I've never played on Red before. What would my experience be?

Since some players left for RoZ, the server population is slightly smaller, but I have heard fewer trolls on OOC. My experience coming back has been fairly positive. People selling their items are fairly rare, and many of the items are expensive, so if you are new, prepare for a longer slog. Andain's guide is also helpful. However, when I have seen items I could afford (in the hundreds of PP instead of the thousands), I have ventured to NFP to get them. A few looked at my equipment and given me other small improvements.

I also joined Sanctuary after my fond memories of them the last time I played there, and have both been given and given away equipment. I have grouped with independent players and members of Savage with no issues, and in Mistmoore, there are sometimes powerleveling groups going.

But if you prefer soloing, there are vast empty or mostly empty zones to experience in and gain items. Hadden is usually up in QH, and the AC can pop with no one camping him. I have been teased for soloing, because there is an incredible grouping bonus. The lower level bonus accelerates those levels whether you are grouped or not.

I don't know much about the 50-60 game, but most of the PK seems to take place in those levels. Since i am enjoying the journey, I am in no rush to get there.
