Restarting-Flat Broke

[acid_reflux]

If you don't mind, Would you give me your opinion on what would be the best course for me to take with a new character. Given that I am without resources to outfit myself, and assuming that I'll need to solo to level up, what is in high need that has solo-ability? Or do i just roll a necro and forget about grouping?

[tekniq]

mage.

[acid_reflux]

Thanks boss. Made me an inky mage named Convenient. I'll give it a go.

[Snagglepuss]

/Agree with mage.

I rolled a mage with no money or help from friends. I wore my newb robe until I was level 50. It's great to be independent of gear. Hardest thing will be saving up / spending time to farm focus items.

I have never played a necro, but others say it's a great class for the gear independent person starting over.

[acid_reflux]

is there a particular race that has any noob gear quests or a particular noob zone where i can farm some mob type for lowball vendor cash? the dark elf noob zone is making my face hurt trying to see past my hands.

[acid_reflux]

ok cool. well i just made a gnome... screwed up and gave my noob letter to the wrong gm and she ate it. now i gots to delete it and get a new noob letter for my pimp man-dress.

[acid_reflux]

so i got my man-dress. jumped off the ledge from the gnome library and faceplanted to death. i must have 1 hitpoint lol.

[acid_reflux]

yep, retrieved my corpse. ran out to the waterfall. clicked on the priest of discord and clicked begging. he crushed my face. 2 deaths and 0 exp so far. ill make it out to steamfont sometime today.

[Grumble]

I start hunting wisps at 8 or 9 (depending on wis or int caster) for money.

[webrunner5]

Maybe you need to start a Ogre. Sounds just up your alley.

[acid_reflux]

lol well i guess it smooths out over time as i recall. just got to get some venom sacks or something to get some spell cash.

[acid_reflux]

a couple high level dudes rolled through and gave old Bungle a rack of buffs. the duration of the damage shield got me from 2 to 4 in like 2 minutes.. that was awesome. So i got enough money for 1 maybe 2 spells. what pet do i get? earth or wind or what?

Generally speaking stick with Fire and, occasionally, Earth.

[Slave]

Fire for soloing and Wind for grouping. Earth can be useful too. Water only after it obtains backstabbing ability at 54th.

There are a very small handful of items that will help you level. Just concentrate on the focus item quests such as Torch of Alna.

Just gather the quest items, one by one. Wath for Gornit... oh the adventures you shall have!

[acid_reflux]

ok cool got the fire one thanks yall.

[HeallunRumblebelly]

Well it's a bit late to the party, but if you can suffer through for a little bit, rogues are very, very cheap to gear well on the whole.

[acid_reflux]

i tried a rogue a few months ago. never could get consistent groups. always trying to solo but pretty much hit a wall at level 11. dark blues were kicking my ass so i ditched it.

This is true. Your broke and my broke are very different I suppose.
