23 is good for pond in MM.

As ppl have said, talk to others and try to make your own group. or send tells to ppl already grouped and see if they have room for you / get you when someone leaves. You can usually solo some stuff while you are waiting.

Your animation is still pretty powerful at this level. Killing lower lvl mobs fast rather than killing high lvl mobs slow is better exp.

No, the Pond area is pretty easy to do at 20 if you are not the Tank.

I hate to say it but the reason is there are too many people in those zones now to even get a group. KC is the same problem. Unless you get in at 4 o'clock in the morning it ain't happening without a lot of luck.

You have to be willing to travel to where the people are or send messages out to individuals to try and get them to come to you. There aren't always going to be enough/the right kind of people to form a successful group in Upper Guk, but there are usually people nearby in Oasis or East Commons. Message them and ask if they would be interested in forming a group with you.

I am nearly out of level 40 and am looking down the long road to 60. I remember on live I spent all my hours in Sebilis. How does that zone look on this server? is it overpop like KC / Mistmoore / CoM (havnt gone to CoM yet)

Yes, Seb is usually packed, but also a good place to go to get a high level group [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

Other high level areas are the Hole (you usually have to put together a group yourself) and HS.

I wish Chardok was a viable place to group but it's usually aoe'd down.

Thanks, that's pretty much what I guessed

Just look for a priest, necro, or mage and go duo. Charm kill some mobs and the levels will fly. Or if you can't, just solo.

The Hole is amazing experience. Yes, it is out of the way but if you can get a group there to grind, the xp is better than all other in game. Except if you are doing mass pulls or what ever in Seb

As bad is having a group when there's 40+ people trying to XP and you come across 3-4 other pullers all running around looking for a respawn. It's times like that you consider switching servers [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Because of the exp bonus on red, groups are more accepting of new players to fill spots. This is second hand info, but I've been told that on blue if you aren't twinked out or if your class/race has a large xp penalty, groups are likely to reject you. I've never seen this happen on red.

And in my own experience after leveling several characters, I've rarely been unable to find or start a low or mid level group. (now finding a port to get to your group is a different story [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] )
