I'm a bit late to this thread, but if you do not like kiting and want to become a fast running, slow damaging melee who grabs an occasional partner ... check out the making plat guide. The rabid wolf and rabid bear quests in QH give great plat for the level and also great experience--and a fast running bard is probably second to a tracking ranger in completing these quests. Gnoll teeth are stackable (as opposed to crushbone belts) with two options for turn in, and bandit sashes give experience and plat. The bandit hill camp is the most well known, but has a pesky brigand for early levels. There are at least four other concentrations of bandits in the zone, as well as raiders in NK, SK, and EW (watch out for the druid casters). You will level more slowly than AoE kiting, but it's an option for anyone who starts in Qeynos. Sometimes an empty zone is a good zone.
I moved back and forth from the Karanas to Fadwyer leveling up, sometimes grouping in MM dodging PKers, and sometimes soloing in the Karanas. Play how you want.
