Everquest Plat Farming Guides (55 - 60)
This section has Farming Guides that will most benefit you between the levels of 55 and 60. All of these farming locations are worth while past level 60 but levels 55 - 60 are the first levels you can come here. Two locations that I carried over from the 50 - 55 Farming Locations are the Giants in Rathe Mountains and the Goru'kar Mesa Animals, both locations are still good through this level bracket. Unlike the other level Brackets this one is an important one since it introduces many new great zones. Zones like Skyshrine, Karnors, Grieg's End and Droga become farmable in this level range.
Each of these zones are great for farming and will only get better as you level up and can handle more mobs, especially Skyshrine and Grieg's End. As you get up higher in level, get better gear and more AAs you will be able to pull tons more mobs in these two zones. In both of these zones you can create trains of 100 mobs or more and not worry about running out. As seen in the other farming sections, an example of the format I will use to show you each of the farming locations can be found below.
Spiderling Silk - Cresent Reach (1 - 10) (This link will be clickable and will take you to the page for the Farming Location.)
AA Prerequisite: 0 (Tells you how many well placed AAs you should have before coming here.)
Damage Dealt: 1 - 10 (Tells you how much damage you can expect the mobs to do.)
XP At Location: Yes (Tells you if you will get XP here in the designated level bracket that I gave.)
PP Per Hour: 150 - 200 PP (Tells you how much Plat you will make an hour.)
PP Per Kill: 0 (Tells you how much Plat you will make per Kill. *Raw Plat only*)
Mercenary Requirement: No (Tells you if you will need a Mercenary to hunt here.)
Classes: All (Tells you what classes can hunt here.)
Other: This is really the first location for farming (Gives you any additional information about the location.)
To prevent any confusion about the AA Prerequisite section, the "Important" AAs that I am talking about refer to the defensive AAs. These include Combat Agility, Combat Stability, Natural Durability, Physical Enhancement and so on and so forth. All of these are very important for you to get and should be acquired very early on. Of course if you're a caster you'll want to make sure you are able to take a beating or have the best pet available to you at the time. No one will know your limits better than you, so keep that in mind.
