In game currently and my name is Darreth. Not quite sure what to do, thank god for the Wiki. Trying to learn.. Not very easy, but I'm determined. I have to leave here in a little while to go run some errands, but will definitely be on tonight.

Feel free to ask questions here. You can also find me and some others on IRC most of the time. Regarding your earlier questions about soloing/grouping as a cleric - you can solo as a cleric (there is even a guide on the wiki on doing so), but they are the worst of all the caster classes at soloing in terms of EXP per hour. All they do is nuke down a monster, preferably undead (better nukes against them), then sit for several minutes getting mana back. It is very inefficient. You can certainly group all the way to 60, especially as a cleric or enchanter. Clerics are a lot more straightforward. What I'd do is get to level 4 just bashing things, then go to Greater Faydark, get a bind there, and start grouping. First in Orc Hill, then in Crushbone. Don't be afraid to start your own groups. Have fun!
