I would say bards have little trouble finding groups low to mid levels.. have also yet to find a group mid level turn down a shaman for any reason. Mage too, if they aren't soloing. Low to mid levels you can't beat mage dps between shields and pet.

step 1. make mage
step 2. lvl to 49 (takes no time)
step 3. farm till your eyes bleed
step 4. make the class you actually want to play
step 5. profit

I guess thats not a bad idea either. Getting from 3 to 4 on a druid is such a nightmare.

Guys I really want to play EQ again but am not sure if I can take the exp penalty - I played troll SK to 30 (bluebie) then again to 35 (tallon zek) and it just took forever with penalties. Any chance of removing some of the penalities?

How is the levelling on this server? Old EQ was fun but I have a life now (which means I have more than just EQ to play :P) so is there another server you might point me to?

BTW I played a private server a couple of years back that I believe emulated the Tallon Zek server, it seems to have disappeared. It allowed dual-boxing, was classic (for the most part) and had increased exp as I got to level 40 relatively quickly (2-3 days played or so).

Also do shadowknights get the lifetap spell? Classic EQ was great but not all of the changes made to the game were for the worse! (I quit when planes of power and the bazaar arrived - oh how I HATE fast travel in EQ)

doubtful they will remove the penalties, unless it's part of the patch timeline.

leveling is pretty fun here, i'm having a good time anyway, just don't take the forums seriously. i play a necro, groups in my 20's were fairly easy to find but if not there was always solo.

no boxing at all is allowed here. go meet people, i guess is what they want.

sk's do get lifetap, first rank at lv9.

I have only played for a few days. It's pretty fun if you get into groups, without groups though its' bit tough. Today someone brought their druid over to greater faydark and buffed newbies, it made leveling really fun.

I think EQ isn't about getting to max level fast, it's more about the adventure of getting there.

I agree in principle - but a 68% exp penalty is just miserable. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

it's not the destination, it's the journey?

Been there done that just don't want it to take quite as long as before - the 40% exp penalty was always harsh, one of the main reasons it was removed (and removed even before they ruined the game).

Anyway, I probably won't be playing until the class based penalties are removed - P1999 can't possibly have the number of lowbies necessary to make "the journey" anything like what it was, and tbqh, levelling was far too slow even with that.

yea feachie, its more of the journey what makes things feel more accomplished, and to me more fun

but it depends, some like to rush things to the destination asap to be the "they think they are " the elite, though as far as TR goes, times ive never been fond of them, because of word of mouth, but every member i've met was pretty cool
