Some questions about WHM 65+

[Dux]

Got a few Qs about the high end game for WHM that if people could shed some light on would be great.

1) I am currently killing things in Boyahda Tree which I believe you can do until about level 67. However after that I have no idea where to go to get EXP and what to kill. I hope its not in Cape Terrigan killing Manticores as that seems like a risky way to go. Can anybody point me in the right direction for where to EXP from 67 to 70?

2) Is Nobles Tunic worth the 11M gil people are asking for it on Siren? I can't imagine anything ever being so good that it could possibly justify being 11M gil. Vermillions Cloak is a heft 2.3M gil which is at least in the realms of being acheivable with a few weeks of mad, pointless, brain-numbing, life-force draining, will-sapping demoralising boring boring boring boring boring HNM camping (/rant off).

3) Apart from the aforementioned Cloaks of Absurdity is there any other great EQ out there that people can recommend?

Cheers guys.

You can technically stay in Boyahda Tree till lvl70, although from 68-71 Dragon's Aery, which connects to Boyahda Tree is a better alternative. You will be faced with spiders (Sound aggro) and flies here.

67-69 you can also level in Den of Rancor, connected to Yhoator Jungle. Opponents here are lizards.

70-73 Kuftal tunnel is a good alternative, past the moving rock. Tigers&Cockatrice are opponents till 72, Ladons (wyvern) for 72-73.

71-75 King Ranperre's Tomb, past the ???. Opponents here are bones.

71-73 Ro'Maeve, past the moon gate. Opponents here weapons and golems.

70+ Tu'lia, good EXP, opponents golems.


Noble's Tunic is basically the best piece of equipment you'll get for WHM body, save for maybe AF2, but unless you're in a good HNM LS that gets Shining Cloths from God fights, it's not really worth buying.

Vermillion cloak is a good alternative, however it occupies the head slot. Should not be worth mentioning for taru, though.

You can lvl on darters in the lower part of boyahda till about 71 or so. Then you can go to dragons aery and fight spiders and darters.

Some other good armor is dalmatica, but that might be harder for you to get than nobles tunic.

Of the above-mentioned enemies, I think it should be noted that the easiest and least stressful of them are the Tormentors in the Den of Rancor. Easy zone nearby, limited status effect attacks, low defense enemy. Only problem here is spawn rate - basically only one party at a time can level successfully there. More than that and it becomes very difficult to get chain 4 or 5 since the repop rate is so slow. These can be XP'd on until level 70 if you have the area to yourself for chains.

Post 70, everything is annoying to fight, for various reasons.

I think that sums the game up even better
