There were 5 of us and when we began, the range was 13-16 (I was r15) and I personally was getting 333sp per Cassiopeia, and there wasnt much downtime so I think that should be added as a camp, provided there arent more than 2 parties there at a time.

    EDIT: I think its feasible to SP on them till rank 20. Im now r17 and still getting 300sp per mob.
    That's odd. There used to be loads of them around Daddy Longlegs camp. I guess I'll have to go look again.

    EDIT: There are at least more than 1 at this camp as they are a lottery spawn from Hoverfly Swarms which also lottery Footpad Soldiers. Roughly the same range in rank; Still fairly fast respawns.

    I haven't been to Cassiopeia in a while, and certainly not since patch. I know there is a room on the lower far east side with about 10 Buccaneers inside, but the respawns are really slow. You'd have to go back out and stomp around the puks and jellyfish in order to keep SP flowing.

    Grind Camps

    I've posted this on my own LS's board, and I guess I should share it with the community. I guess maybe if more people knew where and what, they'd be doing it, eh? Anyway, a quick guide from R15 to 50.

    RANK
    [15-19] Yarzon Bleeder @ Camp Horizon > Outside Copperbell Mines (Duo/Trio).
    [15-20] Monkeys/Puks @ Mun-Tuy Cellars (Full PT).
    [20-24] Cellar Puks @ Nanawa Mines (Full PT).
    [24-29] Skeletons/Gnats @ Mun-Tuy Cellars (5,4)(Duo/Trio).
    [25-29] Hippocerfs @ Camp Dragonhead >(31,19) (Light PT).
    [25-31] The Thousand Maws of Toto-Rak. (Light PT Required).
    [25-30] Cursed Eyes @ Nanawa Mines (4,4) (Duo/Trio).
    [25-30] Antling Diggers @ Copperbell Mines 2F (Full PT).
    [29-34] Black Efts @ Camp Nine Ivies (Light PT).
    [30-34] Yarzon/Puddings/Buccaneers @ Mistbeard Cove (Full PT).
    [30-34] Goblin Freesword @ Camp Dragonhead (43,21) (Light PT).
    [30-32] Buccaneers/Toads @ Camp Bald Knoll (Full PT).
    [30-39] Young Raptors @ Camp Iron Lake (27,11) & (27,9) (Full PT).¹
    [30-32] Nightblade Assassins @ Halatali Cave Entrance (41,31) (Light PT).
    [30-39] Antling Diggers @ Halatali Southeast and Southwest (Full PT).
    [33-39] Venomtongue Assassins @ Halatali Cave Entrance (39,29) (Light PT).
    [33-39] Ixali Fencers @ Camp Emerald Moss Ixali Fortress (Light PT).
    [33-39] Ixali Fencers @ Camp Glory Ixali Fortress (Light PT).
    [34-39] Black Efts @ Camp Emerald Moss > Treespeak (Light PT).
    [35-40] Dusty Mongrels @ Camp Bluefog (23,6) (Light PT).
    [37-39] Venomtongue Assassins @ Halatali Cave Entrance (44,25) (Light PT).
    [39-44] Mountain Peiste @ Camp Riversmeet (20,22) (Light PT).
    [40-44] Goblin/Diremite/Vulture @ Camp Tranquil >Silent Arbor (42,43) (Full PT).
    [44-49] Grass Raptors @ Camp Dragonhead > Boulder Downs (Full PT).
    [45-50] Dezmael Darkhold (Good luck with that)! (Full PT).
    [49-50] Grass Raptors @ Camp Ever Lakes (Full PT).

    Note that the reasons for designating Light PT or Full PT is due to mob count and long respawns. It does not mean that a Full PT is required to grind at these camps. If I've missed a place or you have something to add, please feel free.

    EDIT:
    ¹ I want to add that a lot of people are saying that they're running out of Young Raptors going in at the early 30's. It may very well be that this camp, given the range of their ranks, it be best to go in 35-39.
    Just re posting this so everyone can contribute and use the thread again. Also XooZQ if you wanna just copy/paste this again and make a new thread so you can edit it, then do it by all means.

    Here's the raptor camp map from that other thread since it's going to sink now.

    Again, moving between the 3 with a light party was netting us between 18k-20k/hr.

    And no, I won't re-post this thread again, for having fair effort wasted on the grossly immature. I'll put it up on a simple site and post the link in a few moments.
