I don't want to trade plat on Blue at a terrible ratio for plat on Red.
Then don't play there Shatford if you feel like it'll be too hard. Starting from square one is classic, and with the XP rate it really isn't hard to get levels with even the most basic gear, particularly in a group.

I also think there's a lot of trepidation on starting a new toon on Red: will there be people to group with? Will I be annihilated as soon as I start playing by a twink with a fungi? Those kind of fears are what keep a lot of people from switching.
If you think about it forever you'll never do it. Roll one when you can't find a group on blue, or when you're just bored and want to try something different.

Red pals say it time and again... just stay out of Unrest/Mistmoore and you'll be far less likely to encounter someone like that. Don't flat out avoid PvP and run for the zoneline as soon as someone swings a sword at you though - you'll never improve if you don't engage.


Honestly, give it a try... you'll be pleasantly surprised.
