Should be plenty easy to level through solo. If you're playing a solo class you'll have most of the popular solo spots to yourself and the few people who wander by aren't likely to be in range. Group xp is so fast, even classes that typically only solo end up getting groups.

I'm only asking incase I get denied for joining Holocaust. They may not want me, considering my toon would be a Paladin.

You can enjoy red99 without joining a top dog guild. Just really depends on what you want out of the game.

I find things change when you hit 56 because even the small guilds get associated with one faction or another (Azrael or Holo or whatever). This means you are open season to all lvl 60s unless you ally with a side.

One group is not better then the other, its just a reality on the server when you lvl up.

I kinda thought Holocaust was recruiting at all levels. I didn't think I'd have to get to 50+ to even be considered.

Kind of defeats the purpose of joining Red, if I have to get to such a high level to qualify for a decent guild. I'm also never intending to do any sort of content other than casual planar trash.

like i said it all depends on what you want out of the server. Its a time locked... ya...

sounds like you should join Fresh

I have four big goals as a Paladin.

1. Get the Epic, Fiery Defender (or Fiery Avenger minimum).
2. Full suit of Valorium armor.
3. 41% haste belt from Sky.
4. JBoots.

Accomplish all these, and I will be happy at level 60. Poopsocking and batphoning named mobs (aside from the ones necessary for my epic) concern me not.

Maybe I will give Red a try.

[Juhstin]

Don't join Fresh. You don't want to associate with Max

[Malevz]

Holcaust at 4% capacity.

no variance = no poopsock

[Genedin]

Super easy. Would never suggest soloing shit is dumb with a 300% group exp bonus.

Tons of people go it alone, and there are multiple other guilds you can join.

Welcome aboard.

Ask our boy Gobbles if we took care of his pally

Is that what you guys call Farzo now?

[Clark]

Not that tough the xp bonus's are crazy huge.

Also no xp loss in pvp anymore.

[Loadsamoney]

Well, I'll see if I can find a nice guild to join along the way. Hopefully there's groups at all levels, because I suspect 18 and onward will be the biggest stretches.

lol

[Farzo]

Yah easy. /who all Azrael when your on next ask any of them for help and guidance...Azrael well known for helping new players.

They aren't a zerg either well....once every year or so they are..

[Loadsamoney]

I'm only level 2 but I've bumped into a few people and nobody has given me any trouble yet. The server isn't as dead as people think.

I think I could grow to enjoy this.

[baalzy]

Random people also in rags aren't likely to bother ya. Tanks are fairly in demand for leveling groups. As long as you're not on the red eye / europe shift you shouldnt have too much trouble grouping.

That depends on whether or not I can secure some equipment, at least a SotM, banded, and 2 55HP rings. I can't really expect to tank and deal reasonable damage or live long without at least that, even if I have good snap aggro.

Hopefully there's a market for Bone Chips.

[Niedar]

Unfortunately there really is not a market for Bone Chips.

Well there's at least a quest for them.

Next time I'm online I'm gonna try and inquire about joining Fresh.

[Infectious]

Best way to get yourself some fast, easy cash is get yourself 2 magic weapons and just farm willowisps. Each greater light stone will yield you 11pp after you do the quest at gypsy camp in karanas. At level 15 or so you should be able to slaughter the whole island. Just empty your bags and fill them up. Each run will yield you 600pp or so.

I may just try that. What island though?

[Yumyums Inmahtumtums]

Eruds crossing.

Fwiw there are probably more wisps in north karana right beside the quest turn in NPC. Don't know why you'd want to venture so far...

I honestly wouldn't. Not until I can afford Jboots at least.

Does Fresh have a guild recruitment thread? I didn't see one on the first page.

[Niedar]

They spam recruitment in /ooc all the time.
