Grinding areas for new players

[Cherek]

We're looking into making some of our current grinding / money areas for greenhorne-wanderer players more easily accessible for them. First question is however which areas do we have that are good for them?

- Orc Fortress in Sparkle.
- Kobolds in Town of Last in Terel.
- Small Orc Camp outside Frogmorton i Bree.

Then... hmm... what else do we have?

[Windemere]

- Kretans/Argo guards in Calia
- The Orc Towers in Sparkle off the road (different from fortress)
- Mini goblins near Corner Stone in Terel (not many, but small)
- Hobbits in Bree
- Gibberers near Faerie
- Kender in Kendermore (if you're a jerk)
- Undeads underneath Flotsam (can't remember exactly how big they are, but remember them being small)

Probably others, just not sure...haven't been a greenhorne-wanderer in a long time

I think there is some new area in Avenir in the Utterdark that Lucius had coded.
I don't know how small it is .. or how to get into it though.
The door is locked.

You just made me laugh. So you know of a newbie area but you dont know anything about it?:)

[Kitriana]

Yeah... :/
I don't even know how to get into it.
I've tried with Kit but failed to find the key .. I thought maybe it is only accessible to smaller players.
I know there are hobgoblins in it though .. at least that what I was told.
But I kinda doubt that someone new would be able to find it easily.

The area in question is for medium sized. I've been there

Wanderer can easily go through there, as far as I remember, so it is for smaller players.
Also the magic map says "newbie area".
No key neeed just unlock the door.
Un/fortunately they are not neutral, but rather good, so killing more then a couple will quickly make you very evil.

Evil is good.

For newbie grinding I suggest krougs, cadu castle, hobbits, kobolds, and gont tower. It should get them up pretty quickly.

Gont tower?

Not likely.

They hit like a truck even at Rising Hero.

[Cherek]

I am talking mainly people fresh out of tutorial lands, and wanderer at most. Most will probably be greenhorne/beginner size.

Gont is way out of the question, krougs as well. Unless you mean water krougs? They're perhaps not as dangerous as the main kroug area? I am really no kroug expert..

Hobbits and Kenders are pretty tough too, I'd have to confirm it but I doubt even a wanderer can handle them? Anyone tried them recently with a tiny char and can confirm how tough they are?

Anything in Utterdark I think simply is too complicated and confusing as a "my first grinding place".

Undeads in Flotsam might work, but it's also not exactly easy to get to.

Cadu Castle... very small area, and.. strange...

Gibberers definitely make the list I think. I had forgotten about those.

We sure have to struggle to think of half decent areas though... Any wannabe wizards who would like to throw together a few more areas near Sparkle?:)
