Hey everyone!

I heard about the generous xp bonus being offered due to our server EQ Mac getting shut down and figured I would give it a chance over here. I've been spending the last hour or so reading through your forums and I'm considering giving PVP a shot for a change. Thanks for the post runlevelzero it gave me some insight on what I should expect at least haha.

From what I see on the main page the population is roughly 1k players vs. 150 players normal vs. pvp servers. Is that about the population total I'd expect to see playing here? I was looking forward to rolling as a melee of some kind, perhaps of the tank variety, but it looks like that might be a rough path to take unless I start up with some other fresh faces to level with.

I don't have a ton of pvp experience on this game, so any pointers or guidance on playing melee as a starting character here would be awesome! Is the struggle I'll face leveling up worth it in the end etc etc?

Appreciate any and all advice ahead of time, thanks folks :cool:

I just started seriously playing a few days ago, first thing I learned is that if you have see invis...keep it up at all times.

So far had nothing but a great time here so far, amazing community.

Finally making a character.. I am leaning towards SK, never really played that class and I'm looking for something new.

Is Iksar AC bonus and natural regen worth taking? Or maybe Ogre for frontal stun immunity?

Just remember, Iksar SK = -80% Exp (iirc)
