Started back up.. few questions

[wrxBRAH]

1) For a level 35 solo druid, is it better to kill hill giants in Rathe mountains or just do Lguk entrance?

2) Is everything still camped 24/7 ? (stuff like ancient croc, frenzy etc)

3) Is there an active guild that has a lot of people leveling and lfg in the evenings? My playtime will vary roughly from 6pm-2am PST and I'm the definition of a casual gamer.

4) Was there a character wipe for P99 red server? I could've sworn I had a character or two on there and now I dont. Might also be because they're on another account and I forgot all the login info.. lol... figured I'd ask anyway.
