NMs (just returned to game)

[Misha]

You won't stand a chance against them solo until you are well into the 40s... unless you party up with couple others around r30 or higher

LoL... Solo'd all mids but Cactus Jack at 32-34, all pretty easy just have high hp. Just make sure you have buffs and cures and the nm's are insanely easy regardless.

Edit: Dots also go super long way... and jeez cant believe how many people are unable to solo these nm's o.O Was 30 conj when the NM's first came out and defeated 5 random ones np... ranked up a bit from leves... did almost all the rest, rinse and repeat for last ones... Think I'm missing what's so hard about the nm's LoL Duo'd my last NM of the new batch at 35 with another 35 (Jack, 1k needles gets split to 500 ^^)

I can't even solo the 2 good ones for CON (the sheep and the gnat) at 50 con...Though, a 50 THM can solo gnat and 50 thm + 50 Con can duo the sheep easily...

so far the only one i haven't been able to solo was the hog. that one did take me a duo after getting annoyed with it. i will try it again another day and see if i can finish it solo.

Went out and started duoing the easier ones at R30LNC with a R35LNC. We were able to take on a couple of them (Queen Bolete, Sykes), but most of them seemed to need to wait until we were 35/40. With R30s-35s in a group you can take any of them.

Holy_Dragoon collaborated with many other members of the community to come up with this list of the NMs, where they are, and what gear they drop.

You rock. Exactly what I needed.

No problem! I've had it bookmarked since the night patch 1.17 came out, haha.

I can solo Queen Bolette fairly easy. You might need to level your THM to get some DoTs if you don't already have them. Not sure if she drops anything very useful, but it might be a place to start. All of the NMs I've done so far have basically been endurance fights, so you could start with her and learn the basics (DoT sticking, MP management, keeping HP topped off) before moving on to the other NMs that have the gear you want. She pops by Camp Tranquil in the BS.
