Obv Necros and Mages can jump on the 6 minute bards ASAP. As a Shadowknight, what is a good level to start on them? I'm looking for nice AFK leveling camps to do while I play Heroes and Hearthstone and read and such.

You could try the one in west karana around 12-13, should be okay or wait until 15 to get snare/fear if you want a safety net. After that it's pretty much the same, you might want to avoid the one in west freeport unless you're human or erudite or can get an invis to make sure you don't get jumped getting there.

I saw a guy killing hermit today and I was super fucking confused. People kill solo static spawns in low zem zones to level? o_O

Well, this server is so bad for group leveling. Its a mishmash of nostalgiatards who want to not EXP but instead talk about the "Old days", high levels camping items/zones/farming, PLers destroying entire zones and Bards making certain zones unplayable. Solo static spawns are more fun and reliable imo.

Complains about people soloing or taking the easy route instead of grouping

I'm taking the solo route, not the easy route. I'm a tank with a huge exp penalty. When you can change the culture from fungi monks tanking until 50, or Ragebringer Rogues at level 10 who are impossible to tank and groups who want me over a twinked out warrior with an EXP *bonus*, I'll be happy to join groups.

Tried that once. Sociopaths with gear made it very clear they don't want new players on that server. Message heard, loud and clear.

Do you have an Iksar SK on Blue, by chance?

Considering I mentioned my Exp penalty, that would be a safe assumption that I have an Iksar SK, yes.

Why do you ask?

Trolls and Ogres are both also SK races, and both also have an exp penalty, so just knowing that you have an exp penalty does not mean that it's a "safe assumption" you're an Iksar.

In theory you should be able to solo anything that a necro would solo (outdoors), just a couple levels later unless you're decently geared.

All hybrids have an xp penalty. That information doesn't narrow down the list of possible races you may have selected.

In my original post I had typed "68% penalty" but when I had to re type it(thanks iphone!) I put "huge exp penalty" or some such. Which is why I thought it was clear of my race or at least 1 of 2 possibilities. Apologies.

But I have an Iksar SK. Why do you ask?

I think we grouped in Kurns the other day. You were going on about how awesome WoW and post-PoP EQ were.

I 2 have a Iksar SK and you can pretty much kill anything from venders to Bards to guards as long as its not in Cabilis. Who gives a crap about faction otherwise. :D

So in reality its the best class, race to be. But slow as hell XP wise for sure.

Possibly. I love WoW yes. PoP was the end of my favorite EQ times. Post-PoP I hated, other than some LDoN.
