Need Some Shaman Advice In Everfrost

[Gumbo]

Well, I could branch out but not too sure where I want to head too. I guess I'm looking for some spot where I can gain levels and make some money at the same time.

Go to qeynos, kill the two rabid wolves and the rabid bear. Turn in pelts get good exp and 2-3 pot per pelt. The three are on a 6 min timer. Can make 75-100 plt a hour. Look up rabid wolf quest. Don't dick with BB or everfrost

Level 12 you can also do willowisps. Hand in lightstones/greater lightstones for reasonable xp at North Karana.

I'm level 10 at the moment. Went to do willows in NK... Can kill them but it's a battle. Wolves and bears are much tougher. Switched and went to Everfrost and killed Orc troopers/spiders/polars but the money sucks bad and the ice boned skele owned me with his DD. Bah. I guess I'm going to stay in Everfrost until 11... Any suggestions from 11-12? I'm guessing wolves/bears in Qeynos are going to be camped to hell hahaha

My method is: Tainted Breath, run, Sicken, run, Frost Bite, run, Tainted Breath, run, Frost Bite, melee, Sicken (if needed)

Your method is hurting you (edit - maybe not hurting, but costing a lot more mana per kill than necessary). Mobs take reduced damage from dots while moving (unless feared). You don't have root yet, so you need to melee those dotted mobs. Toss a slow on them if you're getting beat up too badly, but shamans melee well enough at that level.

Have you tried Blackburrow? Bandits in west Karana at 11 are also doable, if you stay away from the casters. They look like half elves

Blackburrow is awful. I did the guards outside and the two spawns in the tunnel from 6-8. Turned in 55 fangs and got to 10. Inside blackburrow is crazy, though. No one respects "camps" and trains come from all over the place. And no one seems to group in there. Count me out of BB haha!

I'll check out bandits. And that's a good point as far as melee. I don't have Drowsy memmed (which I will now, but because I was kiting I just didn't have use for it), but I knew about the dot thing and for some reason I didn't follow my knowledge base. I'm going to try: Tainted breath, sicken, melee. If things start getting ugly revert to the kite method.

Thanks!

Keep in mind that Drowsy only slows like 11%, so you'll still be taking 89% of the mob's damage. IMHO it's not even worth the mana to cast; it seems more efficient to just melee and heal up after.
