hi, well just hit 72 on my BD and my buffer is SE (72 too) was wondering where are good spots to level up, since martyrdom entrance dont works so well as used to before and deep inside is full of bots ><
i was exping in ToI 5 with buffs (bought some santa buffs and i log in and out a pp 52 for berserker spirit 2 and haste) but getting there and after tuesday wont be able to solo it anymore.
also used to do WoA before around 68 i was on the bandersnatch and bandersnatch slaves just didnt liked it how far apart were monsters for others (idk if now will work better than before since the slaves used to be yellow now all is green except the slaves)
went to blazing swamp a bit too but cant compare exp of normal monsters with the monsters x2 (with buffer dont really need herbs at all)
well any suggestion would be nice, i was even thinking to take my SE on main pc and box BD and go to FOD and kill with 2-3 nukes the vampires
I have faiced same problem month ago.
Believe me, you have 2 worth options:
1. woa: kill bandersnatch and slave bandersnatch. Even in 74+ lvl they give very good exp per kill. If you feel boring, try to find spot with "Grizlies" slaves and one "Eye with wolves". They will be whit and will give very good exp. Don't try to hunt angels yet, it takes long time to kill them and exp is not so good as expected. Some bot parties can be found.
2. loa: last room before carines. Or any room where most mobs are green to you and of course undeads. Use a power of holly dance/holly weapon. Because you have boxed SE, mp should be not problem for you. Most time bot free areas.
I have find out that exping in catas after 62lvl is noth worth per time.
Ups mistake, there a third option :)
3. IoP: duo is great there. Ok exp is not so great, but fire stones as drop is very good. Ok, this place is hard botted, but you can find small corner.
It used to be called LoA years ago, now its just AL (Antharas' Lair).
On topic: I had the same problem with my SK (was boxing BD so dps was close to BD's). You can either stay in WoA (yes bandersnatches are borring, but they drop tons of bones and common weapons so money++, but dont kill slaves, they give the same exp like normal, but have strong p.def), or try FotD (really good exp and you shouldnt die with SE on your back), or catas (back of Disciples has physical and holy weak mobs, but you would have to dance inspiration for acc, or wear majestic).
Yes, I still using old acronymo Lair of Antharas (LoA) :)
About Forest of the death, hmm, it depends. You know, I exping solo with ch buffs+GSAP, so I need to go to ch (@ Aden) buff and return.
In compare these routes
1. ch(buff)->run to gk->tp goddard->tp woa entrance->run to exp spot->return when buffs counts
2. ch(buff)->run to gk->tp oren->tp rune->tp FotD->run to exp spot->return when buffs counts
I personally liked BS on my BD in the low/mid 70ies. Those bat groups give very very good exp considering how fast they die and the mobs are generally close enough together to make the killing fast.
Woa is fine, IF you can find a spot. But everytime I tried to go there it was completely overrun, no clue how it is atm.
I always preffered herb spots for soloing even with SE oop simply so I could keep 4-5 dances up more conviniently (without recharging, I'm lazy) but that's personal prefference I guess.
thanks, well in WoA only spot i find worth is the one with banderstnatch and antelope slaves but then if i want a bit more exp per min (not waiting for repops a bit slower) have to go to the bandersnatch slaves too, unless anyone could tell me a good spot in WoA (i used to exp in the open that leads to the buffalo slaves and some eyes that use to run and attack from far away)
only problem i got with catas is that everything stuns now (and in entrances are lilim and nephilim knights) mainly because of my DyE setup (CON-8 STR+4 DEX+4) even a Lv.20 dwarf/orc mage stun will land on me XD, i was thinking to try stakato's nest entrance.
FoD i thought mainly because my SE could kill the vampires in 2-3 nukes but its a pain to get there XD
when my bd was around ur lvl i spend tons of time in blazing mainly because i had a clanhall in aden and it was just so easy to buff up and just port over. the xp isnt all that bad especially if you kill the bats as soon as you see them.
you might consider xping there some even if you still dont think the xp is worth it because u get shards from the shaman mobs for your subclass and noble quest if you dont plan on buying them.
if you dont know, u need 100 shards to subclass and like 500 for noble i think.

WoA - try to find Grendel slaves and eyes of rulers there - exp is very good per mob.
About FoD - try dance of light + soul bow with bd -> you will crit one hit these vampires.
Ding Ding Ding!
Xp until 74 in HS then move to either Varka or Ketra.. whatever you choose. ;)
Don't forget to do Palakia at 74.. to charge up vit and get 28MIL XP.
He said, that his con is so low, even I hate Hot springs because most mobs stuns...ok, this is not death risky, but 1/3 of killing time just stand stunned .... ? NO.
Pailaka is doable on that lvl - did myself - but get oop buffer. Got ~30% when completed.

Nice, I got stunned way too often on my destro with 40 con (and resist shock 4 buffed). But now, with reists also reducing debuff's duration, it might be not that bad with majestic set. Anyway, there are no good quests and drops at HS, so lvling there wont be profitable.

HEY!! Guys, don't mixup things. In Lineage 2 you have choose first what you want:
1. fast leveling - low profit
2. high profit - slow leveling
In other words, if you looking to places where is adena worth places to exp (which is IMHO stupid for non spoiler classes), don't expect to level fast there.
I did HS easily with -4 CON.
Hm, whenever I went to HS on my BD with Tallum heavy, I got stunned so much it was not fun anymore (-4 con tattoo). I tried Majestic heavy, too, but I still got stunned a lot. It is ok in a duo, but if you are solo there, get several mobs on you and are stuck in perma-stun hell, things can get a bit hairy.
Whenever I could not get a party, I went to WoA bandersnatches (I always just used the shrine noble port, then you just need to run around one corner and you are in the middle of a pile of bandersnatches). I guess FotD would be good xp, too - but I hate that area, too many mobs which stand and nuke from somewhere where you have a hard time seeing them, sometimes they even nuke from the other side of a hill.
If the area is not "overbotted", Varka Silenos is also a good spot (the easier mobs across the road from the port spot). They are all melee weak now.
First room in IT is also worth trying out. The mobs there are non-aggro, non-social and sacred weak (hw+dance of light).
I guess Megatron "I did HS easily with -4 CON." means that he did quest for 3d prof change.
Yes, me did it solo with ch buffs easily too, but the main idea is that almost every mob stuns. What is not good when you solo or duo with only damage dealer.
