The words "Paladin" and "soloing" do not belong in the same sentence.

My Paly can still solo at 51. Certain gear helps though. In any case it would be a good idea to make use of how well a Paly can snap agro, Paly + Rogue combo is pretty good xp (toss in a healer if you need it).

Hell levels are harsh, no getting around it. I felt like 40 was the worst. Pretty tough to find a good spot and nothing to look forward to on ding except worrying about the big xp you will lose even with rez if you die in 41.

Fortunately when you get to 51 you can die a lot and barely even notice it if you get rezzed.

at 33 ur not gonna b getting any loot in lguk even grouped

unless its the live side mino patty


You want to use lguk for its undead mobs n your ghoulbane the loot will come but most of the good stuff is farmed by 50+ solo
Sage gonna b your best bet but i wouldnt worry about getting named in guk til your closer to 40.... just stick to zone in mobs n on ocasion the bedroom if ur in a group but b careful of ice bones they wreck u

The real trick to the mid levels is to find a group of people who play when you do.

I got lucky and literally did the same group of people every day from 28-35.. I would log on and instantly get invited, same group, same place.

Anyone who has a solid group they can group with will level faster than others who don't just because you dont have to waste time lfg and dealing with players you dont mesh with.

Ignore the ghoulbane hype too, imo. I don't have solid numbers, but I have a very hard time believing that 1-ish procs per minute from that thing is going to serve you better than just using a real weapon like a baton of faith (or a granite face grinder if you've got some more cash).

When I'm in a group and not the main tank I use SoulFire, when I am the main tank I use Sword of the Morning.

I'm semi-twinked I suppose.

My equipment:

Weapon: Sword of the Morning
Shield: Clay Guardian Shield
Range: Idol of the Thorned
Chest: Breastplate of Ro
Helm: Helm of Ro
Arms: Vambraces of Ro
Gloves: Gauntlets of Ro
Boots: Boots of Ro
Bracers: Bracer of Ro, Heros Bracer
Legs: Greaves of Ro
Face: Mask of Wurms
Neck: Glowing Bone Collar
Cloak: Hooded Black Cloak
Shoulders: Crested Spaulders
Waist: Sash of the Dragonborn
Ears: Diamondine Earrings x2
Fingers: Platinum Fire Wedding Ring x2

I also have SoulFire, Ghoulbane, and Journeyman Boots.

What I'm hoping is that the EXP picks up when I move to LGuk, because of supposed dungeon bonuses.

~40k worth of gear, almost 200 posts, 30 levels and still asking questions like you've never played the game before

Don't even have to say it

I've never played past 30 before. Sorry if that annoys you. Not everyone has made it to the higher content.

Tecmos lvl up a paladin before you chime in about what you believe or not


GB procs at lvl 20 the damage is 182 !!!! it can save your ass countless times if u get lucky n proc 2-3 times in a fight. 182 damage proc is broken when leveling 20-40 and its 1 handed so you can still bash. 2handers damage cap is too low for these levels to match GB, maybe 40 plus it starts to lose its godlyness but dont knock it til you try it

It works better if you have a Shaman with you. Dexterity increases the proc rate.

[oldschooltrader]

obviously things work better when ur buffed....


but at lvl 33 versus an undead GB is leaps n bounds ahead of Granite Face Grinder especially if ur solo n need that damage spike to win close fights
