This is a Somewhat Helpful Leveling Guide for the Casual Druid, and it's going to take lots of time to complete. I'm updating it after every level. Right now, I am level 2. Deal with it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

A different suggestion. If your druid starts in Greater Fay, run the mail from Felwithe to Kelethin for about 4-5 plat. The gold and experience given is incorrect on P1999 - the value of both given are for the large mail bag delivery from Kelethin to Freeport, rather than the lesser value from old retail. You can score up to 11 gold from one trip, although the average will be about 7.
Use your cash to buy full Tattered small leather armor (assuming wood elf) from Kaladim from either the Warrior's guild merchant or the paladin's guild merchant. Total cost is something like 1.5 plat for all armor slots covered? Something like that. Picking up a merchant sold 1h blunt Staff is cheap, along with a wooden small round shield. If you want to save on cash, use a cracked staff instead. You can also buy low weight Medicine Bags in Kaladim for .4 weight for an 8 slot Large item bag. These are great for the low strength Wood Elf. Level from that point to level 5 in front of Kaladim beating the hell out of every skeleton, beetle, and spider that moves. Yes, this will be boring. But yes, you will collect 5 to 6 or more stacks of bone chips. The very moment you hit level 5, calmly walk into Kaladim for the Paladin's guild and do the bone chip turn in quest. It will take a bit over 5 stacks to go from level 5 to level 8 to pick up your key skill, Meditate. From there you can beat up Orc centurions in Crushbone for level 10 or abuse the 4 skeleton spawns by the Druid ring in Butcherblock mountains for level 10 or 11. From that point it's like falling off a log to level the druid. You honestly can't screw it up. Between Flame Lick, your damage shield thorns spell cast on yourself, and then in a few levels, Stinging Swarm, you have 3 ticks of constant damage happening on an enemy while you swing with a staff and heal back up to full after clearing a camp using your Tree Illusion to reach 19 by only half trying. | ||

i'm pretty sure a full set of merchant leather armor is around 15-20pp for the set, not 1.5pp hehe. the biggest parts (tunic, leggings...) are about 2pp each.
vendor bought generic scimitar http://wiki.project1999.com/Scimitar will cost around 6pp, same for 1HB or 2HB alternatives. medicine bags are 1pp each, you can indeed buy them in south kaladim, at redfist's metal (although the vendor carries only 2 or so at a times). this is an awesome guide Shrub! I hope the single new p99 player we'll get in 2018 will read it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Level 2-4
Levels 2-4 Step 1: put on your hater shades, because there's gonna be naysayers, apparently. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Congratulations, now that you've blocked out all the haters, it's time to continue leveling your cute lil' druid butt! Run from Greater Faydark to Butcherblock Mountains, and slay any goblin whelps or decaying skellingtons you may see on the way. When you reach the newbie yard out in front of Kaladim, if it is empty, you can spend a half a level or even stay here until level 3, killing whelps and goblins. Play it safe to avoid a corpse run. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] After you are level 2.5 or even 3, it's time to go wait on the boat, because we are poor and even though you could probably beg a druid to come and port you, a whisper from a level 2 wood elf druid asking for a port from Butcherblock Mountains to West Commonlands is basic as heck and will give any druid a big rubbery one. Go and sit at the docks and wait for the boat to Freeport, I suggest having your smart phone nearby IRL to distract yourself, less you go insane. Ahhh, glorious Freeport! The first thing to do here is to run to East Commons and beg for a buff. Any HP buff will do, the main thing is we really do not want to die here and have another long boat ride. Once you have garnished yourself with some actual hit points, zone back into West Freeport and begin slaying every Orc Pawn, decaying skellington, and fire beetle in sight! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Die, die, die like the motherless gnoll you are! Loot. Every. Thing. The rusty weapons sell for gold, or if you're going to take up blacksmithing, save them to be sharpened later for skilling up blacksmithing. Even the fire beetle legs will sell for a few silver, and we're an aspiring young druid with an empty pocket. In particular, SAVE:
Stockpile the fire beetle eyes. We need one for ourself for our very first Damage over Time spell, Flame Lick. The rest we are going to make a gotdamn killing off of when we return home to Faydwer, which is devoid of any and all fire beetles. $$$ Before long, you should be level 3! Continue killing everything in sight, and making trips to the vendor appropriately. I enjoy dealing with the Freeport Monk guild, they are friendly there, give good prices for my items, and more importantly: sell backpacks. Once you have the funds, buy a backpack and eventually you want to have three. Once we have looted (4) orc pawn picks, it's time to visit our friend Guard Valon. He is in West Commonlands at the toll booth. Don't give him any money though, he's a phony. On your way to West Commons, stop by the E.C. tunnel and if you are lucky, a friendly ogre will give you the QuickFeets. Some call it Spirit of Wolf, but that is basic. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Look at this lazy turd. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Wooooooooooooooooooooo Give Guard Valon 4 of your orc pawn picks, he will reward you with about 1 gold because he is on a soldier's stipend and is severely underpaid; more importantly, though, he'll give you about 12 percent experience (at level 3). Return to West Freeport and continue slaying more pawns, beetles, and skellingtons. As you get further into level 3, keep an eye on your experience bar. If you are looting enough orc pawn picks to ding into level 4, then do the math, 4 picks = about 12 percent exp. Wait until you are at least level 4, or if you have 4 or 8 picks, wait until you are either 75% into the level or 88% into the level (respectively). I was only able to put together another 4 orc pawn picks before I was 93% into my level. Once you have enough pawn picks to definitely ding into 4, or you are actually level 4, it's time to run to North Freeport and do some banking. EMPTY YOUR ENTIRE INVENTORY INCLUDING COIN, except for the pawn picks if you have any to turn in. Once you have done this, kiss the banker goodbye cuz you're about to take a free Translocate to Bind. Side note, if you have been vendoring as aggressively as me, you'll have around 6-10pp, and can easily afford our next set of spells. Once you have emptied your inventory, make one last run to West Commonlands. Hand in any orc pawn picks and ding into 4, and then insult Guard Valon's mother. He'll reply appropriately, but don't worry, you won't lose any experience and this is the first and last time we need to employ this type of porting. [You must be logged in to view images.

Really like it dude. A promising entry in the annals of p99's strangely specific, questionably useful class guides.
Of course starting with the glorious DE SK guide by EBK Bluuhd (a personal hero of mine) And I notice you are referring to skellertangs by the proper name skellington listed in my own guide, playing a Dwarf Rogue a tribute to EBK Bluuhd I am really happy someone is picking up the torch of this historic and very important project, you're doing a great job! Shit made me laugh. | ||

Levels 4-5
Levels 4 - 5 Now that we are back in our home sweet home, it's time to head to the bank and re-equip all our items, withdraw all our shiny platty plats, and most importantly, grab them thar boner chips!! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] From the bank, do a hop, a skip, and a jump right on over to the Druid guild. Let's pay Mr. Heartwood Master a visit and max our 1 Handed Slashing. If you have not done so yet, pick up any old 1hs, if it is a rusty weapon, sharpen it. We want our 1HS maxed for that glorious day when our future raiding guild neckbeards bless upon us our epics! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Next on the list? BUY OUR LEVEL 5 SPELLS! HELL YEAH BOBBY! Don't forget to buy Gate, especially. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] LOL did you see that water! What a joker, water is so funny sometimes. Find Uleen Laughingwater, and buy your level 5 spells. Camouflage, Cure Poison, Cure Disease, Gate, Burst of Fire, Whirling Wind, Ward Summoned, Harmony, Grasping Roots. If you have not done so, purchase any level 1 spells, too. I needed Flame Lick and Endure Fire. Once you have purchased your level 5 spells, it's time to run to Kalimdor. You might start your journey from the ever popular pod life. You might also say, but Fatdog, those aren't places in EverQuest, but you'd be wrong. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] This guy's either lost, or a big fan of the christian nu-metal band Payable on Death, a popular 90's angsty teen band, and one of my personal favorites, but don't be confused. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Once you've reached Kalimdor, head to the Paladin guild. We're looking for Gunlok Jure, the demanding little dwarf. Start turning in your bone chips, I managed to collect enough to *almost* ding me to level 6! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Did someone say ding? Oh, because that was MY DING, you dirty motherless gnoll. Scribe those newspells.jpg, and Gate the hell outta this place to begin the next step of our GRAND ADVENTURE.

I’m writing it as I level, and my Druid is an alt so I’m looking at completing it when he dings 50. I am playing very casually these days so it probably won’t be finished for 6 months, but got damn it I am going to see it through.
