Uwibami's Iksar Shaman Soloing Guide

From Project 1999 Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

Hello friends! After having played an Iksar Shaman on Green with the release of Kunark, I thought I would create a leveling guide for the process I took! Thank you to all of the other guides on the Wiki here for helping me find places to hunt, and places to make some money while leveling! Enjoy the guide!

Level 1-3 East Cabilis

East Cabilis Sewers

Congratulations on making your Iksar Shaman! First things first, hand over your note to Prime Hierophant Vek and equip your new Cudgel, destroy the club, scribe your spells and make your way to the sewers (600, -420) You'll want to jump up at the first opening(shown on map) and follow the path shown through the one way walls killing everything and looting and selling everything until you can afford some bags. I highly recommend the 1 plat medicine bags from Field of Bone from Klok Canip (-2261, 3304) as they are only 0.4 stones.

The sewers here have a series of one way walls for each section. You will need to set your max FPS to around 30-35 to be able to jump out of the sewers. Your goal is to get all 3 of the skulls for your first Cudgel upgrade and to get to level 3. The An iksar outcast is level 3 with about 40hp and aggressive. He spawns at either the second or third water opening. By level 2 I started killing all the pygmy barracuda's in the water on my way back to the beginning.

Inner Fire is more mana efficient then your healing spells until level 19. It's best to just spam that to heal yourself. Take your time, these are the worst levels for sure.

After you get Waz, Logrin, and Morgi's skulls, turn them in, along with the Cudgel, to Hierophant Oxyn (Shaman Skull Quests).

Alternatively, start killing in Field of Bone at level 1.

Target LVL HP Notes
A decaying skeleton 1 16 Aggressive
A swamp leech 1 16
A Mosquito 1 16
A pygmy barracuda 2 32
A scorpion 2 32
An iksar outcast 3 52 Aggressive. Avoid until you have some spells and at least level 2.


NOTE: Utilize Wisewolf's Spell Purchasing Guide for spell purchase recommendations moving forward. Especially as money is tight at lower levels.

Level 3-12 Field of Bone

Field of Bone

Overview: Now it's time to make your way to Field of Bone finally! Plenty of things to kill here, once you hit 6, make your way to the pit and pull to one of the south ramps working your way further north in the pit as you gain levels. Great opportunities to group with your fellow Iksar's in the pit as well if you so choose.


Burynaibane Cave 3-6

At level 3, the spider caves located at 'D' on the map are a breeze. This hidden gem is full of spiders, so be sure to buy a sewing kit before coming out so you can combine the spiderling silks. Either vendor them(they sell for less then the silks, but stack), or save them for tailoring. You will get plenty of spider silk while in the pit so it's a great way to jump start your tailoring.

The spiders assist one another, but have a fairly low assist range based on their con, always pull from the edges of the rooms and be sure to check cons. You'll be able to separate them into pulls of 2 or 3 at most once you get a feel for their assist range. Focus on splitting up the rooms, and pull out of the rooms after they've been split to avoid getting additional adds.

At level 5 you should be able to keep the caves cleared by yourself. The burynaibane spider does not assist the other spiders, nor get assisted by them, so you can use this to your advantage. I stayed until 6 when they started to green. Stop in Cabilis and buy spells before heading to the pit.

Level 24-34 Warslik's Woods

Alright, now that you are 24, with new spells and ready to go, it's time to hit Warslik's Woods. Here you can really start making some money and, if you're lucky, a couple of Forest Loop will drop for you. I know I dedicated 10 levels to one zone, but it really is a solid zone with relatively safe exp.
