No boxing -- will there be people to group with?

[Tupakk]

Most of the people that responded don't twink at all unless it's fashionquest thinking.

While this is generally good advice, I think some responders here are twinking their characters out and then saying soloing is easy.

A great guild to get in with on blue server is <Auld Sang Lyne> (might have mis-spelt it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]), they're committed to level the classic way, without twinking (so you'd fit right in).

An alternative if you've ever considered EQ pvp is the red server. Most people starting there recently are completely new as well, and you'll see a lot of bronze armor and pre-planar gear scraped together (as opposed to Velious twinks on blue who don't want to group sometimes).

lol Slipped in another another "Try red" post? You guys are desperate aren't you?

Pm me your name OP. I may be able to help you out with some starter donations.

Seems Familiar, oh wait.

I can understand the need to stop multiboxing but this is seriously a load of crap. I'm trying to play the game with my wife and they cant respond. We were using my phone so her computer could connect using a different IP but something sucked up all of our data in an instant so now not only can we not play together for the rest of the month but now I am out my mobile internet. This is a serious flaw in this server. And dont sit there and l give me that "It's a free service" crap because I am a donator and was planning on donating monthly. No I don't expect special treatment for it, I just want people to know I'm not a freeloader complaining about something free. I understand the people in charge are volunteering but this is a serious flaw in how they run things.

People out level 1-12 pretty quickly, so some of the starter zones can feel empty sometimes (like people have pointed out, Qeynos/Halas/Odus in particular). But after level 10 or so its pretty much guaranteed you can find group mates in just about every zone. While its true the server is top heavy, there are TONS of alts being played in every level range. Just fight through to level 11 and head out to the Oasis and your grouping woe's will be gone forever.

Side note - Even though less populated, Qeynos area is where the pro's still level up

Didn't mean to offend anyone, haven't experienced the community yet, didn't realize 1000 people would result in largely populated zones, especially early on given the depth of this game.

I actually don't prefer boxing, just was wondering how people were getting along without it. Sounds as though it's a non issue. Thanks for the responses!

Original EQ was actually quite small. Most zones can only handle 2 or 3 groups. That means with only 500 ish players out and about it still makes the world feel very populated. Even middle of nowhere zones will have a few people there.
