Subject: Re: [eqbards] Level 22 woes (or why Unrest STILL sucks) LONG


Find a warrior about your level and hit MM yes its train happy at times but
the Warr should be able to keep single pulls off ya and you and he can get
good xp due to the little down time.. Also had better luck using weaponsthan
my AoE songs there. Cazic was also good to me with similar strategy except I
needed bugger groups. HK is good xp but hard t get party.. weapons there as
well.. you dont wanna accidemntally AoE a guard.
