    Leve Nodes & NM Spawns (Aggressive Mobs Too)

    SE needs to relocate some nodes on r30 & 40 BOT leves.

    r40
    Treespeak (Cieldalaes Amenities) - Haughtpox Bloatbelly spawns right next to a possible node for this leve, making it impossible to complete.

    Iron Lake (Logging Iron Lake) - This may have been Sprucing Up Ships, but the nodes can pop in a valley swarming with Kobold Prelates. I have yet to be able to complete this leve.

    r30
    Nophica's Wells (Battling The Blight) - This could have been Support Our Mines as well, but the Elder Mosshorn spawns on a node. Impossible to complete if it does.

    While I agree the Iron Lake leve needs adjusting, I have never failed the leve due to the Kobolds. I have however died three times on it due to the mobs which is a pain in the ass. I find patience is key with that, waiting for the mobs to move away. But sometimes they'll return before you finish the node.

    The Treespeak leves I aim to do during night since the goblins spawn during day hours. If you happen to get to Treespeak when it's day time do the 3 points leve first. If you're mining then the goblin can affect both leves so you may have to check which camp the goblins are at before starting a leve and then do the other one. Just a quick "fix" until SE get round to changing them.

    There are some R30 nodes north (and one or two west) of Camp Glory where Antelop Stags/Raptors roam around.

    Then there's the 36 BTN quest. No matter what way you go to the instance south of Crimson Bark you need to run through R55 raptors/flytraps/birds, all that aggro. Kind of suicidal for a R36 quest isn't it?

    I agree. Support Our Mines has problems with Daddy Longlegs guarding the trees most of the time.

    Not the best solution but I hadn't had a problem with Mosshorn until today. I equipped a bow and pulled him away from the tree and managed to log the tree without him agroing. You'll die pulling him away but you've already touched the crystal to initiate the leve so it's fine.
