Where are the groups???

[DJrmb]

I know this same post prolly comes around quite often but hey it is real people playing this game who have free-will to hunt where they choose so old post may be irrelevant now right? lol

Anyways my roommate and I have a Shammy SK duo and we are looking for some zones with lots of people to group with. Sure we could just duo but we want to socialize heh. so we are trying to find out where does everyone go for the teens and 20's? we are both 15 atm.

sup broham. 14-22 Unrest, you can stay in unrest all the way to 40 however if you have a full group then from 22-40 Mistmore is your home. Come to red and experience some classic EQ with xp bonus and pvp.

If this doesnt give ya a chub then maybe red isnt for you but the leveling plan I layed out is the same on blue :) Have fun.

People been tellin me groups happen all the time. I don't see them though ...have not seen any of the staff either since being here. Besides maybe Nilbog popping in to say "you're bugged" then leaving.

[theaetatus]

Oasis, Unrest, Kurn's usually have some groups going around your level.

[Ephirith]

Biggest group spots are as follows:

Unrest 14-20~
Mistmoore 22-38
Solb 38-48
City of Mist 40-50~

And then KC, seb etc

[DJrmb]

cool thanks for all the suggestions!

Literally this. If you try to deviate from this you'll just end up duoing.

ummmmm
highkeep 22-36 nothin beats it and if u evil you can kill guards once your 25ish 5plat pet kill everytime.

[rabuliz]

I'm surprised Lower Guk isn't on the list

[Coriolis]

There's usually action in Oasis 14-20 as well. Although Unrest is better xp I believe.

[godbox]

lguk been kinda dead. since actually new ppl have a hard time getting down to groups already formed and moving camp to go get someone can be rough

[rabuliz]

But it's oh so fun. Kaesora can be fun too with the right folks.

The guards are truely great xp and I'm pretty sure highkeep faction is useless but I could be wrong.

I spent last night killing them..all highkeep faction
VVV

[godbox]

guards named "a guard" do FP faction i beileve so dont kill those.

[Aroith]

Does Highkeep faction effect rogues on their epic? Because final turn in is in highpass.

[godbox]

dont all rogues have epic before there high enough to lvl in highkeep tho?

[Aroith]

Lol very true but I would like to mq them out later. So don't want to ruin that. Anyone know if killing highkeep guards destroys that luxury?

[Rumgrin]

So what about Lake of Ill Omen? That used to be the top grouping grounds for lvls 15-25+
That zone was always packed...

[shadevice]

I did lake of ill omen sarnark fort from 18 to 28 - Got my 2 earrings of stations and bracer of hidden there. So xp and end game loots, can you beat that?

Nope.

+1 this for best reply,

Thanks sires.

People been tellin me groups happen all the time. I don't see them though
Take some initiative man, do a /who all [level range] and send tells to people around your level. Server (still, even with the population surge) isn't full enough that you can go to any zone with an lfg tag on and get a group at will like back in the day. Lotta friendly people on this server and I almost always get a receptive response to cold tells for exp grouping at any level.

As for OP: SK and Shammy in the late teens is already the foundation for the most amazing Upper Guk group. Get some deeps and hit scryer camp. I realized the other day that every single one of my characters that is over level 20 hit level 20 at that camp.

[shadevice]

^ exactly...people complain but the /who command is there for a reason.

Example.

You are a level 16 cleric

/who 14 22 warrior all
/who 14 22 paladin all
/who 14 22 shadowknight all
/who 14 22 monk all

Once you have your tank. Fill in other classes from there with the same method.

If you aren't a cleric. Then start by finding a healing type via the same method. etc..You get it I'm sure by now...if not..well I cannot help you any further.

send tells, heya wanna group at so and so location

If you don't like putting in the effort, don't expect getting results.

[Valmari]

Yeah people are neglecting upper guk its a good spot for at least one 15-20's group and another 20-30's group

Allot of the newbs go to unrest, and MM and allot of the derps PL there, there can be good groups had but the ZEM in MM is not realy worth it, the ZEM in unrest is pretty solid though with low hp mobs and easy pulls all over if you can avoid the trains ;p

Oasis is very chill

Nejana is also another overlooked but nice place for 15+

HpH is not to bad, but kinda slower then oasis.

[godbox]

There's usually some folks in LOIO, but typically they are soloing/duoing. Its decent xp, but usually too out of the way to get full groups put together.

Not sure why Guk is not so popular... I feel like the higher lvls still grinding away at crocs in Oasis should just get together and hit up UGuk sometimes. Much better xp if you get a nice scryer group. And some loot.

This looks fucking awesome not gonna lie. But i have a really hard time believing stuff like this actually occurs on R99. If it did i'd join up in a heartbeat.

Its actually a good place to send tells to people in if your doing the / all thing, either they just didnt wanna build a group themselves or their too afk, but i've grabbed allot of people from oasis for guk when doing it myself. All outdoor zones are usually good places to nab peole from, especially if your in that 30+ level range and have a wiz/druid willing to help set up the group with you.
