However, my ideal situation would be duo-ing/small group play and my only concern with Teal was that it's not going to have enough population outside the popular areas to support that. Perhaps I'll just have to take the initiative somewhere like EC or Qeynos Hills to get some people together and then travel somewhere else.

Cheers for your feedback.
I play on Teal and it isn't just main high experience zones that are camped. Please note that this is just my experience so far. Also, I have no toons near the Qeynos area or on Odus.

With Crushbone and Unrest at such high density, people are grouped all over Faydwer. I headed over to Antonia at 12 because of lack of camps.
Faydwer:
  • All orc camps in GFay
  • Goblin/Bandit camps in BBM
  • Orc/Bandit camps in LFay
  • Kobold and Minotaur camps in Steamfont
  • Have seen groups in Cauldron as well.

Of course Befallen and Guk are camped to the extreme. However, I have witnessed groups everywhere.
Antonica
  • Dervs in NRo, SRo, Oasis, WC
  • Crocs in Oasis
  • Couple Groups at Orc Hwy
  • Both Gnolls and Orcs in Highpass
  • Orc Camps in EC, WC, SRo
  • Tons of people in Highkeep (I am not high enough to know exactly what groups are where)
  • Duos/Trios in EK
  • Duos/Trios in Gorge
  • Lavastorm
  • Najena

When classic areas are perfect for 700-800 people. You are going to have to go off the beaten path to find places uncamped when numbers are over 1000. As I am leveling, I see a lot less people soloing camps on Teal than I did on Green. I still see druids/bards/encs/necros/mages soloing in open areas but not so much at actual camps of mobs.

Please remember, this is just my experience so far. I generally only have time to play during primetime and on weekends. My highest character is currently a level 17 Druid and have leveled exclusively through grouping. I generally always play in a duo with my husband. We have had no problems obtaining groups.
