    Man you have no sense of humor tonight. Many other posters already answered the OP's question, I just wanted to play a little.

    (Besides it is true, if you've played Metal Gear you already know the drill. )

      I understood what he meant, so no worries, the little bit of humor was kind of a relief. To be honest, I spend all my time reading various job guides, crafting guides, and to give myself hope, HNM and BCNM guides. I never thought about researching mobs, or more specifically they're type of aggro. STOOPID MEH!

      I appreciate ALL the help, I'll be much wiser next time I attempt going home. And all the extra info on other mobs and areas is much appreciated as well.

        Re: I just wanna go home!!!

        heres something to help you, since most replys explain how to avoid getting agroe. heres some other advice most goblins are easy to outrun. run a straight path as possible (goblins zigzag some). 2nd run past objects and turn just slightly to pass just behind them and hopefully hang up your pursuer.

        now heres a suggestion to making your time looking for party better. just stay near dunes zone while in konstacht and solo the bees and saplings that are easy prey. get exp and not be bored while waiting. also you could go back to gustaburg zones and kill mobs until another couple of levels as well. really better to hit dunes at level 14 anyways. my opinion anyways.

On a more serious, non-hate filled not, is there a better way of getting back to Bastok, or am I stuck trying to get past the omnipotent goblin of long range nooblar stomping?
          I have almost allways soloed. At your level I was bitchslaping lizzys in the highlands. If you haven't learned the rules of combat by now you never will and will be a danger to all partys and players.

            You could of started your own thread to brag. I asked for help, and until your post, that's exactly what every reply contained. Go you. And what exactly are you refering to as far as "rules of combat"? Can the warrior move two spaces forward on his first turn, one space afterward? I dont get it.

                Well to be honest, not *ALL* the posts in the thread were helpful.

                    Jance will get the hang of it soon enough, I wish I started looking for info as soon as I started playing.

                    It took me 30 lvls or so to start really looking into things.

                      I wasn't trying to bragg Just giving my opinion. Apologies to all who thought so . I feel that if you haven't learnd how take care of yourself by that level then you need to go back to the basics. training quests for the early levels would be nice. As for soloing it has been a lot harder to gain levels and things this way but I just happen to like doing things on my own. agen apologies to all.

                          You were bragging. No where in the entire thread did anyone mention soloing lizzies. The main reason for the post was finding a way back to Bastok. I dont recall saying I was having problems dropping mobs in the highlands.

                          Im level 13... errrm, 12 now. Doesnt get much more basic than:

                          Provoke(for practice on it's range)
                          Attack
                          WS if enough tp
                          Watch character and mob exchange hits
                          Provoke(for practice with macros to hold hate)
                          Mob dies

                          Other than ctrl+c, there's really nothing to fighting at this level. So again, I ask, what "rules" did you mean in your previous post? And how do I "go back" to the basics if that's already where Im at?

                            I suppose the "rules" might be referring to aggro behaviour. I would say that's one of the most important things that people should learn early on. Know what to do and not do for sight, sound and magic aggro.

                            Another "basic" thing you should keep in mind is just run away. If you get aggro, don't ever stop for anything, just keep running (unless you are running into another mob). Your chances of surviving are much better that way.

                            Thanks Yyg!

                              I find it actually incredibly easy to travel by walking. Avoiding aggroe is so easy. From playing games where if you just come within a range the mob will aggro it is really nice.

                                I've solo'd war to 36 and pal to 27 and solo is always possible with the right attitude.
                                I always carry a couple regen drinks for those unexpected aggro runs. You gain HP as you run, the better drinks(pamama au lait) cost a bit but at 3 HP a tick you can run quite a way and it might get you to the zone. I just ran a level 1 mule from Sandy to Juneo without sneak, the secret is patience and knowing the territory. Running at night is not advised.
                                I like to keep to the side of the zone, run halfway up the hills, this way you only have possible aggro from one side to watch for.
