    Hi all,

    I would like to know some nice spot as a mage. Currently I'm around 70 Magery, but I use Blade spirit scrolls.

    At the moment I'm farming Artich Ogre Lords and some times ettins and earth elementals in despise.

    I remember from my old times in UO there was an Orc camp near Minoc, but I dont know if it worths the effort.

    Thanks!

    I think most orc spots have orc mages which will easily dispel your Blade Spirits.
    If you can cast Summon Daemon, that's a different story, a daemon will wreck orcs easily.

    Daemons are more difficult to dispel? Anyway, I'll continue raising Magery and Inscription and I'll try them.

    1-2nd level champion spawns. If you can survive and thrive out there, you'll be sure to become a true Britannian hero for sure.

    Get platinum coins + a little gold. Some can be skinned (spined leather @ 20gp each at the moment)

    As a mage using blade spirits, you really cannot do better than Arctic Ogre Lords (AOL) in Ice or Ogre Lords in Despise.

    But really, AOL's are the best as the layout of where they spawn allow for very easy escapes from PK's.

    Your only trouble will come from the boss when he spawns. He will dispel everything and wreck you. With a repond instrument you can provoke him onto other Ogre Lords, but he usually blows through their HP before you can provoke another. Best bet is to lure him away from the regular spawn and continue.

    Wind dragon/drake spawn. I’d say it’s maybe the best spot for you with your circumstances.

    2 drakes and a dragon spawn. BS, loot up.

    They can dispel, but in my experiences it has been rare. Either precast the 2nd BS for a quick recast, or cast a 2nd one for quicker kills. The wind drags/drakes tend to spawn pretty quickly.

    They do not. I've never had them do it to me.

    It seems like it has happened to me on a rare occasion. I could be wrong.

    Dragons can dispel if their magery is high enough, typically dragons don't spawn with enough magery to cast dispel.

    I missed this answer. Which ones are the 1-2nd lvl champion spawns?

    Yesterday I face the Artich Ogre Lord mage and I wasn't able to beat him ><

    Yeah, AOL Mages require repond instruments and/or dragons. Just lead it away from the spawn and keep farming the regular ones.

    Trap it in energy fields close to the entrance and stack blade spirits at the door by running in and out precasting. After you get max followers, precast invis and lure them to the AM and invis. Make sure you have stam, cure, and heal pots till you get used to doing it. Then keep blades on it till it dies. The mage will dispell a lot, but, once you keep it poisoned, it will spend more time curing itself than dispelling. Good luck.

    Meh, the entrance trick to kill the AOLM is really an exploit in my opinion. Hence why I don't do it or suggest doing it. And yes I mean both stacking BS's like you said or Doing the other method.

    Did anyone mention shame executioners yet? I’ve never tried w/o provo also but they don’t cast and so blade spirits should be good there. The spawn can be heavy so looting kills could be a bit tricky.

    My only issue with executioners are the floor traps. I am terrible at avoiding them lol...
