I run a RAM drive to help with lag skips but I still would get killed occasionally from lag spikes in Kunark zones like overthere as opposed to low population Velious zones. I also don't like being a jerk and monopolizing mobs from other people. I always make an offer for others to join the exp when I swarm but it's worse exp than being solo. I've swarmed so far in Iceclad on the dervishes around ToFS and it has been fastest and easiest I have ever done with the least amount of zone disruption monopolizing cause no one ever seems to camp them or even be in the zone for that matter. I'm assuming it's going to be like that for most of outdoor velious except cobalt scar.
I was also looking at hps of drolvargs vs common kite trash in Velious and kunark mobs seem to have more hps so they take longer to kill.
Ultimately I just want to try something different, even if I have to level the slow way in groups. Thanks for the interest darkreap and advice Baler and Foxplay.

Not what you asked for, but I would just do FV drovlargs until 45. If the wiki says they have more HP than velious mobs I would wager the wiki is just wrong as it often is, I never parsed it to compare but drovlarg's don't have that many hp for their level.

If you stay in the back of FV and pull to the Swamp of No Hope ZL closest to the giant camp the only people you will ever be competing against are other swarming bards. FV usually has very few people in it in relation to your lag issue, most are just passing through. Any non-bard hunting drovlargs will be on the cliffs and you wont be disrupting them. There can be more than 90 drovlargs up at any given time.

50-60 you can charm kite WL geo's and WL suits though.

EW is doable but definitely way slower than FV and you have to make sure not to stumble into snow griffin's.
