a doubt that arises between me dark elf, barbarian or ogre, which would you recommend?

New to EQ? Orge War is the most straight forward, best racially paired set up. Those starting stats give you lots of room for error when youre learning to punch large rats with your sword

Well, I am going with a doubt.

Begun to play an ogre warrior, and level 1 have killed me while hunting, I have also drowned and lost a sword and a vest I started, as I can continue or should I do? because now I can not kill any more lizard

For a warrior, statistically as of right now Ogres are the best starting out. For a player new to EQ, I'd avoid making a barbarian as you will be stuck in everfrost/qeynos area for ages and its not a fun place to be. I would suggest staying away from Dark Elf as a race for warrior.

I'd suggest staying away from warrior entirely for a new player. You will be expected to tank with the aggro problems of not having decent weapons and expected to know zones well enough to pull them often, as well as having no ways to avoid combat or travel around.

It'll be a tough slog for sure. I'd recommend picking rogue for melee as you can sneak around to scout zones you don't know, won't get expected to pull, and can do well even without fancy gear.

That said, if your heart is set on warrior, just keep at it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

In a situation like this you can delete your character and just sart over. Since you're still level 1.
Dieing and drowning are all part of the experience but it's less painful to do them on a level 1 vs a level 60.
