Yeah we use the tunnel, sometimes arrange a transaction on discord or here and then log in your tunnel mule to make the trade.

Personally I would make my first character one of the classes that are effective with no gear as long as you can afford your spells. But if your heart is set on reliving your half-elf warrior main from back in the day, you can still make that work. The biggest mistake you can make is playing a class or race that you don't enjoy and then feeling that sunk-cost. I just think it's way more fun to play a gear-dependent class with gear.

Well, I enjoyed bard last time I played, and I figured they are wanted in groups. I made a human bard and am level 7, almost 8. I'm dying to group, but the few people I have run into have no desire to group for some reason, or even communicate back. The only people who have communicated back have been high levels passing through Qeynos. I feel like I could make this work solo, and have, but it feels a bit painful as a first toon with no funds. I don't mind the grind, but just killing blues solo gets old fast by yourself.

You gotta get out of Qeynos, that's a ghost town. Get yourself to Greater Faydark and go to Crushbone.

It's unfortunate, but the only zones you can reliably find groups are crushbone/oasis/unrest/mistmoore/city of mist.

I was going to buff some players in Guk last night and it turned out all 3 of them were being PLed separately. I don't understand not communicating back though, no excuse for that. But at this point in either server it's hard to find groups at lower levels. Maybe look into joining a guild, you might find some people with alts around your level range, or will help with ports and buffs, etc.

I tried to make the run, got intsa gibbed in HH pass, and a nice person ported me to commons. Have had some groups around there, and got over to Unrest for a yard group as well.

Yeah, most of the people I've encountered seem to be getting PL'd, and don't communicate back for some reason. I did join a guild. I've found more people after getting away from Qeynos. Alas, the Butcherblock memories will have to sit and wait for a new char roll and someone else wanting to hunt there.
