Worth it to start on green?

[Dezik]

Hey guys,

Was contemplating starting a dwarf cleric on green, but don't really want to play it if the low level group action is non-existent. Anyone know how populated it is now days? And if there are any groups going on in the mid-low level range?

Thanks!

[Fleelord]

More populated at lower levels than any other server I believe.

[zelld52]

have been lots of groups from 10-60 recently. must have been a big influx of new players recently

[Tethler]

Not sure what the low level scene is like nowadays, but I'm confident it's more active than either blue or red.

Dwarves are fantastic and so are clerics. You should have a fun time.

I passed through greater faydark, BB, and steamfront yesterday on the mind numbingly boring Tashania spell quest

Gfay was BUMPING, like 10-15 newbies there most likely at the orc camps outside crushbone. Steamfront was kinda dead but it was dead when I was there as a noob last year too. BB had some low levels in it, about 5-6, more high levels there killing guards though

Green still has a low level scene but it would be good to friend everyone you group with and then you can eventually get a consistent static duo that way too

Newbie zones are doing well. Even qeynos has a bit of opportunity.

Its slim pickings from 35-50 but every other level range seems decent

Meh it’s about the same these days. If you go to the popular grouping zones you can find a group (although surprisingly on both servers I’ve recently had trouble finding any groups going even in unrest or CB)

the low level zones used to be populated by the the max-level video game addicts and their 3rd and 4th alts. now, they're trapped on their 60s on the neverending treadmill that is velious raiding, so the 35-50 stage (where most boomers revisiting their childhoods get bored of the grind die out) is now a bit sparse

the burnout is happening now though, so might perk up a tiny bit, but most of them will just quit

need new purple asap


ps still totally worth playing on green EQ is a fun game and its free hehe and its got so many monster girls u can kill even rat girls :)

[hannahgrams]

but there will always be groups. put together shitty ones, msg people from halfway across the continent. port over to join a group and arrive and buff and instantly die to a train and log out. do dumb shit and play EQ and have fun. green still rulez because it you still might end up with a tank in full banded or full velious plate. THE THRILL OF THE UNKNOWN

Nah, come play TLP. None of this unclassic nonsensense. Just loot and friends. You can literally delete your fraps programs and join sanity again.

Bit rough getting a group in my timezone - I'm currently working on a level 18 HE cleric

This

Remember in the golden days of live EQ when you would join a group and see the tank has x2 lamentation, some cobalt and an SSB? and breathe a sigh of relief.

or you join the group, and the tank has banded/crafted, and a 2h exe axe? then the oh shit feeling sets in.

That goes for any class. like a cleric holding club*, monk in full curscale etc.

That nostalgia is powerful. Good times :):)

Yup, Aradune has been infinitely more fun than here over the past year and change.

Most populated level route imo!
1. Gfay/Crushbone - 1 to 15
2. Unrest - 15 to 25
3. Mistmoore - 25 to 30
4. Highkeep Hold - 30 to 35
5. Splitpaw - 35 to 40
6. Cazic Thule - 40 to 46
7. City of Mist - 46 to 48
8. The Hole - 48 to 60

I'd be interested in hearing others opinions. I've taken my main and alt this route in the past few months, and it was the most populated I've found. 46-48 is the hardest to find others. 25-30 in mistmoore can be forced to duo/trio, not as populated here.

[Fammaden]

That seems like a legit xp highway, though I haven't personally leveled 1-50 ranges on green since before Kunark. Surprised about Mistmoore though, 25 to 30 is very viable in unrest and should be much better xp from the ZEM.

EQ subs dropped hard at GoD, I can see why. Enjoy though.

They did back in the day for sure, Gates on a 3 month time frame and 15+ years later is an entirely different experience. Or so I’ve heard countless times. Guess we’ll find out

[doodoobrown]

ive leveled a shaman from 1 to 47 the last few weeks. you can find groups and people to duo with at any time even the middle of the night. I would prefer prolly +300-400 on green, but in all reality its still got plenty of nerds to hunt with.

agreed, thats almost exactly the leveling route ive taken.
