Made L30 this weekend, have a few questions:

1) any hints on the SolRo quests beyond what's on Allakhazam's
(http://everquest.allakhazam.com/quests/Q_Temple_Solusek.htm)?

For the Harvester, I need a shadowed knife, which is from a goblin in OOT
rather than a shadowed man. Where in OOT can I find the goblin
headmaster? Is he soloable at 30?

Any thoughts on shadow men? Do all the items drop randomly off all the
shadow men, or are there better places than others to find the shadowed
scythe and eye/hand/mask of shadow. Are there any camps that are
soloable or takable by a pair/trio, or will I need a full group?

2) where's good hunting (and good groups) at L30? Sarnaks, goblins, and
forest giants in Warsliks and Lake of Ill Omen have been great from 20-29,
and it was always easy to find or start a decent group. Now those spots
are starting to green out.

I came back to the old world at 30 to try some of my old haunts, but both
cazic-thule and unrest have been very disappointing. The unrest basement
wasn't bad except for the powerlevellers (2 different L50+ druids
levelling L20-L25 people) pulling past us and causing havoc. Cazic would
be nice, except the three groups I found all had at least one complete
idiot in them, and we spent more time zoning/dieing than fighting.

Any advice appreciated. I don't like soloing very much (too much
downtime, not enough interaction, and no chance to use our best abilities
like shadow compact and screaming terror), but I'll consider it since
downtime in a bad group is worse than soloing.
