<DIV>So, remember the Dunkin Doughnuts commercial where the guy runs into himself as he is leaving the house? </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>"Time to make the doughnuts...... I already made the doughnuts."</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>That is kind of the way I feel. I have the luxury of playing at work withuot to much distraction... I know I know, and it is my job and you can't have it. :smileyhappy:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>In any case, I wanted to share my route with the forum here and see if I can make some improvements to it or some other ideas of spots I can hit while soloing for the obvious cash, masters, whatever. I am not raid geared, I do have a few raid pieces and the following route if I really knock it out takes about 3 hours.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>1) Cazel's Mesa, I hit the first 2 named groups in there. I have yet to see a master but the stuff that drops sells for decent to a vendor.</DIV> <DIV>2) Then use my mirror to go to Shimmering Citadel and hit Poet's Palace, I do very difficult although I am not sure that I see a difference, but it can't hurt. Initially I would just go hit the rings on the 3rd floor and go to the 4th but I have now taken to killing Aysor and his eye as well. It doesn't take that long once you get used to it.</DIV> <DIV>3) Next, I gate home and go to KoS via Commonlands, I stop at Bixie Island to see if Championess is up then head over to Vultak and see if the named carrion guy is up. </DIV> <DIV>4) I now hit the portal over to Barren Sky and go hit up the Nest. I only kill the first named. I can kill the others but my god it takes forever and the risk versus reward is just not worth it.</DIV> <DIV>5) After the Nest, I head over to the Bonemire via Isle of Awakening and check for Gloom on shattered Weir, fly to Drednever and check for the spider, then head to Halls of Fate and check for the Abomination.</DIV> <DIV>6) Now, my Call of Qeynos is not back up so I use my Splitpaw Shard to head to Thundering Steppes with the ultimate goal to get to Greater Faydark.</DIV> <DIV>7) In Greater Faydark, I stop at the Acadechism and kill the first named in there. </DIV> <DIV><img src="/smilies/b2eb59423fbf5fa39342041237025880.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> Lastly, I now head over to Mistmoore Catacombs and check the 3 named spawns in there, usually camped but still check.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>So, in about 3 hours or so, I have a chance at I figure, 13 master chests from instances alone. Yay for non contested stuff. I get a master from Poet's about every 3 runs and typically I get a master every other day or so doing this. Masters aside, I vendor almost all of this stuff. I do get quite a few rares from Poet's and sell those on the broker, otherwise it all gets vendored. At the very least, I can go buy my masters with the proceeds from all of the stuff.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>So.... any suggestions anyone is willing to give up? Any ideas of other instances I am missing? </DIV> <DIV>Thanks in advance.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV><p>Message Edited by beornj2 on <span class=date_text>12-28-2006</span> <span class=time_text>07:09 AM</span>
