Howdy all...

I have a 35ish druid (34 and change), and I think I'm going to keep it as my main toon (my original toon and main is a 50 necro from 1999 - sad, I know, but I'm just a casual player). I have really enjoyed the high 20s and low 30s as a druid, so I think I might play this one more.

At any rate, I am looking for some decent gear. Currently, I just have some easy buys from bazaar, totaling about 205 wisdom. Some of that gear will increase as I get closer to the recommended levels, but I don't think they will bump the 255 mark. I did the quest for the Earring of the Solstice, and I have loved that upgrade. I am now looking for some more quests I can do before I get to 50ish that would give me some better gear. Certainly, major gear upgrades occur when the Planes and other higher zones are accessible. But surely there's something out there I can do from 35-50 (like the Earring of the Solstice) that could upgrade my gear. I am thinking about camping the gobby in Dagnor's for the totem and the belt (as recommended in one of the stickies). What else could I try?

Thanks in advance for all the useful ideas!

OH!! And P.S.... If anyone knows of a good EMarr guild I could join for when I "grow up" and can start going on raids, please let me know! I'm looking for a gang of older folks (working stiffs - I'm a lawyer) and other adult types, instead of trying to meet up with the younger crowd who stay up till 4 in the morning.

Don't even try for the Gobby in Dagnors Cauldron. I spent over 100 real life hours camping it years ago and I never saw it once.
Best bet is to leech off guild members or buy plat on ebay.

check out www.aoweq.com (http://www.aoweq.com) for a guild. I think they might be what you are looking for. If interested you can contact me (Daghda) or my guild leader Curehart.

Believe it or not, some of the newbie quests in Crescent Reach are pretty nice :) I got hp/mana augments, a 12/20 staff (don't think it was druid-usable though), armor with regen and mana regen on it, and some other pretty cool stuff. They are pretty fun, although a few quests appear to be broken, surprise, surprise. Be warned that a few of the mobs are quite surprising--such as Duskfall, who was level 33 and hit me for 225. He is snarable, though, as he found out to his peril!

Right now I have 3 hp regen and 5 mana regen at level 35 doing only these quests--I do love the mana regen a lot!

I must report that, as of 12:05 am Thurs morning (midnight Wed. night), I found and killed Bilge Farfathom. He did not have the totem, but he did drop the reed belt, which is useful to me at 35ish (Burning Affliction 2 for long term dmg spells). I'm heading back there tonight to see if I can catch him again and get the totem.

EDIT - It occurs to me that by staying up till midnight last night, I contradicted my first post in this thread regarding my desire to find a guild that doesn't stay up till 4 in the morning... I acknowledge the contradiction and revise my earlier statement to reflect that I would like to find a guild that doesn't stay up till 4 in the morning OFTEN. LOL!

lol!

Have you done this?
