captainspauldin, that was a very lucid, well thought out statement, which has made me look on this situation from an entirely new and altogether more enlightened point of view. I really appreciate your input into these matters, and hope that you continue illuminating the rest of us with this kind of deep insight, which we might have missed because we obviously do not possess critical thinking skills on your level.
pwned.

Can you solo a blue?

I agree buffs are fairly short. But if a lvl 50 druid gives you regen and dmg shield that gives you about 15 mins in which you can leg it around EC hitting on all the yellow and light-red cons and getting like half a yellow bubble a kill. It really goes very quickly.

On the grouping front, bear in mind that a) far fewer people group pre-lvl 10, because of how easy it is to solo using the method above, b) this changes dramatically after level 10 as more and more people go lfg, and c) in my experience levelling to 30 so far, tanks are one of the rarest classes to find, and hence I am always looking for wars/sks/pals for my pickup groups.

Good luck!

I think my frustration will be shared by many at the low levels. Even while in EC, many times buffs are few and far between. I can always find shaman buffs but rarely is there a cleric or even druid available to offer HP /DS. Wizard DS is even rarer.

Any buffs are of course appreciated, but you have a relatively short time span on most. When you go back to the tunnel to try for buffs, the previous people have left.

Finding an additional person is typically not a challenge, but with only a single group member there is not much point in grouping. On the other hand, it is quite difficult to solo as a warrior. Not with only being able to bind wound to 50% anyways.


I guess my point is, that there are just not a lot of low level players running around most days. Perhaps it is the uprisings across the world, but the past week has been especially thin.

honestly, playing a warrior requires dedication and the willingness to lead groups since you are most of the time the puller and, of course, the maintank.

since the original poster failed to group for three days at level 7 he is advised to reroll a more laid back class, preferably a soloing class like magician or necro

to each their own! rolling a warrior was the wrong decission

Buffs certainly are nice when you are lower level but you can level without them. I picked Qeynos as my starting city for my warrior and stuck it out there until around 16 or so. Let me tell you, that shit was a lot of soloing and there is hardly ever anyone there giving out buffs.

It certainly was a pain but it's doable. Instead of spending your time running around looking for buffs, go kill blues while you try and start a group or even just find 2-3 people to run with.

Not to be mean but if someone can't make it past lvl 7 in East Commonlands on this server then convincing him to play again is just going to waste his time.

This is obviously not the game for him, just wait till his group wipes in Guk and breaks up leaving his corpse down there.

There are so many more frustrating things then getting to level 7 in this game...

Aside: The forum pic under your name is hilarious.

We all have moments, broski - like those people who delete their characters in drunken rages during late-night play.

OP: If you are going to be on this evening/tonight send me a PM with your character name. Ill get you a bit of gear and a PL for an hour or so. That should get you from 7 to 15 no problem. After level 15 you should be more desired as a tank.

Man, I should have asked for help on the forums when I was a newbie to the server =P

Like 4 hour CR's in fear and every guild going in to assist wipes and blames you for rushing them. Lmao. Maybe that's fun and not really frustrating:-)
