From my perspective, up through level 25 I really haven't had trouble finding groups. People do send me tells and ask me to come join groups. However, I can't really speak for ungeared warriors because I've got nearly a full set of crafted and 2 obsidian shards. But the cool thing is I'm not an alt. People here on P99 are generous. I've had help from friends and strangers alike. Half my gear came from help, the other from busting my ass through tedious guard camping. So there's hope for somebody who plays a warrior was a main character, you don't have to play 12 hours a day and start a caster main to fund your warrior alt.

When it all comes down to it - if you are in it for the long haul, from what I remember we will be in demand when Kunark comes out. My only regret is that I was thinking about playing an SK just for something new, since I played a Warrior to 55 on live.

Tseng - same thing here. I've never had anyone in my group refuse to take on a Paly, SK, or Ranger because of a hybrid exp penalty. Nobody even mentions it.
