Hey i'm starting to play a scavy now...I like it, never know what you are going to spoil next (/cross fingers)
any tips on weapons and armor for D/C grade....
and should i just go flat out AOE to make it to BH or should i take my time and spoil the whole way there?

any tips on weapons and armor for D/C grade....


allllllll the way to mid B grade you want a set of focus duels
armor is debateable but id say heavy solo and light (PL of course) in parties
get enough +'s on pl and thats what you want till b grade


and should i just go flat out AOE to make it to BH or should i take my time and spoil the whole way there?


up to you wanna make casy or just xp?
i lvled my bh up useing a pole and made practically nothing
spoils at 40+ are better but you can pretty much forget about solo
20-40 is a solo scavs paradise
that depends :P do you like gathering mats or exp better? personally id use a spear and level till whenever you get the spoil festival thing, then aoe with that... but then i would never roll a scavvy in the first place, not my kind of character :P
as stated before, use focus duals to solo in C grade (in D grade, use + 107's they sell for same as +0 c duals)

armor is simple, brig for D grade, C grade is FP armor (no shield).

to run some numbers by you, +4 dual 107's on devianne in giran go 4m at least. brig set standard 2.5m accross the board.

FP can run you 11m, while spirit*raid +4 duals nearly the same.

to make this money, youll need to spoil your way to 40.
****...so i want duel swords...hmmm...should i toss my T-Bar aside and get duels now for the Dgrade?
beause i solo almost all the time...and only party in HC when its a small aoe group (2 poles and 2 healers) or maxium xp/drops.

With the T-bar i wear a shield too..and "Shield defence succeed" is awsome...will this be a big factor if i switch to duels?

change to duals and get out of HC NOW if you want to farm the big bucks.

you cant wear a shield and dual wield at the same time.

QFT

Weapon side 107's will do just fine at D grade. Of course the more ++ the better :)
A low d blunt for the ocassional stun maybe?

When I leveled my WS I get her up to 40 asap doing pole in NoS / HC. After that it's easy to solo in HC with top C equipment. Get the 43 skills and delevel to 40. And dont forget to manor too :)

and where do I "farm" these big bucks?
what i have been doing out of hc is...the delu lizards south of Dion...seems to get a varity of stuff from them, like mith ore, Bhemp(both of which i need :)
if there is a better spot at lvl 32 with full prophet buffs...please let me know...i'm dirt poor now, i just got a few Dgrade drops to make some SS to sell so i can get HP pots and if i don't sell them at least i won't have to buy ss for the next week :).
with duels...is the kill time faster?

egads...

well i hate to pop your bubble man, but you wont be making money when youre spending it on SS. to make the absolute most adena at that level from now until 40 and afford your C helm (FP) you will need to hunt using the following pattern;

outside of the catas there arent many mobs with good exp rates. believe it or not this is a good thing. when youre making money you want a slow exp grind so that you can grind out the most money and spoils. at 32 make your way out to the southern part of floran or the Ant nest or Death Pass area. i also call floran death pass because of all the reds there on my server. but i digress...

in the ant nest you get mostly single mats and much of it is thread on the ants, nowadays threads can go for 300a each in the right places (aden town with so many ppl looking to do the quest for bridal gowns). lots of antidotes also, so u wont need to buy many to begin with. they also drop pretty frequently. if youre headed into the ant nest and want to save yourself some money, lay OFF the SS. i mean it, you would be surprised how much money you save.

in deathpass its really camped with people looking for the fettered soul mob which has been known to drop SoR's and SoR blades very often. well, spoiling roadside scavengers will yield the same result with less exp. and its a pretty rare drop.

you can also grind out in the fields of silence/whispers; this will be your final pre40 grind, and it will yield the mosnt moeny and adena. mobs drop nearly 2k per kill in adenas alone, let alone the dam good spoils. for this area it is acceptable to use SS if you havent a healer who is patient.

now to grind out 40 in just those 3 places can be long hard and boooooooring. thats why +4 or better 107's will make the road easy, and in most cases, fast! now as a dwarf you will miss now and again and again and again, but dont be discouraged. with the money you make from spoils in just those 3 areas, you can start the "buy'n'sell" feature of this game which now is what most farmers to all day long. not grind out money but buy low, sell high. (i.e. buy from giran sell in dion LOL) no but really there are many good deals that go down that can make you rich very fast. one of them as a dwarf will make you a lot better in C grade, that is, the retail of EWD.

not the ones from drops, mind you, but set up a buy shop when you have the cash, for blank scrolls. take everything you buy (overnight you can buy upwards of 1000 blank scrolls if youre lucky at 900a each) you can either resell them again at 1000a each or my personal favourite, trade them at merchant of mammon for ewd and sell ewd (on my server) 400k.

whos richer now?
