(1) PoK to Nexus
(2) Nexus to Netherbian Lair (NL)
(3) NL to Dawnshroud Peaks (DSP)
(4) DSP to Maiden's Eye (ME)

There are plenty of living and undead in the zone, and adds can pile up
quickly. Be careful if you're a kiting class. If you find a lucid shard,
hold on to it in your bank. You'll probably need it later.

Get a druid or wizard to port you to Dawnshroud to shorten up even that,
if you are felling really lazy, and can get a port within a couple
minutes to save all that time running. :b

Better still, spend about an hour begging for a port in PoK. Then get
fed up spend the 5 minutes the afore mentioned route takes.

LOL, I have been asked to do rezzes in HHK, left PoK and gotten
there before the person who begged a port to north karana just
running in from Qeynos, and my poor little cleric only has run3.
Simply put, beats feets because you dont have to wait on anybody
else. I have made it to CoM before the rest of the group beating
feets rather than waiting for a port to EJ itself...and my poor
computer isnt the fastest zoning box around either!

If you call and wait 2 minutes for a response, I am already out
of PoK and zoned into the next zone, and by the time another 2
minutes has passed and you are waiting to meet the druid
somewhere I am already in the next zone and by the time you are
zoning into that zone, i am into my 3d zone [unless we are
talking that infernal run through west karana that takes me 3
minutes and 40 seconds to cross, or the length of the airborn jodi...

I may be nuts, but I get my little cleric butt around norrath
just fine on my own 2 feetses.

Just out of curiosity, why on earth would you run to HHK from Qeynos when
you have the books at your disposal?

I am not one of those that waits around for a port, particularly not to
such an accessible spot. If I am headed to Western Wastes, I'll often
ooc paying "100pp for a port/tl to CS", if I get any responses within 30
seconds or so great, if not, I start running. It's actually really not
that far to run with the move of PoM zone in to GD.

Because my run is PoK > Qeynos > QHills > WKarana > NKarana >
EKarana > HH ... instead of POK > Misty Thicket > Rivervale >
nasty evil dark woods of death... =) > HH

I like to stop and see if the highland lions are runing amok, or
if some total newb sold one to the gypsies...I have vendor mined
3 of the hides there so far =)

I used to run (and still do...hehehe) PoK>Freeport>Commons>Kithicor>HHK

I remember the first time a firend took me through, the drill was get SoW,
invis or camo, stick to the ledge and run, don't stop for anything....

One day I'm going back to that darn forest!

It's shorter to do PoK->Misty->Rivervale->Kithicor->HHP, and you spend a
lot less time in Kithicor. It's safer to do PoK->Misty->Runnyeye->
Gorge->EK->HHP.

There's music in rivervale?

LOL... I haven't turned music on since 5 minutes after I created my
first character in '99.

I'm probably missing out on some good tunes in some zones... but the 5
minutes I heard loading the game the first time were annoying enough.

Well, the vendor mining is a good excuse, but, even for that, I'd go PoK
-> Misty -> Runny -> Gorge -> EK -> NK -> EK -> HHP. That run across WK
takes forever. But, I suppose if your zone times are really bad, one
less zone might be better than the run across WK, although I'd be
surprised. The top level of Runnyeye is pretty harmless, and a very
short run, the gorge is the same. I used to solo my warrior on the
second and third levels of Runnyeye in the mid 20s.

LOL, i could also 2box in my 56 druid and port my own ass
around=) and the one less zone is much better, and the run across
wkarana isnt bad as i autorun and play with spamming jodis,
randomly killing mobs and otherwise amusing myself. I have even
gone on autorun and gotten fresh coffee=)
