Evil Shaman Solo Guide 1-56+

[DrKvothe]

Everfrost til 4 killing polar bear cubs for HQ bear skins. Buy large sewing kits just outside of Halas for storage. Get enough to fill your bank and your inventory.
Qeynos Hills killing rabid wolves and turning in the pelts in Qeynos once you've filled up your packs until 8 or 9.
Blackburrow kill gnolls for gnoll fangs and turn them in every time you fill a stack until this no longer lets you ding in a single turnin. As these guys turn green, you'll kill them faster with zero downtime and get more and more drops. I stayed here until 24 lol. Probably best to bail around 19 when you get affliction. Someone else should comment on what else to do from 19-24.
24-26: Solo the two aviaks in the nests above the arena zoneline in lake rathe. They spawn every 6 minutes, so you should be able to root/rot them and be back to full mana/hp before they respawn. They drop bronze weapons, gems, etc. And there are vendors in zone. If you haven't saved enough for 2x 5/55 rings, you'll get the cash here.
27-29: I duo'd sisters in OOT. This probably isn't optimal, since the loot/exp is half as good duo and I couldn't manage to adequately split them by myself. Ruins elf/druid/etc. factions. Should probably have just gone straight to HHK
29-34 Group in HHK goblins. Yes, not solo, but you didnt get any dots at 29, so you're using your lvl 19 disease dot and 24 poison dot while solo, which is super low dps. Goblins drop FS weapons, bricks of ore which vendor or sell to players well, and goblin ears which sell for 25-30pp apiece to the right buyer.
34-37 You've got your pet and should be able to handle the ancient croc camp for several levels. You'll get either sleeves (150pp) or pants (1500pp) every coupled hours. You might not see pants drop. Severely overcamped, so you might want to do something else, but I just wasted a Sunday (like all day) poopsocking it and made like 6k in loot.
37-46 I low hp kited with bards in OT and DL *shame* Should have headed to CoM at 44 at the latest.
46-50 CoM. Get your epic stuff done up through black dire so that you can do book turnins in EJ. Group any of the camps and ask politely in ooc for groups to announce unneeded page drops. You can solo stables no problem at 49 without missing a spawn.

Use inner fire to heal up until it is no longer practical to do so. Great ratio.

If you're a troll or iksar that worships cazic I recommend killing guards in Eruding somewhere for a couple hours sometime within the 35-38 range (so you can get exp off them) then go do the Initiate symbol of cazic quest. You can then fear kite spectres and spectral keepers in TT for pretty good exp until 53. Also a good item in dungeons v. undead caster mobs if you're creative.

Just curious what kind of gear you were working with to kite the mammoth calves at level 9. I'm completely untwinked (just found out about p99 recently) and I'm not sure how to do go about doing this. I only have 200ish mana and that's gone so quick. If Im lucky and dont get a resist that I can the calf down to 50-60%.

It does seem that I could eventually kill it with natural mana regen and refreshing the DoT, but SoW eventually runs out and then its gg. Is this more for geared characters?

EDIT: Well, I managed to kill one after more than half hour of kiting. I got a technique down which times the server meditate ticks, but it has been unreliable if the server/my connection is lagging. It'll either work perfectly, or it'll show me getting the mana from the tick and then when I stand back up it takes it away. At least I know its doable.

I did 9 through 24 (yeah, 24) turning in gnoll fangs from blackburrow on my barb shm. The light blue and green cons die so fast. Doing the same on my gnome cleric atm. Got 5% per fang at lvl 13 (like 11% at 9), when most of the gnolls are green or LB.

Dot kiting sucks with the reduced tick dmg.

There's so many people who are way over leveled doing what you did that its hard to even get a mob. Guess I can try coming back on off hours or something. But that place is ridiculous.

I was in tattered when I did it so no, no gearing required. I did do it however before running damage from DOTS was nerfed so the effect of this nerf may in fact render the whole mammoth kiting thing moot now. One of these days I'll level a shammy to 9 just to try it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

How was running DMG nerfed?

Bump for an older post.

Also, for evil shamans, in the level 30ish range you can go kill halfling guards in Misty Thicket. They drop about 11pp per kill (They drop a SPEAR every kill which is 10pp to a vendor) I say bind yourself in HHK at the neutral vendor, and when your bags are full just gate, sell then run back!

Just need to watch out for that lil halfling druid lady who likes to give everyone nearby SoW + Thorns.

I'm approaching level 30 and am looking into doing this. Anyone have more information on where exactly the neutral vendor is in HHK?

Thanks!
