they would get absolutely murdered with that group set up in CT. dont wanna be debbie downer but for its level range CT is probably one of the toughest zones in the game. Virtually every mob in the zone is a Cleric, Chanter, or SK, and they can cast thru walls. Solid sustained dps is needed to get thru the cleric's chain casting heals.
we were doing cazic thule the other day with a 25 warrior, 26 enchanter, and 30 monk. also had a level 26 cleric for a bit, but we were handling it (albeit a little slowly) with just the first three.

These weapons you're mentioning, Langseax of the Wolves, Shiny Brass Halberd... people give away better. Don't waste your time on them.
It took me me no time at all to understand the original poster, maybe cause I feel like I have a lot in common with him. He doesn't care that he has a sub optimal group. He wants to earn items rather than have them handed to him. My guess is powerleveling isn't all that much fun to him either, he wants to do it the hard way. He probably doesn't enjoy grinding away at mobs just to get to the next level. Probably enjoys dungeon crawling rather than the most efficient way of gaining experience.

Artistically and culturally (lore wise) they were very different. As different as african and european. Kerra were vastly more interested than the bland moon cats.

And yes, the point is to do it all ourselves, we will probably trade for banded and bronze armor and stuff but mostly want to get our own gear.

this is why you survived, if you dont mind me asking what camp were you guys at? crocs can be duoed/soloed if you can get down there safe, also the temple area where the templar and diviner spawn are slightly less difficult. i was mainly referring to an all out dungeon crawl which i assume is what the OP is going for rather than pick a camp and grind away. crawling a dungeon and dealing with all the adds and other surprises is a whole 'nother ball game when compared to just clearing whatever camp and grinding away. some of my fondest p99 memories are from sola and lguk crawls, personally thats the way i prefer to do dungeons, its just only really possible when you have the zone to yourselves.

tbh we just hunkered down in the front courtyard and had the monk pull from the maze. it was nice having the zone line right there (even tho we only needed to use it a couple times)

still, its possible to do alright in there at that level range with the right tactics *shrugs*

maybe not worth it in a min/max sense, but its possible to do.

man, i spent so many hours in that spot during live, unfortunately ive only been able to xp in CT a few times on p99 only one of which did i actually get anything accomplished most ended in wipe. now, i just go there to farm, and as a lvl 60 rogue its still kinda challenging, not to the point of dying, but learning where to pull mobs to avoid out of LOS healers is a must if you dont want to spend 10 minutes killing lvl 20 mobs

Well it really was a beautiful dream. It really was. But now you've just jumped the shark. To bring in a group unused to the difficult EQ paradigm, use weaker, quirky classes, and then handicap yourself on equipment as well? Just seems naive. Any one of these can be fun, but all three together is clearly the kiss of death.

Good luck, but silver will get you gold that not half of them make it through level 30.

Haste for melee and crack for casters and he's already worth it as an AFK class. Everything else is gravy.
Sounds exciting for the fella.

More interesting making things go boom.
