Hello all,
Im 0302 and will be 0402 tonight. What should I do next?
Im having good fun leveling using baz nitches as they give around 3500-3900 xp apeice and they are fairly plentiful. Think im ready to move on to a bigger challenge but, don't want to bite off more than I can chew, where would you go?
Thanks!

Go with the defense line next to get as much Center of Being as you can... with it, you can tank bigger and better creatures to get even more XP.

correct me if i'm wrong but i thought there was an xp cap? i've never gotten over 4,200 xp from a single creature and i havn't heard of anyone getting more than that. So i think attacking a creature with 150k ham just for 300+ xp would not be worth it?

No but he can move up from Biznatches, no one said anything about 150k creatures that'd just be ignorant to rely on something like that to level your character.
Although I have gotten 4500 xp from killing Dark Troopers. And remember once you've killed something for a while you start to outlevel it and thus begin to get less XP.
COB is pretty much the best thing about Swordsman now, you'll save your armor, your mind and the worry if you use it, the other trees will melt away very quickly. I've found that Pickets are great as far as their size, and the number of them that come from one lair.

Wild merek lairs on endor give about 150k xp a lair. Just spam an area attack (I've been using SpinAttack2) on the lair and make sure the stacked poison doesn't kill you.

Yes. There is an XP cap. Cannot tell you what it is, but even if you solo a Krayt dragon, you are not going to see more than about 5k XP. The most I have ever seen was about 5200 off of a Singing Mountain Clan Dragoon when grouped with one other persons.

I went up the offense line after doing the tech line. But unless you hunt buffed and with armor (what I do), then I'ld go with the defensive line next.
