Thanks ill check that out. It's a hassle essentially be required to stay close to cab for spells. I joined a group in EK doing crag spiders but after a couple lvls I was 20, group was disbanding and I needed to get back to Cab.

Needless to say the lack of porters and run distance from DL is a large incentive to stay in kunark, at least until lvling slows down more.

Never leave unless you carry your important spells with you/plus research? - Or have friends who can pick them up. Porters are leveling up! But yes, PITA.

casters don't need any gear, and you can easily earn money and buy it with a small amount of effort.

Thanks for all the brilliant insight , ill go re-roll... Oh wait I'm already playing a necro for exactly that reason and asking for potential spots near Cab to earn some money but please continue to state the obvious.

Money really won't do much in terms of getting you gear unless you go the JC route and buy some 55hp rings. All the people giving away items right now are doing so because no one buys them so you really so have to go and get them yourself. That or you'll get them free I guess.

At 24 or so (provided you get your pet) is good for ww giant fort. Lots of good vendor trash there with the possibility of a forest loop. You can do Sogblog(sp?) in swamp of no hope around that level too. I've never done him but wiki has him at 25.

Most of Kunark is on roughly the same loot table in that there are zone wide drops + cheap vendor trash. There are no major cash camps like in the old world (sea furies, hill giants etc...). Head out there and see what you can find. Be on the lookout for rare pages for other classes.

Thanks for the suggestions. I've never really done the low end of kunark so it's a new experience for me.

It's a very slow and steady income flow unless you're going for items.

I would suggest doing cash camps to get you a few spell levels worth so you can go xp elsewhere. I did mammoths in ever frost from 26-32 and made a it 2k. Have been able to buy all my spells since with most item upgrades given to newbs or friends.

You could probably do misty thicket guards for serious cash after. Establish yourself on the mainland by maybe doing ground drops and transferring the money to a convenient level 1. Get enough for spellls and then do items to gear yourself out in. As mentioned above, you really don't need much as a caster.
