Specifically, for all the people, particularly with 65's that aren't super raid heavy, that said GoD wouldn't have anything for them.

The first few zones are accessible by all, and range in difficulty from about level 50ish zones, to about what you'd encounter from elemental yardtrash or LDoN hard npcs. In particular, there's 2 zones I think it's worth discussing:

Riwwi. This isn't a hard zone. Almost nothing sees invis here, almost nothing is immune to slow (or mitigates near as I saw), almost nothing is immune or resistant to pacify, mez, etc. Plenty of charmables. It's an easy, plane-of-nightmarish difficulty zone. But then you see the rare named spawns. I spent a few hours here in beta camping some named spawns for a flag quest. During that time, off nameds that double 400-600 or so (so ldon trash), I saw a -lot- of ssra named quality drops. Most were tradeable. Like some arms dropped with aura of daring, tradeable, and 60/60 or so, I think. A lot of items dropped that were pretty much strictly better than ornate, and this stuff was probably easier than BoT trash, let alone nameds. A high 50s group could probably be okay here, if they were careful and all.

Then there's Ferubi, a higher level zone, and man- low level guilds should just go here and make out like bandits. I spent a day or two camping here trying to get key pieces for a flag quest. It's kind of like ssra in that nameds spawned quite a bit around, all are comparable in difficulty, and so on. Nameds hit for 1350ish and were slowable, so not too much harder than say, LDoN hard nameds. The drops were REALLY good for the single-group difficulty. 125 hp aura of daring shoulders with 15 all saves/stats. 100/100 chain legs, 100/100 leather legs. 100/125 range slot with good foci. 85/85 belt. A lot of the items were as good or better than the drops from xp named in elemental planes, or tradeskilled armor from it. Got maybe a dozen of these things in a few hours of camping, all no drop. Basically, any guild that would kill vindicator or umbral plains named should just pack up and go to ferubi and stay there until they've killed nameds for a week, imho. As a side note, almost all these items have +END.:) I have a feeling named spawn rates will be nerfed eventually, as it just seems too lucrative for lower level guilds that can handle the zone.
