The dorf foreman would let me in, but can anyone tell me how hard this area is? Could a 14 mage manage himself solo in there?

I would not recommend anyone unfamiliar with the area to enter it alone. If you do anyway be very watchful of what happens. As far as a recommended group I'd say 3 level 15ish is a minimum if you don't know the area.

Well this area is kinda hard for a level 14 :p . There are like 5 nasty spiders . The problem is that you need to be fast and flee before the spider start to weave her web :p if you fail to flee or if you are too slow you will be cocooned which means you won't be able to move anymore and you will die like 1 day mume time ? if no one come to save you !

In case you go solo :p make sure you have some friends around to help you in case you get cocooned :p

How quick do you have to be anyway? Do you get a good warning? I'll prolly wait some levels and see if I can enlist some others in an adventure. I'm going to guess you can earn the BM citizenship from questing down there

I can't remember exactly :p but yes there is a warning like : the spider start quickly weaving ... then you have to flee quickly . I remember I did it like 3 times with a friend and once we got cocooned both :p . fortunately someone came and cut the cocoon ... it was fun tho :p
For sure that place doesn't load bm citizenship ! . It loads only some gold and war mattock :p .

Last I checked it wasn't a war mattock, it was a steel-shafted mattock.

Yeah, these days the main loading-stop of war mattocks seem to be the shops of Arda!
As much as I've played in 2008, there always seems to be at least one war mattock sold in some shop of the whitie side.
Then again, more seriously, I think it's kind of expected. Most of the legend eq is has shop-prices far lower than their "general playerbase market price". War mattocks on the other hand are worth a lot more in shops than in regular play, thus those who have an extra war mattock, and no friend to spare it to, just sell it.
