err not even. SK is always in demand for leveling groups. SK doesn't even need an expensive weapon compared to what a warrior needs. Spells give the SK pretty good aggro control, and they can even solo pretty well when zones are slow. People play bards because of the pathing bug, to swarm kite for fast leveling. Way too many bards and have pissed a lot of people off. For bards lfg, you're competing with other bards for a group spot, and while some groups just rather not have a bard.

OP doesn't seem to be racing to lvl cap, would consider crafting, and smithing is actually pretty easy before cultural. This would be ideal for an SK, because as far as for leveling, fine plate is really all you need until later levels when you decide to do some armor quests. Early/mid lvl STR items just so you can carry more loot, like Hero Bracers. Or for human, which would be my suggestion in this case, some str and a little int.

But as I wrote above, you can be mostly geared before lvl20 (apart from like hero bracers unless bought), no one would turn you away from a group... and you may be annoyed by tells asking you to join groups [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
