Introduction:
The Ice Giants of Everfrost which are Blue and look as though they are made of Ice are a very good source of EverQuest Platinum. And have around 3-4K HP or so. They drop fine steel weapons, gems, pages, and various pieces of junk jewelry.
They are warriors can hit around 114 and they triple hit and duel wield. There are 3 of them that guard the entrance to Permafrost.
Combined with what they drop and the pure EQ2 Plat, Gold, Silver and Copper that they drop: they range in net worth of 2-70pp per kill.
The camps are referred to as North, South, and Back. Camp names can vary from server to server. They can be duo’s by a few mid to low lvl 40’s full group of high thirties, or soloed by 45+ for the soloing classes. They can be good source of Xp at lvl 45 and under. They are light blue by the time you reach mid 50’s.
Camping:
Many times these may be camped already by other people. But if you do a camp check and find out who is camping they will usually be more than happy to send you a tell before they leave so you can take over the camp. Politeness always gets you a camp, sooner or later. Casting a few beneficial buffs on the persons camping earns browning points too. Another nearby source of Platinum while you wait for a camp is the Woolly Mammoths that roam around Everfrost. Their Tusk go to vendors for around 9PP each and sometimes they drop 2 of them.
Traveling:
The Easiest way to get to the Ice Giants is to get to Everfrost by the Halas Stone in the Plane of Knowledge which is found through the gate behind and to the left of the Nexus Stone.
The Halas stone will take you to Everfrost near the Halas zone line. It is a safe stone for all races/classes. Once you are in in Everfrost you will be facing the PoK Book. Right from the book as you are facing it. You will come to a ‘Y’ in the path take the path on the right of the ‘Y’ don’t take the path on the very far Right though.
Preparation:
Before you head to your camp be sure that you have all your slots filled with Backpacks and enough EverQuest2 Plat. This way you can loot till your heart’s content.
Also, you will get encumbered while you are here. Destroy your copper on a regular basis to cut down on weight issues. But after a few hours it won’t matter anymore as you become snared by the loot you are hoarding. It’s truly wonderful. And also remember to bring food and drink as you will be at the camp for several hours.
