Funny that you should mention that. I was broke and disappointed with Nek Forest & EC that I was ready to wander off to a different starting area (I was even thinking of rerolling my L6 DE). Just as I was walking up the ramp to leave Nariak, I saw a pair of players killing the DE guards. There were guard bodies everywhere and they weren't even bothering to loot. So as a new player, it was my duty to clean up the litter and after the effort, I walked away with 200pp. I did stick around 30 minutes cleaning up before they left.
Yeah that's about the only thing to do there, kill guards and golems, have done that quite a bit, though not so much a starting activity.

I mean there are a few camps, for one or two people, but the majority of mobs will swarm you there, with little to no real loot. An obelisk camp that's interesting with it's four mobs, next to the EC zoneline. The wizzy teleport, some spawn but mob level varies a bit much. Best thing is hit the newbie area for some levels and work your way over to Befallen as you can, there's that at least.

I tried solo camping the halflings at the Haunted Ruins at Nek, but there are 5 all bunched up together at the ruins itself. A bit to the north-east, there are 4 halflings spread out in a picket line who are pullable with Lull, but there are so many wandering skeleton mobs which will disturb you while medding. There also seems to be a higher level halfling that patrols that whole area too (it took the 2 NE guards at the bridge about 8 seconds to kill this mob). Nothing but aggro central. I love P99, but I also like what Nek looks later on in the current live.

With the Enchanter's Human illusion, do you think I can make it through Qeynos > Erud's Crossing > Erudin > Toxxulia Forest? I want to get from L.6 to L.8 so I can begin the Stein of Moggok quest. Then I'll probably head to Blackburrow and work on Qeynos faction.

If you're agnostic, you can pretty much go anywhere you want with your illusions. Just be mindful of pathing guards near zone lines, since you need to recast your illusion on the other side. You can also utilize Invis.

Now are the guards at the Freeport Caster guild different? I attempted to walk to the caster guild with my agnostic DE in human illusion form. They instantly aggroed on me the moment that I walked the corner.

I arrived at Toxx and I'm really enjoying the zone.

To double check, I just took my Dark Elf enchanter there myself. Fired up Illusion: Human and walked over to the caster guild. Every npc in there was amiable. If I had to go out on a limb here, I'd say you aren't agnostic, or your illusion wasn't on.

Edit: They are threateningly if I drop my illusion.
