Some Area Info Required...

Postby jezer » Tue Dec 18, 2007 9:35 pm

Would appreciate if some helpful person would give me some info about a couple of areas...

Why don't I just find out myself? Well... last night I hit the first mob at ss mansion and it wiped me for 800 in the first round... information like that would be really nice to know before hand...

Castle Black

Can you set a beacon here? (I know I need invite)
The size, type and strength of these mobs...
I think I remember trying to take a wind with a 3x40 monk and failing.

Rogue of Storms
East Wind Spirit
North Wind Spirit
South Wind Spirit
West Wind Spirit
Lord Morrigan
Dragoons
Librarian

SS Mansion

Which mobs do midbies run for xp here?

death builds charecter :)

mansion mobs hit hard but are very thin, easy for mages with mirrors (when i run it with my mage prime i don't usually bother with sanc), and easy for monks, but they are nostab. if you lose con, or whiff your grip, you've got a good chance of dying. all xp areas are like that (well, the good ones).

rogue of storms will generally take 2 mid-sized avatars, although i'm sure there are people who solo it (*cough* necros *cough*).

winds are all not too bad, just thick - very soloable at 3x40 if you have decent gear, or just bring a friend, and you can kill all of them 2man.
about 1.5-2m xps, from what i recall

morrigan is biggish - couple good avatars, or a group (again, it's also solo for some, but i'm assuming you're not asking about what you can do after you get 3k drach in eq).
it's been so long since i killed him i have no clue how much xps he's worth now, sorry

Dragoons are easy stab mobs - splorkable for a thief with decent eq, altho i'd imagine they're a bitch if you try to fight them straight.
1m-ish each, depending on how long they've been up.


as to beacons in castle black, i don't believe that you can beacon there, but really i can't recall ever trying to.

the color-robed lords/ladies in castle black are good, common newbie gold mobs too - nothing spectacular but not bad.
Don't be stupid - we have politicians for that
