Direwind Cliffs (Undead) Leveling Guide
***Notice*** Everyone reading this guide in 2018 or later should note that this guide was written in 2009 or so when Underfoot was the current expansion pack. As you can imagine a lot has changed in the game since that time and some of what you read in this guide may be inaccurate or misleading. This page *does* still have some useful info which is why my newer leveling guides link here - but you should understand that most of the information here is outdated, I've taken what's correct and incorporated it into my newer leveling guides.
If you're here from one of my older links then head over to my new Everquest Leveling Guides Index page as you'll find guides for each expansion for you to choose from. I strongly urge you to use these newer leveling guides instead.
Once you're in Direwind Cliffs head west to the camp of undead, below is a picture showing you where it is from the Sunderock Zoneline.
In this camp you'll find at least 4 different types of mobs, all of them being undead. The main difference of this camp and the one above it is this one is pure 100% undead. The one above has some living mobs mixed in.
If you are struggling with this location or any other location around your level I have a few things that you could do to hopefully fix that. First and foremost you will want to upgrade your gear if you're still using Defiant Gear. There are a ton of Attunable items that you can find in The Bazaar, I recommend you buy the ones that are upgrades and equip them. If you want some help finding these items I highly recommend you use my Bazaar Gear Buying Guide (65+). The second and probably most important thing you can do is get all of the important AAs for your Class. To figure out what AAs are the most important AAs to get I recommend you read over my Everquest AA Placement Guide.
With better gear and all of the important AAs you will notice a gigantic difference in your character and what they are capable of.
Items of Interest:
Once you reach level 77 it's time to leave the Direwind Graveyard and head to Loping Plains. The easiest way to get to Loping Plains is from PoK, So head there and take the Ak'anon stone. You will find yourself in Steamfont Mountains. When you arrive here turn around and head northeast towards the Loping Plains and Dragonscale Hills zoneline.
Once you arrive in Loping Plains you will have to head to the northwestern portion of the zone, ALLLLLLLLLL the way across the zone. You will be heading towards the Hills of Shade zoneline.
Note: The two black Squares near the blue line are where there are undead zombies. Watch out for these, they will see through your invis. If you do agro them, keep running and zone into Hills of Shade, then zone back and return to the camp.
