Subject: Re: Oasis Question


I would wait a bit longer. I just hit 15 and I'm still a little uncomfortable
soloing in Oasis. Orc hunting can be a dangerous buisness when you are by
yourself. Orcs tend to wander a bit, and will help other Orcs they see in a
fight. A fight can go from one orc to three orcs pretty damn fast.

Even the orcs that con blue to me can still beat me in a fight, if they stun
me a few times, and my mend fails during the skirmish. Enter Oasis from N Ro
by the mountain side and you should find some people willing to group. Orcs
are not the only thing to hunt in Oasis, but they are the ones closet to the
N Ro zone edge, which I assume is where you'll be coming from. If you decide
to venture down the waters edge, you can find some good crocs and caimens to
kill, but they will be real tough at your level, and it can be loooong way
back to zone edge from their spawning areas.

Basically, I would wait till I hit 13 (or better yet 14) before Oasis. Even
then, you'll be out classed until you get your double attack skill up at
level 15.

One last tip, if you see "an Orc Warrior", that's good. If you see "a Orc
Warrior" run like hell. That guy is an 18-20th lvl orc capable of dealing out
over 50 pts damage a round, making him a favorite target for upper teen
groupings.

One Last Last Tip: Treat Casters with Respect, Kill them First.
