trying desperately to get in this game

[kaylar]

I tried EQ when it 1st came out and I hated it. the mobs are so hard and the downtime
is so long. I love the lore and the character abilities and watch other people play and it looks so fun. I created a Halfling Druid and got myself to level 8 but I am still using the bronze hammer I bought when I first started. (Someone set me up with 10Plat when I started or I dont think I would have lasted this long.) I tried to create a Gnome Enchanter cause I thought with some Mana regen I would become more appealing.. I can kill anything, I dont know if I am just in the wrong place or what. Anybody got any advice to keep my interest?
