If you have plat you can level a new toon to 5 or 6 on about 24 Crushbone Belts in Kaladim (hand them in to Canloe Nusback (?) in the Warrior Guild) for 12-24 plat, but if you don't have plat you're SOL... you didn't mention class and race (and locale) so if you do that peeps might have more specific advice for you... once you hit 4-5 you can do orc hill in GFaydark and gather belts free but by that time they don't have much bang for the buck.

Regards,
Mg

Are you sure you're not seeing people that are twinked, or buffed by a high level? That can make a world of a difference. Also, what class/race combo are you right now?

well i was asking if there was a specific class race that makes it easier, especially for soloing. and No, im fresh to the server so i have no platinum =(

People getting to level 9 in an hour are getting power leveled by high level players.

Level 5 in 9 hours seems about right for classic EQ. That's assuming you didn't spend any time talking to NPCs, exploring, getting lost, getting killed etc.

The fastest way to level is with a group of people of similar level to you. Stick with them. If somebody leaves the group be proactive and find a replacement. If you outl-evel the area take charge and tell them what area you should all move to together.

It's amazing how much you can accomplish in the game if you stick with a group.

Others will mention solo classes. But it's not actually the quickest, it just means you never have to be sitting around looking for group when there isn't one available.

If that's your preference then mage, and druid are probably the easiest classes to start with. I would say necro too but you sound like you're new to the game. If so, the faction issues might make it a stiff learning curve.

mage or necro is fastest for soloing unless they fix the pet experience penalty

When I started my main it took me almost as long to do level 1-5 as it did to go from 10-20. When you start with nothing and don't know anyone on the server, life can be tough. Especially when you're in halas and that damn Vengeful Soloist sneaks up and ganks you when you finally have that polar bear cub down to 10% health.
