I don't think you understand which side of the debate Castle is on...

Correct. Don't read the fake news, kids. Get primary sources. Vive le queste experience!

They could easily turn on exp quest for low level characters, and keep the exp quest off for anyone over 15th level.

I just started a green and its annoying that I can't get levels though quests, its bad enough people are constantly killing the guards so if I get in to trouble I'm dead. be nice if they allow low level quests and no xp off the gate and lift guards so they stop killing them.

Agreed, coming back as a newb on green is really frustrating. For classes that rely on spells that cost 4p a pop at level 8 you'd usually be able to farm belts/bone chips and get enough money to help cover those. Now that market is completely gone for a month. I guess it's my fault for starting the same time Kunark came out.

You proved my point further, none of these really have anything for sub level 10.

Also aside from the money not getting XP from quests under level 10 is asinine.

The game starts at level 60.

That's because trying to earn plat at low levels is a fool's errand. This is how EQ is designed to work.

If you plot how much plat a level 5/10/15/20/etc. character can make per hour on a chart, what you'll notice is that it plots a curve. At higher levels you can make orders of magnitude more plat than you can at lower levels.

Low level people wanting to earn plat are typically jealous of twinks: they want all the fancy toys they see others have. But those others leveled a character up to 50 so they could farm those twink items; they're not something starting characters are supposed to have.

Ask anyone who played on Green/Teal at launch: the correct way to level up is to go kill as many small rats (or whatever) as you can, using the cloth tunic and rusty sword you start with. The incorrect way is to try and farm plat so you can buy gear you don't need to level ... at a tiny fraction of the rate you'll be able to once you level.

this happened to me as well but there is a zone right there so when you dont see a guard keep running.
