newbie questions from someone that is new to eq1ish..

[Eternalnoob]

ahh ok thank you i wont be playing on the pvp server i have always sucked at pvp i get ganked die and subsequently look for infants to punch to relive my frustration.
i generally play classes that are needed in mmorpgs but if i remember right clerics are extreeeeemly slow and hard to level? Id love to play a more group oriented class but need one that can solo decently as i dont have tons of time to play.

nothing is really super slow to lvl on p99 unless you force yourself to solo with troll SK. Most ppl are aware of the game mechanics enough to try to duo more than solo. Cleric will have lots of friends (unless your are a chronic ninja afker) and theres lots of zones you can hang out/camp in where you can log and quickly find somone to duo with since you will do work well ith everything except rouge/wiz/druid (since being able to heal does not increase kill speed with these 3 imo)

to sumarize:
step 1 pick whatever class you wanna play except warrior/sk/rogue which need gearing (pally gear ppl practically give away).
step 2 stay in dungeon zones and every time you log do /who all monk +/- 5 of your lvl
step 3 form duo and enjoy great exp
step 4 if no monk available repeat step 2 with ench>necro>shadow/pala>war>sham>mage>wiz>rogue>...ranger?

If you do not run multiple tell conversations in a full group dungeon and die with 80% of your mana as the group wipes, you will always be welcome in a group.
If you do, you will find groups anyway, but you will always be second fiddle to a healer who does not treat EQ like ICQ [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Im not a super chatty person. Im the type thats just quiet and concentrates on doing the role im supposed to do. In eq2 it was heal as a templar im group in wow it was heal as a resto druid or dps as an enhance shammy. In rift i was a healer as well.
