Summer Update 2015

I made some quick hunts at some of the new spawns.

Asura Palace

You should easily be able to break 1kk/h here if you're alone, perhaps even 1.5kk/h. However, this place is very dangerous. Every thing has ranged attacks and the damage come from many different elements, including death. They also burn a lot of mana. It might not be safe to bot here even on level 400.

Hero Fortress

This place looks really sweet for exping. There were like five people here so you might be able to hit 1kk/h if you're alone but I'm not sure. The monsters here don't hit very hard. I don't think I ever went below half hp despite tanking with ml gear. Min level for botting a mage is probably somewhere between 200 and 250 depending on whether you intend to tank or not. The loot is looking really crappy though, although they drop pieces of crown set and stuff like that and I didn't get any rares but I'm still doubtful whether you can profit here or not.

Edit: Profit is actually pretty decent when you hunt for a while. And I am indeed getting 1kk/h when I'm alone (but that doesn't happen often).

Edron Vampire Crypt

This looks to be suited for characters around 150 or so. I'd guess the exp is around 300k/h with some profits. Howerer, the spawn is small and won't handle sharing well. There was a 180 EK there when I visited so I didn't bother staying for 15min. At least I looted a pair of BoH

Edit: A Windbotter has already made a EK script here and it looks like I severly underestimated the exp. You can get over 500k/h here, not at level 150 though.

Water Elemental Dungeon
No screenshot here. If you're around level 50-100 this one will probably give you roughly the same stats as the old cave. However, it is a bit larger and has Massive Water Elementals on the second floor which allows it to scale better for higher levels, possibly allowing you to hunt here longer. I got 350k/h, obviously limited by respawn rate.

Edit: I brought my level 80 here and I'm getting around 250k/h inside the cave, however, refilling takes forever. Also, the best thing about this cave is that you can actually lure monsters since the pathways aren't 1sqm wide like in the other Water Elemental cave.
