BountyHunter

I would highly recommend doing this quest line. It's very easy, and can the entire line can be done in one day with assistance. You need to be about level 30 I believe to start this line (thought it might be high 20's). You can check out the quest rewards by going into the city at Strandan . There is a house left from the docks with the quest giver for the rewards only in it. This doesn't start the quest, and these are not necessary to get at this point. But! You can see the rewards at least here and see which ones you'd like to complete fully.

The BH line runs from tier 1 to tier 5 quests, each tier requires 1-2 quests to get the medals for the reward quests. Personally I think it is only worth working on getting the reward from tiers 3, 4 and 5, but check to see what's the best for yourself. You have to do Tier 1 to get the other ones to show up though.

Tier 1 The quest actually starts in River Palace, easiest to access by going into Stranden, then running due East until you reach a city with tents. The quest line will start here. (Also some other good soloable quests around here for low 30's.) BH quests will indicate their tier in the quest description. There's an NPC guard that stands on rock right at the front of the city that gives the first quest.

I believe (it's been a while..) that the quest asks you go to kill a named centipede. In order to start this quest, you need to go straight out from the city into the fields between the cliffs to the left and mountain to the right, and find a named NPC cat crouching by some trees. Not too far out, you should not chunk back to Stranden to find him. Sometimes he is being used by another person, so just wait if you can't find it. Follow this dude until he leads you to the mountain base where the cent. will spawn. At times it's automatic as soon as the NPC runs away, then other times you have to wait a couple minutes for it to spawn.

Turn this in... you can now immediately start on the rest of the bounty hunter quests in any order. The rest of these quests are located back on the beach city in Stranden. I believe tier 2 and 3 are in the city near the temple, tier 4 and 5 are right by or on the docks. Some of the tier 2 quests were bugged when I ran through, but we skipped anyway due to the kinda junky reward. Both are very easy though if you choose to complete, duoable.

Tier 3 One of the quests is called Johnny 5 is Alive or something close. If you look up the hill, I'm sure you've noticed the arena by now. To do this quest, go to the arena, then facing away from the beach, go around the left side to see a broken down robot. You will need to 'activate' it, as noted in the quest, then kill it. This is prob. soloable by a necro, or duoable for everyone else :p I did this with just myself and Fz in our early 30's. It's pretty easy though.

The second tier 3 quest is finding a psionicist along the beach. Since I'm horrible with cardinal directions - standing on the docks, facing the arena, you need to go left along the coast. He will be wandering along this coastline. Easy kill, the only difficulty may be from the numerous adds along the shoreline.

Tier 4 You only need to do one quest here to get the pants reward. You need to get the heads of some dude named Tito I think, then another dude. To find them, head SW from the city towards the arena... you'll need to get up on a cliff south of the arena where Tito is a yellow con until you approach him with the quest, then he'll attack on site. Once he's dead, follow along the cliff more and you'll find the other guy you need. Both again are easy, soloable or duoable.

Tier 5 This quest is on the dock, and probably the only somewhat difficult one. (I couldn't complete with just myself and Fz healing.) You need to obtain a sword, you will need to run East from the beach towards the mountain where you killed the centipede. There is a chest located at the top of the mountain. You need to either have a bit higher level help, or a good group of maybe 3-4 with a healer or two. When ready, you click the chest and the protector will spawn. He has a few more hps and dps than any of the other named on this quest, and the nastiest part is his stun, which is more like a 30 second mez. It's important your healer doesn't get agro or no heals for 30 seconds :p When he dies, turn in, and you've got a new bp!

Easy stuff.... higher lvl people could easily run you through in the period of about 1 hour.
