Then just increase the time a bit :P.

Strategy will maintain the same. Its just without Manastone/Robe and pretty decent knowledge on PLing you will be less efficient than someone with those.

Awesome! I was worried that PL'ing a pure caster was not really possible, but to do so in less than 24 hours? That is amazing. So at a leisurely pace with average PL skills, I should definitely be able to PL the Enchanter to level 35 in less than a few days? That is awesome. Thanks a bunch guys for the advice.

This community is really not as bad as some make it out to be. Have a great day everyone. Much love from Meanbunny.

PS: If the Druid doing the PL'ing is not 60, but would be the minimum level to PL the Enchanter to level 35 without having serious problems?

I don't know if this works on P99 but I distinctly remember druids PL'ing pbaoe capable classes in Dalnir on live (during kunark/velious) because every mob (on the first lvl at least) would flee at low hp regardless of having friends nearby. So the druid would run around casting ensnare on 15-20 mobs then let their DS wear em down till they turned around to flee (but wouldn't because they were snared).

Then the enchanter/necro/cleric would cast a PBAOE or two and collect all the xp.

PBAE PLing as a druid is useless on this server.

We lack the efficiency of healing and the durability of being overgeared as well as decent zones in which there are mass numbers of blue-yellow con mobs that facilitate this PLing style. Since the PL'd toon needs to be able to land his AE on the mobs.

You're better off pulling and tanking 3-4 deep red cons so that the PL'd toon is getting 10-12% per kill up through 25, and beyond you can still manage getting 6-8% a kill up to about 35 and 3-4% a kill up til mid 40s.

With complete endgame Velious gear, maybe I'd reconsider PBAE PLing. But the majority of the zones where this is best done, are the same zones that are packed by level appropriate groups.

PoP when gear from raids was breaking away to awesomeness, was when DS PLing took off. You could pull and clear all of LGuk before respawns as a druid with that method during PoP for example. Certainly won't be doing that with Velious gear and spells.

To your question, a low to mid 50s druid could PL to 35. But it is slow goings at that level. I'd put 53-54 as the min to do it in a reasonable amount of time. Anything under that wouldn't really be PLing. And you'd be better off letting the chanter charm solo while you toss a buff and heal him on breaks / snare his mobs.

Pretty much what he says. Monk, Bard, even a Mage are better higher up the PLing levels goes.
