snoblins on Aesry. 3 tiers of locksmithing, skinning, out of town goodness.

i was under the impression that i needed about 120s in combats to start the first tier. are my box skills high enough? i know they slackin a bit

120s is about right. If you work silvers for defenses/offenses/skinning/stealths etc you'll have your 120 and then some. Keep working the boxes in sprites and you can go from sprites to snoblins on boxes. I think I went to snoblins with 100 ranks in boxes.

Unfortunately you're in a kind of crap place. There's a 20-40 rank point where you're going to have nothing 'great' to hunt, really. Just buckle down with something skinnable, work those ranks, and try to move to swain or snoblins when you can. There are things out there skinnable at those ranks, and box dropping, but not both as far as I know. Like others have said, snoblins or togballs are going to be your next skinnable, box-dropping, option, and they're around 120s.

It's a downside of the current system.

alright, sounds good. i appreciate the info. guess i will just bounce around a bit until i can go to snobs. this also gives me a chance to bring up some of my lower weapons in sprites so i can work everything in one spot from here on out.

In a few ranks you might be able to handle the ogres and bears west of Crossing. Ogres drop boxes, bears are skinnable.

Yes. I started them with about 95 ranks in defenses. I only had 70s in weapons, but higher Melee Mastery (110-115. Barb who had 7 weapons all at level at the time). I needed my Barb buffs at first, but it wasn't bad at all.

Since when do Togballs drop boxes? I've taken three characters through there(the most recent being like eight months ago) and have only ever gotten gems, coins and assorted treasure using the generic loot command.
