Why is it so hard to get a group in Old Sebilis?

I'm guildless and most of my leveling friends have quit. I never have an issue finding a group in seb. I think it's your class, not some elite conspiracy agenda.

Yeah, I suspect class perception is playing a roll also.

I don't mean that as a general diss on necromancers, either. Just how the majority of eqers perceive them in group settings. It sucks cause I've seen some balling necros pulling off some neat utility tricks and great dps in groups.

Agree, it does suck. Because of how necros work with all the health/mana juggling and such, a well-played necro makes a strong group much stronger by a noticeable margin (but, I'm a little biased, lol).

It is and always is and always has been hit or miss LFG in Seb. A big thing to consider is that moving around in Seb is difficult and people are lazy. That's where rogues shine, but there's often an over saturation of them when I'm there. Most groups can use 3 dps. Other roles are almost always a single slot in the group. If you're not needed to replace one of those single slots you're not getting invited. P99 mentality is 100% efficiency when you're dealing with experienced players.

I suspect you are correct as well. The one time I was able to get a group in Seb, was when I managed to go deeper into the dungeon and bump into a group that already had an open slot, but wasn't actively looking--likely due to it not being worth the trouble to clear a path to pick up someone LFG at the door.
