    I agree, unless you are in a group, or at least lvl 38 (w/ pet or demon) or lvl 40 anything else, soloing STV is going to get real tough.  Try Duskwood till you hit lvl 40 then you can take on STV quests, as long as you do the easier quests first (Green). 

    On a side-note, for hunters this is a really good place to get new pets, or learn new abilities to add to your training list.  The most popular pet seems to be the lvl 41 Elite Cat called King Bangladesh.  He comes with claw 6 and dash 2, which is always good.  Also, if you want kitty to be able to sneak up on people invisibly, most people would tame the shadowmaw (i think thats the name..) panthers.  These panthers have Prowl 1, which is cool and all, but if you want the best abilities for your pet, go to the island NE of Booty Bay (the island with the giant king kong-like gorilla).  There are jaguars on this island that have Prowl 3.  Tame em and keep em for a while till you learn the ability yourself, then dump them and train your pet with Prowl 3.  Invisible kitties Rock!


    2 more quick notes:

    1)  King Bangladesh comes with about 52-55 dps.  He is a mages nightmare in BG but be careful.  He uses claw so much he drains his energy as soon as he gets it.  I would suggest casting claw manually instead of him doing it automaticly.  This leaves you energy for your cat to dash or growl to take aggro onto himself =]

    2)  Dont bother training the Shadowmaw leader Bhag'thera.  He sucks.  He doesnt even have prowl lol.. hes fast but his DPS is lower than King Bangs, and so isnt everything else it seems.  Go for king bang. 

    I have a lvl 56 Hunter and ive used king bang since lvl 41 :)  once u get this pet theres really no reason to get another one unless youre attempting to learn their abilities to teach to banger.

    Hope this helps! Ya this should have most likely gone into a Hunter/Pet topic, but hunters that are new to STV could really use this info.  Enjoy!
