I've been enjoying LDC's in Sol B recently, although it can be quite dangerous in a dungeon without half your toolkit available

Soloing where other people does means hoping to get a camp, or having someone try to nudge you out after a quick afk.

I rarely see anyone at my solo camps, let alone melees. There are a lot of places to go if you visit zones and try to find obscure blues off the beaten path.

So at 59 the best XP I was getting as a Ranger was in WW. Ally with dragons is crucial for this. Nothing in the zone will agro you other than ice burrowers and velium hounds (they are rare and have a massive agro range. Also totally managable).
Track Brontotheriums and Mastodons. Snare, Fear, melee and get that xp. Loot is non-existent other than velium mastodon fur.

Prior to this I had mentioned Chardok. It's smooth from 57-59 (Even 60).The entrance/exit ramp is a mix of Sarnaks and Chokdai dawgs. Root and bow the Sarnaks. Fear kite the dawgs. PP drops about .5g to 4pp a kill. Chance at random drops from the zone, gems, and other vendor junk.

Was this better than someone like Grik etc? I've been doing this recently, but the mammoths and rhinos have a lot of HP, kills take a while.

Yeah, I think it’s way better. My longest kill was 220 seconds. Average 132seconds. So just over 2 min a kill. 4 mobs gets you 1% at 59.

Chardok my average was worse since it’s not 100% animals. But still doable. For a semi afk experience, chardok is better. You have 2 pathers on the entrance ramp and 7 static mobs.

Nyzil Bloodforge in BB is blue at 59, has classic HP (~5k) and a 6 minute respawn timer. But kiss that dwarf faction goodbye.

The insights shared here, especially regarding the effectiveness of various zones like WW and Chardok, are invaluable for anyone looking to maximize their XP gains during these levels. The emphasis on leveraging Ranger-specific abilities like snare, fear, and harmony to handle mobs effectively in these zones is particularly enlightening.

I appreciate the detailed breakdowns of mob management and XP rates in different areas. It's clear that choosing the right spot, understanding mob behavior, and optimizing strategy can make a significant difference in solo leveling efficiency. The shared experiences also highlight the importance of adaptability and the willingness to explore less conventional zones to avoid competition and maximize gains.

This is a good example of AI. Almost had me fooled.
Good work nobody!
