Veksar 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info which is why my newer leveling guides link here - but you should understand that most of the information here is outdated, I've taken what's correct and incorporated it into my newer leveling guides.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.
This area is great for Paladins!
Veksar has two types of mobs in it, undead and goblins. You will first run into goblins when you first enter Veksar. You will have to ether invis or kill your way through the goblins to reach the undead. To get to the undead, jump down into the large room with all the goblins. On the western side you should see a wooden ramp. The undead are up over the ramp in the other room.
You will be fighting the Sentries until about level 50. Once you reach level 50 you'll travel through the underwater Aquaduct (It's marked on your map) to the other side. When you first surface you will see one mob. Kill this then look to the right in the next large room. Be careful in here if these mobs are still yellow to you, they usually don't come in a single pull.
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 You Will Find In Veksar
Kylong Darkmail Gauntlets
At the end of the Aqua duct you will find Rotting peasants, animists, commoners and troopers. They all will be yellow or white to you. If these are two hard then I suggest you return to the previous rooms. Also a side note, the second pull from this side will most likely come with two mobs.

You can hang around in this portion of Veksar until level 57, any deeper would be too dangerous. At level 57 you can leave and head over to Nadox, or if you really like Veksar you can stay here. That choice is left entirely up to you.
To get to Nadox return to PoK and take the Gunthak stone (On the Evil side). Once you arrive in Gunthak's Harbor head southwest to the Crypt of Nadox.
