'Fun Leveling' paths - EQ leveling for someone used to WoW

[August]

Hi all,

This thread is about my wife. We used to play WoW together in Vanilla->Wotlk, and we've dabbled in other MMOs - EQ2, GW2, Rift (shortly) and some other semi MMOs like D3.

Everquest, you might say, is my 'white whale' for gaming with her. After a lull in gaming she recently decided that she would give it a try. And good news! She is enjoying it!

Now comes where I ask for some help. I know the traditional leveling paths. If I was just leveling up an alt I'd be in Oasis til 20, then Unrest, then MM, solb, guk, into kunark, etc.

However, my wife gets bored of the same place. We went to oasis at 11 and now at 15 she is tired of killing crocodiles and orcs. I told her we'd find a new place to go tonight.

My question is - has anybody tried to do a leveling path with the most variety? I'm looking to only be somewhere for 1-2 levels at a time, and while I know the 'vague level' of most dungeons/zones, I'd like to gradually increase the difficulty/levels of the zones - for instance, I know @ 15 there are orcs/crocs, unrest yard/first floor, hhp orcs, but I'm not really sure where the correct place to 'start' versus the correct place to 'end' is. I'm also not opposed to 'revisiting' zones if there is a drastic change - I.e. uguk has a wide range of camps that are lower and 'higher' - etc.

Any pointers? Tips? I checked out the leveling guide on the wiki but it basically summarizes the vague knowledge I have. Really looking for people who have done this kind of thing, or even if you just know an awesome camp that's only applicable to a small level range - I'm game.

Thanks!

Tomtee/Scrumph (and my wife is Pizzatime)

Duos can do a lot of fun stuff that solos cant.

around mid-teens to 20s, LOIO is really fun xp, as is Upper Guk. SK Aviak treefort is always fun but tapers off around 20 iirc. SolA is always a good time, but youll need more people.

Kunark dungeons are where it's at if you can get a semi-regular group together in the 20s-30s and even beyond. Some of my favorite times in EQ were crawling mid-level Kunark dungeons with buddies.

I've always been a huge fan of CT, and can't believe it's a ghost town on this server.

Have you been to CT here? It's a nightmare. Crazy pathing and mobs healing through walls. I think I tried to bring a group there once a few years ago and it ended fairly quickly to say the least

Yes, it was the name of her banker alt in WoW. We had an alt guild that Pizzatime was the leader of called.. you guessed it...

< Let's Kick Shell >

When she rolled her char here it was literally the only name that wasn't taken that she usually plays under.

The Paw is one of my favorite zones. Good xp mod, mobs aren't too tough, whip drops are good cash to pet classes. I spent a ton of time there and different parts of the zone are good all the way from 25ish with a partner to 40s. Lake Rathe aviaks can be done high teens/early 20s.

This is exactly what I'm looking for, thank you.
