I have never heard of the dungeons you mentioned, how do you get to each?. been doing tokuno valor champ, destard champ and the newbie champ myself.

i do fan dancer dojo, tried yamadons but only one spawns at a time north of yoshimitsu mines. they drop 2k a pop and can really damage one of my mules. also tried the mines and did not make much inside, and i ran the entire dungeon.

Hi,

I'll share some spots with you.
First, My gear was full relayers/GoC and such (basically 220 Dex with ~350hp if I remember correctly - I recently sold off all my gear to get a fresh start!
Second, I've been around a while, a little over 7 years.

Ill go Fel first, then Tram/Malas/tok Etc.

Fel: Beware - the dungeons might have an abomination in them - quite tough and for end game type players to kill

Forget Area -
Fel Cove - Great dragon spawn there, nice place to take a gargoyle knife and get some leather gems tokens.
Fel Minoc - Elementals blood, poison, air, earth, and such. Great place to farm.
Fel Bucs Den - You can get there through the pillars (you'll need to search online for there exact location - Lots of cool stuff to kill there and a great place to make a boat load of gold fairly quickly.

Fel X-roads Area -
Fel Wind - A little bit of everything - Balrons, Bloods, Deamons, red npc etc
Fel Shame - The lower levels are quite nice to farm for a bit
The GoC spots - as mentioned already in above posts - These places can be tricky and tough but fun
Fel Yew - Orcs orcs orcs and did I mention Orcs?
Lurg Cave - Nice place to hang out
All the champs
Fel Terra Keep - This place can inundate a person with spawn if you're not ready for it.
Fel Ice - Cool place not the best money maker, but still fun
Fel Fire

Tram/malas/tok etc Locations:
Oddly I like despise - the top level the mongbats seem to drop crafting gems pretty nicely though this is just anecdotal
Doom both inside and outside the gauntlet - lots of spawn a pack of animals will need to be well controlled here but its fairly easy to survive.
Fan dancer dojo - and then run left to kill rune beetles
Destard - dragons (can be pretty boring here though once you clear it out)
Blood Dungeon - Bloods, Balrons, Succubus

The Key with a lot of these places to making some good money is in looting - forget a bout webs and armor and such - loot regs/gems/elixirs/resources and stuff you can either use or sell - regular gems can mike quite the tidy profit and dragons drop them by the handful.

For good weps and some adventure - I suggest farming Lady Mel Tickets and doing her. Once you get the hang of the place you can make a decent living looting and getting tickets to fight Mel - She's one that can be done fairly easily with a pack of good pets and a mana leech bow. Every now and again you'll pull some decent weps and/or some imp crystals, and such. She is also, in my opinion, the easiest GoC gem part.

If you can go without pets and have decent stats (220 dex) I'd suggest Twisted Weald - Where dreadhorn resides. The mobs there can drop some decent weps (though, personally, I save the stuff for fighting dreadhorn Until I can do him a few times in a row back to back. The Mobs there are close together and it takes little strategy and skill to fight them off one by one. But even if you aren't super advanced - you can still travel there and farm Gnaw - with pets - he is quite the easy kill and drops fairly decent gold.

Just a piece of advice since you seem fairly new - Get a Bag of Holding ASAP. This will increase the time you can spend hunting and reduce your reliance on pets (like Mules holding your gold) you can also fill it will 60k arrows and bandages and it feel like you can go forever before you restock those items.

If you are using pets - Mana leech on a bow and, if needed, wraith form along with the Cleric heals will help you heal your pets.

Familiarize yourself with the easier and quick to get to Champs (X-roads, Forget, Barracoon, Destard Tok and the like (Helpful Tip for Barracoon - use Vampire form to avoid being changed into a ratman so you can keep yourself mounted) Find some friends that hunt champs and will let you use a bracelet of binding to travel there quickly - You can cover lots of ground quickly

Some of the other fun stuff to look for to fight and prove your mettle. Though you'll have to discover them yourself:
Ediolians - there are 3 (as far as I know) They drop Powerscrolls
The Necromancer (he drops a fairly useless but cool to have cloak)
Black Liches and their ilk
Dreadmare (you'll absolutely need pets for him)
S'gail - Quite the adventure on dying
Most of the Fel Cities are pretty fun

There is a whole wild world in Fel and also little bits of the map that are not often traveled to that hold some cool stuff!

That is just my 17 Cents.

what can you tell me about lady mel? i have not yet hit 21 days, so i don't have mistvale armor yet, but i do have all 70 resists. I usualy use 5 mules while I'm in angel form with my bow.\

also went into fel despise and did not find mongbats, all that was on the first floor were lizardmen, did you mean trammel despise? did some trammel destard and got over 56 diamonds in a short run, how good is fel destard? how dangerous is it compared to the trammel counterpart?

Yes I meant trammel despise.

Fel Destard is about the same as regular destabilize with a minor change: there is a champ (Rikktor) in there.

Lady Mel -
When you go into the blighted grove there are some items you will need to do the “quest” to get tickets. Two of these are monsters located right outside of the entrance. Once you go in there are different types of monsters
GoC monsters - some of these are quite fast and pretty powerful, so be wary!
Then there are monsters you need to kill to get the rest of the stuff to summon her.
Then there are some just random monsters hanging about like boglings and such.

Lady Mel herself has ~80k hp and you have (I think) 20 mins to kill her (been awhile and it never takes me that long). She is fairly strait forward to fight “all kill” all guard etc. she does do something a little tricky: she summons Saytrs, they will peace you and take you out of war mode. You’ll need to be shooting to keep up with the mana you’ll lose trying to heal your mules.
Just kill the summoned monsters as they come and make sure you’re in war mode and shooting And you are good to go.

It might be best to ask a more experienced player to take a few minutes to show you around there. I find most new players die a couple of times before they get the hang of the place. After that though deaths become pretty rare. It’s not a terribly large place, so you can make a circuit gathering the things to summon Mel and looting, then make tickets and then pop out and loot again etc until you build a little store of tickets.

Some bonus tips: raise hiding and vet before you go. Hiding is useful because you can kill the things outside, then when you come in haul tail past the thrasher and stuff, to a corner of the room and hide and drop those guys. Once they wander back to the entrance you can Unhide and commence gathering. Vet is obvious, if your pet dies you can use a bandage and res it rather than carrying around potions.

are there any other dungeons that have just as good gold per time spent, or better?

20k per 20 minutes is a VERY VERY VERY low number. I would suggest you go out and explore a bit more. You should make about triple that amount at the very least.
