I have found a spot to hunt in, that I think is great. I post this on the lvl 30 range because that is where I am now, but you can take this spot from 20 to 60 or so. You must have GoD and OoW. Take your local Magus to Nedaria's Landing. On the southernmost pier is (can't rem his name right now). Hail him, say 'Taeolsain', 'temple', and 'interested in visiting'. Go to the bear caves, in the first landing is a female NPC and rock. If you got the Expedition from the dock guy click on the rock by her, if not talk to her then return to dock guy(that is what I was told). Click on the rock by her and you will be taken to The Forgotten Halls.
This is an instanced zone. There are 2 rooms full of Bats or Rats. Now while you won't get too much in loot, at lvl 30 I was getting 2 or 3 pp a kill, and 2 or 3% XP a kill. Of course as you level mobs level with you, XP stays the same but PP slows gets more.

Pretty sure you don't need OoW for this; the zone came out before OoW was released. Also it's possible you don't need GoD for this, since I'm pretty sure that Nedaria's Landing is a zone that everyone can go to. Worth trying at least for those who don't have those expansions.
Around level 50 or 55 these mobs become social and start hitting really hard, so it's not a good place to solo at that point, from what I hear.
Game on,
Thanks for that update. Some of my info had come from another player, so I wasn't sure about the social part.

OoW is not needed but GoD is.
This post brings back some memories. When I hunted the bears in my 30's a friendly druid invited me into her group. Had wolf form cast on me for the first time. Zoned into an instanced expedition for the first time. Killed a magus for the first and so far only time. Wolf form immediately went from dubious to kill buff on sight for me. :lol:
you dont need god to go to nedarias
To go to Nedaria's you won't need GoD..... however, in order to enter the instanced zone (Forgotten Halls) you definitely need GoD. I tried a while back (maybe may/june of '04) and it didn't allow me to access the zone. Doubt they changed it. /shrug

is anything social to these bats or rats? Hehe I made the mistake of pulling a stone guy and aggroed the whole damn place it seemed - including the dude i need to hail to leave - so I was pretty much dead.
Is there anything KOS in this instanced zone in case I need touse invis pots?
Thx

OK - how about answering my question please ;p
Yes. Stick to rats and bats. Everything else assists.
You can do this are at any level, on up to 70, but you'll find some levels harder than others due to the mob's level increasing.

My son took his 67 rogue in last night to check it out. He attacked a rat and all the Stone dudes aggroed. This going to happen at lvl 35 to me?
He must have been in range of the golems or pulled it our or something.
I used to stand in the middle of the first room of rats, hit F8, and kill the mob. Over, and over. Nothing every added on me in the room itself.
So I'd assuem the golems and taelosians assist rats and bats as well as each other.

kk thx for reply]
KOS? Heck no! Everything is freaking passive...even the RATS are passive and everything is NON-SOCIAL! read that again... NON SOCIAL! don't worry about it just don't attack the guards and u should be just fine!
-Meloku Voidbringer
The golems and Taelosians are indeed social.
Yes nothing is KoS, but both those mobs will assist any other mob type.
Just go in a room with bats or rats only and kill those. You'll be fine. :P
From what I understand, there is a certain level that more mobs assist others, around 55 or so. Below that it's very nice and easy to solo there, above that it's much tougher (not counting the mob's level increases).
Game on,
Quick question, has anyone gone here and encountered the zone to be dark at one point then come back and it is bright again? I have found it to be as such. When it is bright my pet barley hits the mobs and in the dark the mobs get killed easily.
