    Thank you for the info any good drops or just dq's?

    Just like every other mob: DQs with the occasional mat or gear.

    Just that the spiders are easier to grind on because of low costs.

    I personally wouldn't even consider them until at least level 94 due to the damage reductions.

    If you see b:cute be sure to take a second, calm look at anything I said.

    If you're having problems with the spiders at 93, you're doing it wrong.

    I was grinding on the spiders on my Archer at 90 with little problem.

    To make it easier, look into genie skills. I plan on getting a genie, probably just taking a trash genie and re-skilling it, and putting a poison immunity or remove poison skill on it.

    As for Hook and thorn, I found it has decent attack and damage. i like using it in combination with other daggers. I use daggers with procs, use the dagger until it procs (say, for Damage Increase), then switch to hooks. The main problem I have with hooks right now is that if I am in RB or use Relentless Courage, I get to 2.0 with hooks, but I also get to 2.0 in RB or using Relentless Courage using Glowfall Wings. If I'm in RB for an extended period of time, I'll use a dagger with a proc to increase my damage, or with higher physical attack, as the -int from the hooks does nothing for me then. I may also switch when using relentless courage, and switch back when the speed buff wears off, because again, there's no direct benefit to using them.

    96 Demon Cleric/Sage Seeker
    95 Demon Wiz/
    94 Sage Veno

    And a handful of other alts, all 79 and under.

    Ok I wasnt sure never been around there yet. Quick question off topic. I got the lvl 79 skill healing breeze I think? Is condense thorn worth another mil spirit?

    I wouldn't say that Condensed Thorn is worth the coin for PvE. The buff it gives is too short.
