Well you don't know me but I'm new so you shouldn't know me. I'll give
out a few MM pointers I have learned with my druid :) My secondary is a
bard so I figure I could have some say here every now and then :)
The maid and butler area can easily be soloed at your level, well I'm not
sure my bard isn't nearly as high as you or my druid (at 49th). There's a
ton of tricks on how to get past areas even without an invis or
camo. Also there's a few more tricks on pulling one mob out of a room so
you can easily split the spawn.
Over the last week I have gone back to mistmoore to help out my guild and
decided to get a few things for my bard while i was there. I've gotten a
few drums, lutes and wreaths (still trying for the damn diamodine
earring?). I'm assuming you know where the maid and butler spawn, so I'll
just give you tips on controling those two rooms and the hall between
them.
HOw ever you decide to get into Mistmoore, run throught he Gypsy ("ball
room") room through the double doors on the other side. Continue running
straight until you are past the kitchen. If you are past the door when
you attack the first npc straight ahead nothing will come out of the rooms
to assist it. Pull the mob how ever you wish, but don't pull by walking
over to slap it with a weapon, you'll get the closest mob in the hall way
to your right leading to the maid's room.
Kill it quickly, and i'm sure i don't have to say this but I will, CHAIN
them as they start running. The cooks will try to heal what ever you are
fighting, but it is a low level necro spell so it shouldn't matter.
Next I suggest grabbing the first mob in the hall to your right. Kill the
same as the one before. There should be one more at the end of the hall
way. Pull and kill where you killed the previous two. Now the halls are
clear and you shouldn't get anything but singles from the room. Here's
the tricks to pulling the gargs and the maid/butler/place holders by
themselves.
At 50 we can easily do this by hiding around the corners of the doors. It
doesn't take much to figure out where to stand when you pull. for the
butler room, this is the one straight from the kitchen, not down the hall
to the right.
Stand to the left of the door, open it and target the butler/place holder,
pull, kill. Next do not clear out the gargoyle in there. Go to the
maid's room, stand to the left of the door, open and pull the garg from
that room, kill and go back to butler room. Kill the garg, go back to
maid's room and kill the maid/place holder. If you keep on top of the
spawning You should have the entire area spawning with your down time.
If things are slow on the spanwing just run back down the hall you came
from and kill the gypsies. Just open the door and do not run past
it. target a gypsy and kill a bit back, pull to the maid area if you wish
but DO not fight in the big open area that leads to the dark elf noble
area, you'll get that room and four gargs if you decide to fight there.
At night you should get werewolves to spawn, I love fighting those giant
wet rats :) Getting the maid and butler to drop fangs is just as bad as
pulling teeth (pun intended). They only drop them SOMETIMES in were wolf
form only. So if you kill them durring the day you'll just get a wreath
or cloak (which is really a neck piece). Both are pretty good, the cloak
especially for nafagen raids for the extra +7 MR it gives.
When I go to mistmoore i'm the only person in there, it's really great to
have the entire place to yourself, don't have to worry about getting
others killed if you have to run to the zone (haven't had to yet). Also
there will be plenty of younger bards wanting to get a lute for their
lambent breast plate, I've helped out quite a few when they show up,
always nice to help people when needed. :)
If anybody on Cazic wants to help me in my little mistmoore runs, or just
learn how it's done just give me a tell. The catch is i work graves so I
play from 8am until noon ;)
