I have to tell you that with those stats other than your evasion the rest say you will be in Gryph for a LONG time to come yet. I'd recommend Shalswar next but with your shield where it is you gonna get ownd by the Sentinels. Once your shield hits 300 their arrows wont be a problem however yoru other defences wil make Zelots an issue. Your weapons are also feirly low and unles you have very good disablers you wont be able to deal with zealots easy. You definately need more TM to hit them consistant somewhere around 350 is my guess but my guy is a WM soooo may be more for you.
Basically unles you go with a four legged creature you will likely have issues with parry/armor etc.

revisit this thread 6 months from now... unless you're afk scripting, in which case revisit 3 months from now. Otherwise the simple answer is celpeze.

If you're in this 260-320 range, marbled gargs will stomp you, more'n likely.
If you're a premie, the Bristled Red Gremlins in shard are a good hunt in that range, and only a short jaunt from boar clan. (They're not skinnable, but they drop boxes.)
If you're a cleric, the Ice Adders may also be a good hunt for you (Cleric is needed to uncurse the door into the area, unless you go the REALLY long way to get in.)
Also near Raven's Point there's Gryphons, which you should be capable of hunting in the 260 range (not sure on your guild, nor your buffs available.)
All in all, the short answer is 'Not in Boar Clan itself.' However, there's alot of options close by. You may even do well against the adan'f, in shard.

Re: Is there? on 10/16/2011 04:21 PM CDT
So yeah, there's basically something for the whole range there, even imps/buccas for the <50 weapons (assuming decent agility). There are supple firecats in Inner Hib that are premie only - believe those are >250 range. Never hunted there; can't comment. The Zoluren version are decent hunting, though.
I forget when blight ogres start capping out, but you could also give those a try. Good spawn. Nyad/dryads are a bit lower than blight ogres, and begin slowing down on weapons right around 200 though you can milk them for awhile longer. Also good spawn.
And cave trolls on Ain Ghazal for the ~300ish stuff, on top of everything else mentioned in this thread. Those may be your best bet. The pivuhs and angiswaerd train well but the special attacks can add up.
Marbled gargoyles are going to be a tad above your head, as mentioned, and they spend too much time casting imho. With ~360 evasion+buffs I can handle a spawn of 4 okay, but I'm always nervous.
All in all, Forfedhar is awesome. I'd just try your hand at exploring the entire critter chain and take in the sights at the same time.

The supple firecats may be good for you...though with only 250 perception, it may be a bit dicey. You get ambushed some.
Be mindful that they can leap from missile range to melee range; so don't think "That one's at missile and approaching, I have time to kill this one." You don't.

Drys/nys there are evil. I was getting webbed with over 300 evasion and 40 reflex upon occasion.

I try out everything at my level as I move up the ladder. There are some decent areas for your range and above. Dolomar now is good. Then Spider crabs, wir dinego, warklins, piranah, shadow beasts/lesser basilisks. Not sure if those last to are 'out of town' Under town maybe. And yeah, celps.
