Why is it so hard to get a group in Old Sebilis?

[rollin5k]

1.Make a tight knit clique of elitist prick min maxer friends
2.take them to old sebilis to get mad plats and loots
3.shit on anyone trying to find a pug especially another nice necro or other useless idiots
4.stack ur plats

Some very interesting replies.

I've tried to start my own group at the door on occasion, but it's always met with crickets despite everyone sitting there with the LFG tag on. Most of these replies confirm my suspicion that Sebilis is largely populated by guild/friend groups who view outsiders as basically trash (which I find unfortunate).

Oh, well, guess I know not to waste my time there anymore. Thanks for the insight, everyone. Much appreciated.

I'm guildless and most of my leveling friends have quit. I never have an issue finding a group in seb. I think it's your class, not some elite conspiracy agenda. I don't mean that as a general diss on necromancers, either. Just how the majority of eqers perceive them in group settings. It sucks cause I've seen some balling necros pulling off some neat utility tricks and great dps in groups.

I wrote earlier that I felt it was probably class-related, but I can see Spyders points having some merit to them.

I imagine it's probably a combination of everything mentioned and then just bad luck on OPs behalf.

Yeah everybody, just quit the class you like and roll another toon to 55 like Swish the cUcK recommends

You’ll be grouping in no time!

There just seems to be a lot less ppl in seb recently. I've been able to log in and get crypt solo pretty consistent even sometimes within prime time hours. Maybe people are more focused on raiding now? In any case as most people have mentioned necros are so powerful you don't really need a group and you could start a small group that could easily do c/e bc as a necro you can charm at c/e (if you were a super well geared lvl 60 im sure you could solo crypt really). Or just watch ssederix (sp) howling stones videos and fly to 60 solo in that zone

Watched a friend solo his necro 51-60 in a week in HS during kunark

Definitely some good xp there

It's ridiculously good once you get the hang of it. It gets boring and then you're a lvl 60 necro that nobody knows because you never grouped.

It is and always is and always has been hit or miss LFG in Seb. A big thing to consider is that moving around in Seb is difficult and people are lazy. That's where rogues shine, but there's often an over saturation of them when I'm there. Most groups can use 3 dps. Other roles are almost always a single slot in the group. If you're not needed to replace one of those single slots you're not getting invited. P99 mentality is 100% efficiency when you're dealing with experienced players.

Need to make a bloodpact with a cleric or enchanter. That will get you a group
