If you can't beat them, join them.
And to the guy above me;
"No just spots not right out in the open such as hedges or rg, even training when not many on.
Or Barracks or IT or the sewers or the large forest or the gnoll fortress or the spider tunnels or the... Do I need to go on? "
Then don't train there, there are tonnes of other places where there is good experiance. Faravar is namely one of them, and because of the traps and the ktp nobody is going to come up there just to kill you. That mountainous area south of rose garden, even the mountain path on the way to Balrog for the wolves/mountain lions. Even, if you have a couple people with you, the desert - nobody will find you there.
The NM world is definately big enough, and I have listed some of the more obvious areas, but there are many more you can hide from.
Yeah but for training low levels that doesn't make any sense. When you're a higher level sure, but before that you might as well tuck your head between your legs and kiss your butt goodbye. Training an adept pally doesn't really work for that. I just have to hope i gain more exp than I lose I guess.
As far as "If you can't beat them join them" When was the last time Pande was accepting new members?
