Congrats, mirajp! I have now spent enough time in the Iqhan caves to get my desire for my character's second RoLS. Back in gargoyleville at 168 rocks!

last time I was there I was still being killed and now I feel I have enough stats not to get killed there

So I guess now I will save skill points or use in fortitude

second RoLs is worth it ...Go for it untill u get it

you should be at BWM and gargoyle caves..
I got to iqhan caves at level 40 and got DoSP but believe me it was very hard ..
you can give it a try but i guess you will come back or u will die
have a look here

i think you should try it out! (iqhan cave)
there are three types of mobs & the they get stronger as you progress
the dark ones in red (thralls?) are the weakest
if you can take out the one guarding the entrance, try the first few rooms
the lighter ones come with & without robes (robes are the toughest)
stick to one on one combat as much as possible (they crit HARD)
save often

IMO: i think you can clear the cave, just remember your potions
good luck!

Although I value most everything I have read from nyktos, take this with a grain of salt. Nyktos finished all quests at level 1...he is not an average player. He has mastered the current incarnation of the game with the fewest resources available. Iqhan caves is probably a little bit above a level 33's head. Somewhere between Level 50 and 60, depending on your build, the Iqhan caves become perhaps the only worthwhile place in v0.6.10 to grind for experience. Below 50 you are spending too much time saving and drinking potions that you can probably level more quickly at BWM. Gargoyle cave is actually very boring after level 30 or so...take it from someone who spent two months there grinding for a darned ring.

you have a good point.
i've played through the game several times & never used BWM as a grind point.
my first time through was just before BW was released...
so there are a few reasons i avoided (and still avoid)
i was dragging out that "first time" for as long as possible
there where horror stories of people getting stuck in the cabin on the Mtn...
i ended up putting off BW vs. Prim until i knew it would be a cake-walk
[another story for another time

]
im grinding for the ElyR right now and its my first 'real' grind session there...
at my level, i am still pretty happy with the XP (@BWM)
and didnt really consider the economics of Iqhan - very harsh there, much upkeep needede
again good point!
i still say give Iqhan a shot if you've got the potions

but i dont really mind dying that much anyway - makes me respect a game!
so listening to me might not be prudent...

just some thoughts
