I enjoy grinding off humanoids. I have no idea why. I choose it over beasts. So when I was level 56 I wasn't sure where to go. The level 56 undead in WPL that freeze you are just not worth the effort so I went looking and I didn't have to go far. I hit up EPL and vered a bit off the road to the undercroft. There are Mossflayer zombies there and the only thing that they do other than melee hand-to-hand is an instant spell that reduces stamina & spirit by 28. I can live with that. There is a perfect amount of mobs for me to maintain 38k/hour exp. There is only one mob there that is close enough to another to link and you can completely skip him if you want.
Ok now to what the title is about. I was grinding there from 56-58 and the drops were incredible. Not only was I getting 3 stacks of runecloth/hour but I was picking up about 7 gold per hour. That isn’t even the 1/2 of it. The first time I was out there I was grinding for about three hours and came away with about 25 gold worth of greens. That is the least that I have made there yet. This weekend I was grinding there for a while. I came away with about 100 gold worth of greens and the following somewhat high dollar items:
1. (Blue) Elder Wizards Mantle: 25 gold - 40gold on AH
2. (Green) Plans: Thorium Shield Spike: 90 gold -125 gold on AH
3. (Purple) Glowing Brightwood Staff: 650 gold - 800gold on AH
Now I know I probably got pretty lucky this weekend but I got a great exp/hour and even without the three somewhat high dollar items I still did phenomenal.
Give it a try if you are not quite ready to farm Tyr's Hand.
