Is one of them a ranger, shaman, druid or magician? Hunt the zone in Kedge.
Best xp zone multiplier in the game, lancers stay blue till 40th level. My
ranger character went from 35 through 42 within a few weeks of light game
play there. My bard is just waiting for the chance to use it to level up but
that's a ways off. Single pull the lancers and kill them in the entryway,
fish don't run so no snare/chains are needed. Don't charm in that entryway,
the fish warps to the 2nd level as it enters guard mode and generally comes
back with 3-4 friends, believe it, I've seen it. If your group is 37 average
you should be able to take the piercer and impalier with some effort but I
know a 30ish group of 4 friends that just took out an impaler so a group
around 37 should do fine. If you are lucky the Fierce Impaler will spawn,
it's your only chance at loot on the upper level, common drop Gloomwater
Harpoon (DMG: 9 Atk Delay: 31 +4 STR, +25 HP bards can use), rare is Darksea
Harpoon (DMG: 10 Atk Delay: 28 +5 WIS, +5 STR, +20 MANA +5 DR shaman only).
The Darksea is worth on the order of 8-10kpp, the gloomwater is nice as
well.

Make sure you mem Jig of vigor, as well as Tarew's Aquatic Ayre. The stamina
effect is very important since you won't get anything back underwater. Don't
depend on Tarew's for Enduring Breath, it's range isn't great, but if things
get out of synch or breath runs out during battle it starts up quick and
will save lives.
