Thanks Braglor, but what I mean is do I get faction with the singing clan before I go there (to the waypointyou mentioned)so I don't get attacked by the singing clan?

I heard you can't ever get enough faction with nightsisters for them to not attack. So, can you get enough faction with the singing clan to not get attacked?

Do the missions you speak of give positive singing clan faction?

huurton's are good for everything.

As a BH with a GSP I was getting great xp off of them. As an aspiring TKA and possibley pikeman I'll be doing them as soon as I hit novice.

Only do the huurtons. Pikets run everywhere and bols are a bit tougher to kill. You can try the voritor's but they poison.

Huurtons have no armor and are pretty much vunerable to many damage types (electricity, acid etc)

Can you still get stalker missoins? I've been running huntress missions, which are fine, but stalkers do give a bit more xp. I can't seem to find any stalker missions though.

The other problem with those hurton missions is that each lair seems to produce only 6 mobs, 2 of which are very likely to be babies. That's 4 mobs or maybe 12K xp per lair.

I've noticed that pickets spawn more like 9 mobs per lair, and it's a lot less likely that you'll geta baby. That's closer to27K per lair. Just something to think about.

Or, Baz Nitches give 4500, 9 per lair. They're a bit tougher than hurrtons though

ya think?

Yup...was doing them last night. They're in the 9900 credit range.

hmm...so i read this post and i was on dant so i thought ..ok i'll give it a try.

i hunt pickets and hurtons with friends but never alone.

i buffed myself and got there, on of them had a red circle...not even yellow. it was really hard. i had 1 hurton huntress and3 hurtons on me... i dont know why there were so many of them out.

i'm 0/0/3/2. i should be able to take them right? i dont know for some reason i was missing a lot. maybe i just need to get a better long vibro axe, or lance?

i think my vibro lance is 3.8, 35%, 90-250 maybe

and the long vibro is: 4.3, 52%, 100-370 maybe

i will be going up speed as my next level so hope that helps.

any suggestions on what attacks i should do? i usually do: sweep1, then hit 2s.

i really need to use warcry..when should i use that? after sweep or before?

help? )

Nobe your friendly doc.

if anyone is on Corbantis send me a tell. i always buff fellow pikemen/women for no charge.

I have been hunting huurtons of any kind. I always use a tank though - there isn't always a doc buffing at the imp outpost.

Personally, I use my atst as a tank. I have it fire a round, then I tell it to stay and use spinattack1 on the group that mobs my atst. The only problemI have had is that my atst like to start shootingevery few seconds, and I just have to tell it to "stay" again.

Well... I'm no where near the uberness of getting 2-3 blocks a night... but I have figured out how to get 300k of xp in a couple hours of hunting.

5 of us got huurton missions of various types all in the same direction. I wear 70% Advanced Ubeese Armor... So I tank obviously... No doc buffs though... The other guys keep me healed up as we go. The downtime was low and I cleared 300k pretty quickly and easily. Everyone else with me seemed to be getting decent xp too.

I can solo the Huurtons of course... but I like interacting with other people while I play. Not to mention it's nice to have the backup.
