New Druid Advice from the experts

[bcbrown]

I took a quick look through the Warrens. I wouldn't recommend it for anyone new to druid charming. It'd be a fun challenge for someone who's done before, but the lack of easy access to a zoneline and the cramped space make it significantly harder than learning in EK.

If I wanted to farm plat while leveling on a druid, I'd go bandits, OOT gargoyles, zip through the 30s with CT gators, spend a level or two in NK/EK charming griffons into hill giants, then go to CC geonids.

I disagree. Considering you didn't know there were bats in the Warrens until a few days ago, your assesment is probably surface level. Lets dig a little deeper.

Remember that the Warrens zoneline is next to a city (Paineel), and Druids get Gate at level 5. You can ask a higher level for a bind near the Warrens entrance and use Gate to escape bad situations. Warrens also has wider areas than typical dungeons, especially when compared to dungeons like Guk.

The benefit of the Warrens > Paineel route plat-wise is you get access to killing guards at a low level. Guards drop their loot very consistently, which is why they are good plat farming spots. Gargoyle eyes don't drop as frequently as guard weapons generally speaking. Quite a few guard spots have a 100% drop rate for their weapons. Warrens mobs drop bronze weapons as well.


The other benefits of the Warrens > paineel route are Heretic faction and a few loot drops if you do want to scratch that itch. Heretic faction is good for if you want to do the Hole in later levels. You don't need to farm the faction at a higher level.

There are a few ok Druid pieces in the Warrens. The drop rate on most of the noob items was pretty good from what I remember. I wouldn't recommend camping these items, but you can check on the named spots from time to time and kill them. You'll get track at 20 too.

Theoretically you could try for
https://wiki.project1999.com/Scepter_of_the_Forlorn after you have leveled up on guards. It sells for 3k. I wouldn't recommend camping the scepter as the drop rate is pretty bad, but if you see him up on track you could try it out.

Yeah, talking a zone you just explored clearly means you don't know what you're talking about. It'd be like posting in a Druid advice thread and arguing about Druid charming, when you've never, you know, charmed as a Druid [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I've done quite a bit of killing and item camping in the Warrens. I've done quite a bit of charming on my Enchanter.

Lormain has lost all of the debates in this thread so throughly he is backed into the corner. Fallacies and lies are all he can muster.

Please quit while you are behind and stop spamming the thread.

You still haven't addressed this post:

Loramin still refuses to acknowledge he attacked me first in this thread. He blames me... for his attack on me.

Remember when Loramin said he admits when he is wrong, and then immediately refuses to admit he was wrong in the next post?

Yes, there are multiple bad posters in this thread who refuse to take responsibility for their actions, including yourself Loramin.

Blaming me for your bad behavior is silly. Everybody can read the thread. Your behavior makes you look childish and delusional.
