Hi hi [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] still a new player to the server here, and after a few character switches, I've decided to main my little gnome cleric. I read somewhere about making good money around level 12-14 on the wisp island between Qeynos and Erudin. Would a non-twinked cleric be able to survive these and kill at a decent enough rate? I want to make some money to gear myself up to start the grind to being a good cleric! [You must be logged in to view images.

I advised someone to hunt wisps in another thread. But as a new DE cleric on P99, I spent those levels in WC groups camped at dervs and orcs, or in Befallen. I didn't make much money, but if I wanted to farm wisp island then I could easily do so after quickly passing through those levels. Instead, I killed zombies and mummies in my solo/downtime and found someone who wanted to give me a few hundred plat for the stacks of skins. But ultimately, my enchanter alt became the main for a little while, and I used him to make money and obtain better gear for the cleric.

I don't recommend trying to farm for plat as a low level cleric. You don't even need that much money to get some halfway decent lowbie gear. A lowbie group that needs a healer isn't going to pass on you, or boot you because you're still wearing leather. IMO, the best thing you can do right now is to find reliable people to level up with, who will try their best to avoid getting you killed, and who are generous with sharing loot. Find a guild or build and maintain a /friends list of people to play with so that you're not constantly LFG or soloing. Your true friends in EQ will take care of you and ensure that your gear is getting upgraded along with theirs.
