Nedaria's Landing

While I swear I remember this zone being available during LDON back in the day, on Mangler it has not unlocked as of yet and we are now in LDON, so it maybe best to reclassify it as a Gates zone.

From what I've heard, The Forgotten Halls is gotten through accepting the expedition? A friend told me that having the lowest level player in group get the expedition makes the Mobs inside higer. Not sure how true that is though.

In Jaggedpines Forest, go south along the zone from the SFG crystal.. there is a gnoll cave. Behind the large water pool there is a waterfall, and behind that is the Zone into Nedaria's Landing.

What a shame that so few people use this beautiful zone. My husband and I levelled our rangers there and got great exp., plus lots of tracking. Because we worship Karana (I think) all mobs except the griffawns are non aggro. The wolves however will join in to help out a brother. It's funny to see a huge bear come up and appear to watch you fight a mob. There is plenty to kill at a variety of levels, Best of all the zone is praceful and quite lovely.

It's late and I can't get a group so I decide to start a GoD quest. On the dock leading to the boat, there is a new high elf NPC who gave me an expidition to a new zone, located in the bear cave.

anyone seen this or is it too late and I'm dreaming?

Hi,

My alt ranger, Foraging, by name has spent quite some time soloing in this zone. His primary purpose is to forage for plant shoots in this zone to be used by my main in baking cheesy casseroles. Plant shoots seem to get a reasonable price in the bazaare however I haven't persued that at the moment.

My ranger has been in and out of this zone from about lvl 27 and is now 31.

Suggestions:

1. It is a quiet zone so there is little competition. Plus if you are the right level it is easy to switch to other mobs any way.

2. A previous poster said that the money quests are fine if you are of the right level. That is its bonus xp with some money thrown in. Since you wouldn't have got the xp any way this is fine by me.

3. You need inventory space if you intend to collect for money quests as only the frog skins stack.

4. Hides can be slow to drop

5. The best creature to hunt seems to be the basilisk. This is because they are low on agro, they are a land creature, they drop hides for quests and there seem to be plenty of them. Be careful not to stray near the griffawns if you are below 30 and even at 30 watch it as they seem to agro whether you hunt them or not.

6. Hunting turtles and frogs can be an excellent way of getting your swiming skill up and to practice under water fighting. I confess I drowned once ... very silly death in my book.

7. Panic animal works in this zone for rangers although you only want to do it to creatures that don't gather friends...the wolves are the worst and as said before the basilisks are best.

8. Now that the adventure camp is active in the zone you can probably mooch a heal or buff off the higher levels that are there. I try not to bother them however...I did get a rez for the drowning though...

7. If you take on the silverfur wolves or bears you will get good drops on their pelts ie MQ, HQ etc.

8. For those with LDON its an easy zone to get into and out of using the adventure camps.

9. Finally one tip for the solo hunter with LDON. Put a /say social up eg "butherblock" that way if you must do a runner run to the adventure camp and the magus and press the social... you zone out and viola you are amongst friends who can help AND you don't have to "panic type" to zone as six griffins are on your tail. Remember to consider others before you perform such a train however ;-)

I think this is a good zone for Rangers and those working on their baking, tailoring and of corse foraging!

First admission, it's laggy, but I found the same problem in DSP or Kunark. Turning down my Clip Plane and then keeping one's nose pointed to the ground or just reduce your peripheral vision and hunt the Turtles and Cove Frogs instead.

Much like Stoneburnt, haven't seen a ruined pelt drop yet off the Bears or Wolves - tailors come farm this place and bakers for the Anaconda's.

I find sitting at the end of the Boardwalk has been a nice spot for my 25 somethings or even camping the backside with some help for panthers and griffawns has it's own benefits.

I have yet to use the Wayfarer Scout Porter to check out the other zone offerings.
Wayfaring Scout says 'Greetings Taven! Would you like to travel to [Nedaria]'s Landing, the Broken Shores of [Natimbi], or perhaps the [Abysmal] Sea?'

I was kiting here lastnight with my 24 druid and I noticed that you can climb the wall behind the waterfall. I was OOM and almost dead so I went running for cliff. I ran behind the waterfall and right up the wall top of the cliff. I rested up and later gated out. I sat there for three or four minutes and the MOB did not make it up the hill to get me. Don't know how long you can hangout before or if the mob ever makes it up the hill, but its a nice place to rest.

is there a map of nednarais landing

Now, I'm working on creating some very strong glue we will use to seal parts of the hull of the ship we're building. Thing is, I need a lot of cove frog eyes for this job. If you want to [aid] me, I could reward you and give you some information.'

But then Morden Rasp found me and I haven't stolen a thing since!'

I've never done anything like this before, but I have certainly fashioned new spells and magic over my years on Norrath. I suppose that is why I was asked to help. I met Nedaria many years ago and I believe she trusts me to handle this task. I could use some assistance in collecting some components I need, if you're [interested]. I can also provide you with some information you might find useful if you help me.'

Found a post on EQLive Newbie zone forum. The Nedaria Landing zone in is now behind the waterfall in the Brell gnoll cave.

I zoned in and besides the wayfarer camp, there are now other NPCs, all red to 51. Some give quests that I haven't had the time to test yet. There are several structures, a forge building (no player forge), a sawmill and two very long docks.

All beasties are green to 51. Griffins like you better with wolfie form, cove frogs don't like wolf form. The succor point is at zin.

Simple zone map and map file for use in game.

If there is a cave on the north wall, I must have missed it on my map. I'll go back sometime and take another look.

As was mentioned elsewhere but bears repeating: since the introduction of this zone, the clickable gem from Jaggedpine to SFG no longer works. If you are in JP and try to click through to SFG, you will get dumped back in Nedaria's instead. You can still zone the other direction, from SFG to JP. The gem between JP and Blackburrow still works correctly in both directions.

This gives you a safe-ish way to cross JP if you are afraid of the animals: zone from SFG to JP then click the stone again and pop straight into Nedaria's.
