Veksar ideas at lvl 59

[dwong721]

Hello, I'm currently a 59 necro. Recently tried out veksar to camp Words of Agony and Expedition for i still need a few spells and need a slight change from agro kiting all the time in PoP. I do the room with the animist (one right after the underwater tunnel). Killed him about 8 times today, did not trigger the named and did not drop anything but a few pp each time, but I will try again. Only thing is is that it takes quite a bit of down time each time. Anyone have any suggestions of how to do it? My current strategy is pull with slow, stick Emissary of Thule pet on it and Shadow bond pet while keeping vexing mordinia up. I tried charming...it worked until it broke amidsts a battle and I got whacked up =) any suggestions?

If you can do this camp then I'd suggest you head to the Church, I did this camp for a long time before I realized that the Church was no harder in fact a bit easier, imo. The Church will drop words of agony and expedition frequently, and there are 3 PH's for 3 named that drop some decent gear.

You'll like this place I lived there for a long time when I finally went.

I'm sorry, is the church in Veksar?

This is the best map of Veksar I have. I trimmed it a bit and compressed it, but it's still 178KB and 1329 by 1213.

It shows most every named/PH location and names of areas (Church, Theatre, etc).

While undead-invised, come out of the water, turn right into the room with the animist, turn left into the pool room, immediate left again and go up the stairs to head out of the building. Standing on the 'balcony' you will see golums. Drop undead invis and cast regular invis. Cross straight over and into the building across the way. Before going down the stairs and into the building, cast undead-invis again. Enter the building and turn right. Go thru the open doorway. There you find a small area where nothing spawns or wanders. To the right is the opening where you find a huge room with single mobs along the wall and a couple on or at the stage area. This is the church. ( See Felicite's map on the previous post ). I don't know that I'd describe the word drops as frequent, but they will drop here. When I was level 59, I grabbed summoned weapons from the bazaar and grabbed a dire charmed (aa skill) pet on the way in. It took some getting use to figuring out how to manuver him around from camp to camp since you can't invis and he aggros like crazy, but once you get him there, you'll be alot happier with him than EoT...IMHO. In fact, I prefer a DC pet in Veks over CoB.

thx for the advice guys, I greatly appreciate it. hehe, i dont' have DC yet, nor many aa's. was planning on starting aa progression at 65 or so...i will give the church a try hehe, see how it works.

i have another question though...can you zone with DC pets now? was wondering what you would DC if you were to dc somethingin the zone...don't know of many low level undeads.

No DC pets do not zone with you.

The sentry and crusaders are close to 47 some are too high for dc others aren't. sometimes you can walk in and find one allready equipped with Mage gear wich is a nice bonus, and a good way to predetermin if it is the right level =).
