How often are the WK/NK Hill Giants camped on Blue?

[Loadsamoney]

I doubt Rathe Mountains or Everfrost Giants are ever open or not camped round the clock, but I figure since only one/two giants spawn in WK/NK and they roam, they're not camped as often.

Is this the case or are they also camped 24/7? Those are the spots that I'm looking at once my Druid dings 39 since I can track wherever they roam, and will hopefully get him to 49/51 because the high level skeletons in Paineel are camped far more often than they used to be, making it hard to get consistent exp there after 37 or so.

Edit: Sorry, the two that spawn in EK, not NK.

Doubtful that they are ever super camped

I only kill what gives me steady income. Paineel guards are a consistent 8-10pp each. It's how I make my money for gear while I level, especially since I intentionally started this character fresh with no funding.

WK/EK Hill Giants all have placeholders now. You'd easily find them open. When I tried them, I'd get a Hill Giant about every 2-4 spawns. Wasnt worth the effort

What is the placeholder for the giant at 193, -10100 in WK? I got 7 to spawn in a row but didn't see its placeholder as I was semi-AFK. The brown bears, I'm guessing? A lot of them around this spot.

A little rough at 39 with the early root breaks and he has more HP than I thought (Drones + Immolate combined only do about 3% a tick), but it's workable.

Grinding pp to buy upgrades is so poor mindset

Actually it's so I have money to afford parts of the Epic and Thurg armor when I hit the appropriate level. I don't like killing things that give no plat. I'd rather be 46 with a fat wallet then 60 and dumpster diving.

I do a round trip of shopping for new spells and gear every 5 levels on my Druid. Whatever I raise in those 5 levels, I bank half of it, and the other half is my spending budget, so I'm always saving up little by little. With Paineel guards it's roughly 500pp-1kpp per level.

Of course, the other part of it is that Paineel guards are an easy camp that don't aggro, and I can bind and sell right there to boot. So not only is it good money, but it's super convenient.

Eh, as long as it's safe, relatively consistent, and I don't have trouble tracking the giants or the PH, I can probably wing it.

Level 33-37 mobs at Paineel are all on a 27 minute respawn timer, while the giants and their PH are on 6m and 30s, so a giant every 2-4 spawns is roughly the same exp in that scenario, but average three times the plat per kill.

Bro if you have a Druid with all the ports just join DAP and port a bunch. I’ve made over 5k pp in a long session of porting when I had a guy in DAP. You will make so much more money than grinding giants and things like that for plat.

Cool, something to look forward to. I’ve got to get to 49 first though, to offer the full venue of taxi locations.
