Brand new player - what should i expect for grps?

[August]

Make what you want to play.

Find me on any char in my sig and I can throw you some starter weps / gear. For a war I believe I have like a kunzar ku'juch, shimmering partisan, couple of HP rings, etc. You should never make a character to twink another character, unless you legitimately like both classes.

Personally, I don't play gear dependent classes unless I can twink them - but that's because my favorite classes are not gear dependent, and the others are only fun to me if I am nigh invincible.
