Any suggestions? I can cast or swing, swinging is preferrable unless it's undead (can't self bless). I'd like to hunt something that I can learn reasonably well from under my own mana.

Bolt AS: 228 (with 513 and signs)
MjE/MnE CS: 138

I heard pookas were good, but that was from someone who hunted there before the changes. I'm still too weak to go up against farmhands.

Rotting corpses in Varunar. 33 or 34. Just watch out for the roa'ters. I hunted there a few times at 16.

Rotting Corpses and Pooka's (although I don't know anything about how they were changed.) Pooka's swarm, and rotting corpses are like zombies, they hate fire.....

Rotting corpses = farmhands. They have like 300 HP which makes me rely on crits to kill them. Pookas are non corporeal, so unless they have really low HP I'd waste all my mana on one critter.

Corpses crit so often with minor fire. You are pretty much 100% sure they will crit VERY often. Pooka's swarm all the time. What I would do was sit in a room for a little bit, and you'd have like 5 or 6 in a room, cone and your done.....

..with 513 and signs. At level 18, with no more than 80 strength, Bob has a WEAK AS of 184 (with 0x and no signs). He uses a +21 longsword, so 205 with his sword and 240 with signs.

What? 228 is the normalish range for wizards that level. Remember that we don't have items or a CM-like skill that add to AS, so we have to rely on 513 and 425 to bring our ROI beyond 2. As soon as I get 425 my AS will be increasing massively because I'm singling in both MjE and MnE.

Not to mention our bolts fly right past all parry DS.

You think that bolt is bad? When I get a chance I'll show you what a weak bolt looks like. Anticor is not a bolter and it shows. At 28 I was hunting kiramon, I would just use haste and tremors worked good for me but my swing was/is big for a wizard.
