<p>I'm currently a Fae Conjurer and around level 16. I'm doing some killing quests of crushbone orcs but the quests are yellow now and might be a bit to hard for me. Where should i goto level next or and alternative to what i'm doing now.</p><p>Also I plan on soloing a lot. If not the whole time. I really enjoy collection quests and harvesting.  I've been harvesting(mineing/trapping/all of them) but usually end up destroying what I get because I don't know what to do with it. I figured at the lower levels its not worth keeping anything. am I wrong? </p><p> I don't have a tradeskill yet also. Don't know how to get one either but what would you recommend? I really want to get into tradeskilling. It seems like it could be a lot of fun.</p><p> and last but not least. AA's.  As I've stated before I'm going to be soloing a lot.  I am also in love with pets. the more pets the better =) Can anyone recommend what I do with my AA's? Right now I have 5 into enhanced earth pet but don't know where to go from there. </p><p>Also I've heard about people leveling and stuff without fighting mobs or questing. Just leveling through tradeskills/collections. Is that really possible? I wouldn't mind  relaxing for a few days just doing that when I get burnt out sometimes. </p><p>Thanks for your help</p>

<p>Other zones appropriate for level 16 would be Antonica and Commonlands (watch out, the guards in Commonlands will attack a Fae if you get too close).  There's lots of quests in both zones as well as things to kill for a bit of variety.</p><p>Regarding tradeskills, you might like to check the <a href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/forums/show.m?forum_id=2588" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">tradeskill forum</a>.  There's some great FAQ's and helpful links in some of the sticked threads at the top.  First thing you should decide is whether you just want to tradeskill for fun or profit, or whether you want to tradeskill to make stuff that will help you adventure.  If the latter then you have to be prepared to keep your tradeskill level at least equal to your adventure level, possibly higher.  This is easy at the lower levels but will slow you down a bit at the higher levels, so keep it in mind when deciding.  If you DO want a tradeskill that will help you adventure, then for a conjuror I'd suggest sage (make your spells), tailor (make your armor), jeweller (make your jewelry), or provisioner (make your own food and drink) would be the most useful choices for you.  If not ... pick what you think you'll enjoy most, because you'll be spending a lot of time doing it!  <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p>There's lots of solo content and running through the <a href="http://www.eq2i.com/articles/Soloing_Timeline" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">solo quest lines </a>is a great way to XP solo.  Yes, you can also gain XP just from completing collections, and discovering new locations, and you can gain a few levels this way without any combat.  There's also some good books you can purchase at the library called "history of the ..." (insert race here), buy the books, read them and get the quests, and then run around visiting certain locations to not only get discovery XP but also quest XP, and a nice book to put in your house.  I am not positive if the library in Kelethin sells them, but if not you can buy them from Indis Surlon in the mage tower in South Qeynos.  </p><p>It may be worth selling your extra harvests - some will sell better than others, but any money is good money, right?  Stick it on the broker and see what you can get for it.  </p><p>For achievement discussions you're probably best looking in the <a href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/forums/show.m?forum_id=77" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">conjuror forum</a>, since achievements are specific to each class or subclass.  I'm sure you'll find some posts that already discuss achievement choices, but if you have specific questions you can post there and get lots of conjuror expert advice.</p><p>Hope that helps!</p>

One thing to add to what Didi said above, is that the harvested items you get in the lower level areas are what you are going to need for your first nine levels of tradeskills.  At level 10, you'll start using harvests from the teens areas, and at each 10th level, you'll start using a new set of harvests.  It is all in the tradeskill forum.
