Errrr, you sure maz? Think I remember those being the old hotspots....The Hole should be among the new ones, and the grey+ scarlet desert come to mind

Well I am unsure just going by the above support link - likely it could be wrong knowing sony. Looking through old patch messages to refute this atm

I could see these being valuable as a supplement to grinding when you spend time LFG and nothing comes up, but nothing beats practical experience playing your class as opposed to an orc/fairy/golgolath/pirate. Especially when you get to the levels where you have access to the planes, it is imperitave you learn to deal with the mobs that now hit like freight trains instead of paladins.

This post originally was to let people like Moto know where to go for better exp outside of MM's. Obviously Monster missions have been found to be very useful with regards exping also.
hrrrm the point.. Are there any other good ways we have found for exping lowbis. I am keen to try AEing some light blue con zones one of these days that should be good AA. The deep for Yittrium. Seb (wuwuwu seb) for nodding blue lillies

The deep seems to suck for PL, Seb on the other hand is damn good.
Go figure.
Umm what do you use the NBL for Maz?
Hitten uses them for poison making........

Verroth was after them for alchemy

NBLs are not a big thing I need atm as I am still working through the level IX potions for skillups and the NBLs are for level X ones which I fail far too often on to make them worthwhile. If Tookie needs em for his rogue, thatis fine. They drop like candy in Seb and I can walk away with several stacks after a couple hours plus I can forage-bot them in DL with my baby druid:)

Heh I was about to say you can have all mine, I have a couple of bags full.
Hitten isn't up to that lvl of combines really eith atm.
