i know, super novel lol.

There are free, or almost free (eg. $2/month VPN + pirate bay) ways, so I think we all just feel bad for you that you wasted your money.

But hey at least you can always resell the discs, and then you're just out the cost of shipping and the time you spent buying/selling it.

Blackburrow doesn’t always have a ton of activity, I might recommend heading to crushbone instead!

Blackburrow gets plenty of activity for a starting character. Like you probably won't find six-man groups, but you'll find duos and trios, and that's all you need for Blackburrow.

But personally for a Halfling I wouldn't recommend Blackburrow or Crushbone, because they're both too far. Misty Thicket is a great starting zone, and then you've got East/West Commonlands (where you can usually get buffed in the EC Tunnel). Once that zone maxes out both Lavastorm and Oasis are within running distance, or you can catch a port out of WC to pretty much wherever.

Just trying to brace you for the future, halfling friend--

As a halfling cleric, you'll receive countless requests for SoW as many/most will assume you're actually a druid.

That minor drawback aside, you'll definitely enjoy the 5% exp bonus and also the (racial) ability to *sneak* as a halfling is pretty awesome. Sneaking will let you vend with people that don't like you, complete quests when your faction stinks, etc. Sneak is sweet!

Isn't sow a halfling racial ability?

I find people tend to assume I'm a Cleric and ask me for rezzes.

Halflings are amazing, though. Racial Sneak lets you shop, quest and bank anywhere, even if the vendor is max KOS to you, which they won't be, because everyone except trolls and iksar love Halflings. I would definitely recommend staying in Misty, then moving on to Befallen, then maybe Oasis, then Guk. Faydwer is for loser races like elves.

Just waiting on my copy of titanium to arrive (actually found one to buy online), and I'll be rolling up a cleric. Probably will head to BB pretty early (lvl 3-4) to try to find some groups, unless anyone has a better suggestion. hope to see you all in game, and i'm hoping that the lower level population is still pretty decent.

Welcome to Project 1999 and Norrath!
