In the green circles are some great XP camps. Fast respawn, and don't aggro unless pulled, the drops are money drops and COTF rares so make sure to bring big bags!

I can't imagine why it would be high traffic... the only reason I can see for going there is doing COTF era quests or running to Tower of Rot Portal.. I didn't see anyone else out here for a few weeks (other than the other boxes in the area)

each server is a might different. Mine has 15+ folks in it pretty much only at low points, seen 50+ folks waiting to do some more tasks.
Admitedly though, groups set up there should only be seen by folks running to ToRot, which ought to be rarely

... literally within seconds of being instant respawn.
... non-kos (can kill till oom, sit, med and start all over all in a tiny camp)
drops include:
Blue Diamonds (~20%),
Diamonds (~25%),
Ethernere Diamonds (~15%),
Temporal Jewels (~5%),
Ethernere Essences (~15%)
<1% (ish) drop an Stone of Tranquility as well
~20pp in coin too.
my 95 (ish) toon was getting ~1.2% per kill (in a group of a 105, 2 100's, a 105 merc and a 100 merc)
average fight about 30 seconds.
some (if not all) of the mobs:

Slow Steady Safe exp... tested this last night with a fresh group of 105s, NO AAs, TDS Castaway/fused gear and they kill in about 30 seconds and get about 15% of an AA per kill so 6 kills=1aa... not bad...
always a spawn up. Non agro. decent cash drops and I got a rare too, My new tank loves his new Cisim.

Only concern I have is its so good that assholes may pull some tomfoolery to get the camp.... like /reporting or whatever. I'm going to setup somewhere off the beaten path after the patch tomorrow and call it good.
Keep up with your AFK tools and it should not be a problem, I am fine with moving if someone wants the camp.... in the meantime it is insanely good!

Setup there last night and already picked up 400aa for each member of my new team, yes I needed a new 6 man team.... deal with it...

the green circles are not the only camp spots, just the best ones, there are at least 8 more spots that could be camped

Just popped in on my server and walked right up on a group killing, very obviously automated, and who forgot that "auto AFK" is on by default. It looks mighty suspicious if 4 of your 6 toons are pulling, assisting, nuking/meleeing, and healing all while AFK is up. Let's be smart, people. Not to mention I strolled up on your group. MQ2posse is legit and will save your ass. Please check it out and set it up. Also, the afk tools inherent to KISS.

auto afk being on is quite humorous. Yeah, people are getting lazy w/ not using afk tools. Especially if they're using a spot posted on these boards.
Saw this guy parked there for the last few days as well... great camp, but some people do need to be more careful haha

Yeah, zoned in yesterday and didn't see the respawns popping in my spawn window anymore so either he finished or got banned lol. Dude had to have been AFKing there for a few days if not a week straight w/ no AFK tools

I'm curious, what kind of kills per hour are some of you guys getting in this zone when grinding? I'm currently at a spot where I'm averaging 218 kills per hour over a 6 hour period with my non-optimal group (SK/zerk/shm/clr/brd/wiz). I'm guessing some of you guys with 3wiz groups are doing a good bit more.
Yes you'll do fine here. You may want to use either a merc dps or merc healer if you have the heals then get a dps.
If your 105 sk is geared well enough and you can do the dps to keep the spawns going then don't use a merc at all!

There are 60 people on my server. So I was able to pick zone over but I see no mobs anywhere around the green circles? Anyone know why
Don't.
It gives everyone here a bad rap and can only hurt our community. Stick to tools like MQ2Grind or SheiCamp.Lua if you want to semi automated your xp grinding, but true afk is bad. Mmkay?
Also, necropost man.
