Currently in the area around kaesora.

Mobs of various level are mixed together, all kos, and you're forced to wander between light blue, yellow and red roamers to tag the one blue mob and pull it to a safe spot.

I guess now at lvl 10 it may be time to move to kurn, but 6-10 has been a pain in the ass.

Lake of Ill Omen was my favorite for leveling an Ikky. The mob distribution is more layered in terms of levels as you move on from the Cab entrance to the lake area.

FOB I found as you level to slowly move towards kurns in the pit. Not sure if you are killing Furbies or not but I think the skellies and wolf hunters slowly scale up as you move that direction.

There is definitely a gap between 6-9 that sucks for everyone except Nec in FOB. Most things are either light blue / low dark blue or yellow/red.

Grats on powering through pal

This quest needs to be fixed or trivial loot code implemented. Using fangs to skip eight-ten levels is downright silly and against the spirit of the game (imo).

Wow this thread blew up, wasn't really expecting that lol.

To try to respond to everybody in a general manner - FYI, I wasn't sending people tells bitching at them to leave the camp. I was literally sending tells along the lines of "hey mate! any chance you might be able to move into BB and hunt there? I'm just level 6 so these entryway gnolls are the best xp". Hardly sounding rude or pushy at all.

I understand Gnoll Fangs are great xp, but I just feel it's a bit ridiculous for people to not be courteous/cognizant of the leveling pecking order in a noobie grinding zone. I literally never had this problem on any server I played on back in the day. I remember back in Classic, if I ran up to a camp that was my level and a high-level toon was camping it for drops they simply concede the camp to me because they knew I could actually get XP from it, you know, like it was designed.

All that being said, I did take some of the suggestions here and I rolled an Iksar Necromancer. It's much better not having to depend on the courtesy of others to level on this server (for me). I also have experimented with making a character on Red, and while I thought it would be therapeutic to attack the people I think are rude, I've found that Red has a pretty big twink culture that I don't think I can compete with.

Also, I learned something today about how to properly petition GMs, so thanks for that.

oh, and PPS - I've bumped into Bahkrel around Freeport a few times since then on some of my alts. I always make a point to stop and /rude him a few times so he knows how I feel before going on my merry way [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
