Where do most people hang out?

if you want EXP groups the whole way up, the golden path would be something like...

EC > some WC > Unrest > Mistmoore > Overthere > Dreadlands > Karnor's Castle > Sebilis

Pretty good list.

I'd say City of Mist over DL though (Unless you're a Bard)

Have to dispute this list. Outdoor zones have terrible ZEM and worse loot than dungeons. And are way less exciting. I'd go Crushbone -> Unrest -> Mistmoore -> Sol B / CoM -> KC -> HS/Seb. Of course there are plenty of other options as well, but those are the big ones.

Not that it matters since it won't change but I think WC would be better!
- still close to neriak.
- close to halflings/highpass for bank.
- large pond for fishing and swimming skillups.
- both port in spots right thurr.

Shit would be awesome.

Yeah, the ZEM is terrible, and I hate KC, but always groups there.

I always try to encourage people to do Kaesora. It's out of the way so you should bring a group, and CR can suck a lot, but cool zone and awesome ZEM.

yeah Sol B and CoM are better options EXP-wise, but i put OT and DL in those spots on my list because in my experience its easier to get groups in OT and DL (which is what OP was concerned about).

Yeah, zoning into High Pass is the thrill of a lifetime as a really low level toon lol. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Hell even being in the high teens is a heart stopper at times.

Never understood why people take this route. Would always take the NK--> SK ---> Lake ---> Mtns --> Ferrot --> Swamp then the Ro's and oasis to get to Freeport. Sure it's longer, but it's by far easier to avoid mobs as a newbie that way. More open.

Highpass is terrible (if you don't have invis) since you have to run through narrow passageways filled with kobolds and orcs. I once tried taking Gorge --> RE and just trying to mad dash the short distance to RV. Could never make it.

some people find it easier and quicker to go around highpass via Rivervale > Misty > Runnyeye > Beholder. the mobs on the top of Runnyeye are lower level than the stuff in Highpass, there's fewer of them, and if you're careful you can run way up high on the walls in Beholder to avoid agro.

that ramp in East Karana is long as hell, and without invis it is quite impossible to avoid the orcs and gnolls in Highpass

Better yet, just get a port~

aye this route is safer. definitely stick to the walls in beholder though, those muddites will blind you silly
