planar level I hung up my AE kiting hat and have focused on grouping or soloing outdoor nameds for loot.

One night, I saw a 46 bard doing Spirocs in TD (he had the place to himself). He'd basically pull every single spiroc in the treehouse.

I logged on the following morning and he was 50. I assume he was doing fairly well. Spirocs are OK exp and quaddable until 53 for wizards/druids, so I assume a bard could take them just as far.

Think that was me hehe =) yeah spiroc for 44+ is what I did, at 43 my cactus/birds in OT went LB for some of them, so i pushed to 44, then left. Spiroc were great til like 52 then it went LB for a lot of them, random kinda anywhere from 1/4 to 3/4 will be LB at 52+ it seems.

IMO good way to go would be around 18 hit EK then move to OT by Warsliks till like 24, at 24 go to SK and slaughter aviak till like 27/28 then head to centaur (slightly higher mobs) even though it sill slow down stick it out at least till 30 otherwise you can't land dots on kites in OT very easily and they stretch on till eventually kill you lol. From 30-44 hit OT cactus/birds, then move to spiroc till 52. Can do 1-52 in probably 2 weeks easy.

Jerus was cool and respectful about it, I have had bards (even guildies [You must be logged in to view images.

Be respectful of your fellow players and all should be good.

i just started doing the kiting at lvl 30 in OT. I was pulling my stuff to the low level side of the gorge to avoid pathers. I had an issue with my turns being jittery. It caused me to die 2 out of 4 large kites. I still made out in exp, but my palms were sweaty lol.

I didn't notice this at all when doing the dried up lake near WW, is this maybe due to the chamber under the earth there? Do you think tanking my clip distance would clean this up?
