After reading a new article on rpgexpert (link: http://www.rpgexpert.com/4546.html), I decided to give it a try. I set up an instance using my level 68 dru.

Due to the composition of the zone, I only pulled from the rat room. Used some help from friends to decide level range of mobs and found out that all rats were 63-65, perfect for my level.

HON nearby rats for single pull (4 HON's was enough to pull the first on the left side, then 2 HON's for the first on the right after killing the left one. Did not try the 3rd one since within 1 min of killing the 2nd the first popped again). Used level 61 Thorn to pull, run left to the ZI area, before turn to ZI clicky root, then glamour (yes they are animals), then applied dots. Roots hold well after glamour, only broke once in 4 kills.

Some facts about the rats:
Maximum hits was 600ish. I was hit 4 times for 150is, 300is, 400is and 600is. Hit not very fast, double at most, no quads. HP around 30k (since they are 63-65 so it depends on their level). 4 kills for 1% regular exp, which is better than HOH but worse than Vxed on a per-kill exp basis.

Space is kinda tight. Can ride horse (yeah!)

hot key: two lines, first line '/tar a harindi guide', second line '/say ready to leave'. Hit this close to ZI will get you out of the zone instantly. A nice get out of the prison free card.

Drops: 17pp+, 17pp+, 13pp+, 11pp+, 12gold. I was happy with it until the last one. Also dropped some rat furs.

I think the mobs always single pull, they dont assist each other so can kill one while stood next to others. Are they charmable?

According to the guide (see above link): they are not social till level 52. At level 53 the stone guys assist, then at the next level around 58 all mobs social.

Don't know about charm. Level is about 60 so I cannot charm them. Nneed A level 70 to try with the new spell.

I tried with my druid at 56 and could always single-pull.

The problem I had was insane resists and constant root-breaks.

Have you used glamour of tunare? Before using it roots break every minute. After using it breaks 1 out of 4 kills.

Just tried again. Single pull always so there is no need to HOM. I stay far away and target a rat deep inside (maximum distance), use clicky root followed by clicky ensnare, then glamour. I'll have another chance to root if the first one is resisted. If all go well then I mount my drog and apply dots. Three round of six dots (wasp, swarm, winged and drifting plus epic and clicky Drone of dooms) will kill the mob.

I tried FH and exp is mediocre at best, about the same as HOH. The nice part is you can root/rot in the rat room without HON, nothing assists even at 70.

Mobs drop 14 - 19 pp each, so thats ok. You can use a horse, which is a bonus.

All in all a nice, quiet place to solo, but the exp is ok at best, many other places wield better. I tried charming but with level 70 charm mobs broke after 1 min max, so not worth it. Pants Root held well though, so its very relaxed.
