Subject: Re: Talies is retired....


At 22, I was dragged out to Lake Rathe by a guild bro of mine. We went down
the inlet between the barb village and the gypsies. There is an aviak tower
there with two guards that are about lvl 19 or 20. If you can get back
there, you'll get suh-weeeeeeet experience up to about 24. At that point,
head over to Hermie's hut in SK. Stay there til 28, good money AND exp! (I
learned the fine art of Fear/Chain there heh!) I've found that if I can
find a good spot for blue cons to spawn, I can make MUCH MORE experience
than in any group.

Hope you reconsider,
