"Kedge Keep best xp zone in game"

Jimjam · #1 03-03-2016, 09:00 AM

More than once have I've seen people argue the following: "Kedge Keep best xp zone in game"...

Figured I'd poke my head in.

First room was full of xp green with a couple of non xp and a blue or two. Cleared it okay. Next room down had a bunch of blues, got a crit resist on lull so zoned out.

Came back in after killing a dark blue that was in Dagnor's.

First room was beginning to respawn. Apparently one mob was a named and chased me out of zone.

Decided not to stay as first room was still just a bunch of green, couple of blue (one of which now very dangerous to engage).

All in all had a pretty newb experience (which was fun) but am hoping for tips on how to get more out of the zone. Was playing a 45 ranger (currently fear kiting gorillas in EJ). Do I need to bring friends, head deeper in (and take an escape rope since I don't have sup cammo yet), gain a few more levels or what?

Also curious about this zone but as a 56 necro. Is there any solo spot deep inside which is worth XPing the hell out of? Underwater combat just scares me [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

My experience with KK was with a trio of Monk, Warrior, Cleric. We camped in safe room off the 2nd floor. Then cleared 2nd floor and also pulled sharks from rooms closest to safe room. KK made even the best groups in Lguk or Solb look slow in comparison. I went from level 40-49 faster than I went from 20-40.

I'm not sure if Kedge was my most requested zone rez location, but it was certainly popular for clerics trying to make some cash.

It's not the best exp zone in the game, you're getting trolled. Nuff sed

What is better? Just curious since KK is by far the best I have ever experienced.

The hole is phenomenal, but may want to gain a few levels. As a ranger you can even use anti summon nukes, your snares will come in handy to do the entrance mobs.

Can stay in that zone and go from 49 - 60. I made a post on it

The Hole is nice, close to bind and druid ring. I don't think it would have been good for me to go there from 40-49 like I did in KK

Kedge is good stuff, but hard to solo as a ranger. Take it from me, I've spent a LOT of time down there. Dunno about 'best' but it's one of the best.

I got a monk and a druid buddy who are off playing Borderlands 2 on their eggsboxes at the moment. They're in their late 40s, perhaps when they get bored of Borderlands it will be worth giving Kedge another chance?

Kedge is the worst zone in the game – I’ve said it before and will say it again - if you value your sanity stay away.

Zone is for elitist pricks to try to convince themselves that they are better at the game than everyone else because they can tolerate the poor zone layout and can charm kill. Would be a service to the community if there was a big "DO NOT ENTER" sign at the entrance.
