People powerleveling is becoming extremely disappointing for someone trying to exp.

Isn't the cap on exp for 1 kill at 12% or something

Also old world leveling is the best. Lol at anyone recommending kunark mobs to a solo'r for xp; the mobs have double the hp.

Seriously.

I was in Najena at lvl 25 which is slow at that time anyway. It wasn't long before a 48 bard (lmao) is grabbing up all my goblins and spiders. For what? They are extremely green to him, and spiders don't even drop mage focus items if that was the issue.
So I died trying the higher lvl skeletons he left, because charm wouldnt stick.

Upper guk was also rife with plers, and anything I could safely exp in there was shot.

Move on to Sol a. Originally a few guys were in there but I was cool with it, I was killing the young and cinders and they were pling using the higher goblins so np. But then another couple plers moves in shortly after and wipes out all the gobs in the area I was in. Granted I'm not constantly pulling due to mana regen, but i was still there hunting legitimately. So I just camped, having wasted hours of time traveling for no reason. Not only that, but a 46 paladin is wiping bridge goblins that again provide no exp for him.

This is becoming discouraging. It seems the only options are sit on a group waiting list at the crowded zones. Trying to solo or even duo the other zones appropriate for my level (with moderate risk, unlike somewhere like CT) is nearly impossible, and out of the question entirely if it is peak hours. Why are way over leveled toons clearing mobs that give me exp? That one was the most frstrsting. At least in the other cases exp was being had by someone.

Kunark dungeons should find you some space and time(sans Kurns). I did Kaesora, Dalnir, Nurga, Droga, for years here and didn't ever see someone getting a power level.

They'll probably go do it now!

I understand I'm not in your shoes as a true lowbie/noobie, but at least there are people playing on the server.

Would you rather log into a server and have your pick of camps, but no one to group with/socialize with?

Or would you rather have a vibrant community and have to deal with other folks camping/killing the same stuff you intended to?

It's funny, but this "issue" could not possibly be any more "classic."

The first time we all logged onto EverQuest (unless you played Ultima Online before that) in 1999, you found out quickly that the environment and its spoils are shared.

The first time I logged in I learned that lesser mummies got trained from the Nektulos wizard portal

And that you couldn't find that corpse at night time

Because while you were unconscious your body would slide up against some dark as fuck tree

I can still hear the clicking of fire beetle trains murdering my brethren as slowly but surely I gave up on ever finding that corpse with the soiled guild robe

Ask around on forums, go explore!

WTB Bard PL tonight if anyone is up for it......

[Red_Psyphon]

You think you get to level in the same zones champions PL in?? Yer ass must be crazy!

That's because by the server rules only static spawns can be camped. 'Camping' areas with roamers is fine by gentleman's agreement, but if a couple of high level dicks come along you'll have no rules on your side.
