Recommended hunting location
A great place for Lv 8s in main to hunt are the troll caves in Ab'Dendriel. Find the cave entrance in the center of town and go down two floors, then proceed north. You will see a door. If the door is locked, go to the cave to the left and find an elf named Shrith. Say "Ashari" then "Key" to him. Buy the key from him for 50 gold. Go back to the door and use the key on it. Go north. Then, use the key on the other door if needed. Proceed up and explore. Note: Do not be afraid to go down the ladders in the center; the only thing in this cave is trolls, and lots of them.

In ElvenBane's basements, you will find good monsters to level on and some armor called "Chain Armor", which you can sell to the the NPC in Ab'Dendriel for 70 GP.

Use the following trick for level 8 knights training in mainland. If you go to Carlin and have a shovel, go to west exit of Calin. Starting walking north until you see a forest. When in the forest, start going northwest until you get out of it, then go north until you see a forest to the left. Note: This may be only be on your map. When you see it, go west until you see the sea in your screen. Then, go to north to find a gray rectangle on your map. Click on it and wait your character go to it automatically. When on it, say to the NPC:
hi
folda
yes
You will give 20 gp and will go to Folda. Once there, you will find many Frost Trolls. Pass the bridge until you see an hole. If it blocked, use your shovel. Go down and you will find Trolls, to the south, Minotaurs, and to the west, Rotworms, If you have good equipment and do not have a shovel, instead of going south after the bridge, go to the west and enter the first mountain that you see. There is a hole at this location that leads to Frost Trolls and Rotworms without requiring a shovel.
