Well, Lv4 now with my first pet. I'm hunting in EC now. All the auctions for stuff I can't afford with my 25pp is disheartening, and it doesn't seem like people want Magicians for grouping, but ah well. Keep trying.

Once you get up to 7 or so you should be able to go group at the orc camps in EC then be fine for quite a while. Can hang out there for a bit then maybe join dervish groups in north ro for a bit...then on to oasis in the teens.

It isn't your class, people just don't really group much yet at lev 4.

I do orcs in EC until about 10-12, then move on to dervish bandits in WC until 16-17, then orcs in Highpass, then goblins in Highhold until 25ish.

Level 6. Skimping and saving as I go, about 45pp altogether. Spending my time at Orcs 1 in EC.

At least Magicians don't need lots of equipment in the beginning to do well. Once I hit Highpass Hold I'll try to upgrade my cloth crap if I have any notable money. Until then I'm gonna be doing the Dervish camp in WC from 12-17.

Levels 12-18

Nybright Sister camp in Lesser Faydark. 6 min timer. Located next to the entrance to Mistmoore. Easily breakable camp even at level 12, has 4 very low HP rogue mobs that drop bronze weapons in addition to low level gems/stones. There is a vendor right there in the zone as well if you are a good race

equipment $ i personally was there till 19 (very slow 18-19) but raked in about 1.5kpp from 12-19

It's basically the same in WC, a Dervish Cuttthroat camp very close to a vendor, with easily pullable mobs. The only worry is a few of them are casters.

By the way, it might be wrong to ask, but I'd like to roll a monk on the side, so if anyone has any spare equipment they're not using that would go well on a monk, like Wu's Fighting Armor or a staff, I'd be happy to take it. =)

I'm giving up on the Mage and rerolling Monk. Mage is far too squishy and dies too much when pet fails to pick up aggro/stay alive, and my nuke at Lv6 is pitiful. I don't think I can make it to the higher levels with this type of class.

Does anyone have any spare Monk gear just collecting dust, like Wu's armor or a staff?

May want to consider a class like Shaman, Cleric, or Enchanter...who can be effective while gearing up. Monk is kinda a PITA trying to raise money with as a first class due to the weight restrictions. Servicable gear for the 3 classes above is quite cheap and all are group friendly. Shaman and Enchanters are also good soloers.

I don't think I'd have to worry about that in a group since it only affects your AC, and I won't be tanking...not main tanking, anyway.

and ac here does nearly nothing
