Question: Is there anyway to rotate the camera in third person without character turning? Right now all i can do is hold right click and it turns my character as well as the camera. Other games have had it where if you hold left click or middle mouse or something you can rotate the camera while character maintains current direction.

The answer is sort of. It is a seperate camera mode. You can cycle through all the camera modes by hitting F9. Each individual camera can be bound to whatever key, so I have the two free cameras bouind to z and x. You can control these with the numpad, and again you can rebind the controls.

I would suggest you have the two free cameras and the first person view hotkeyed (my first person is F). You wouldn't believe how nice all of these options are, and once you get used to setting up your free cameras you won't go without them.

It's not really the slowness of the first 4 levels that bothers me, but how everything has a 90% chance to kill me. I've made it a habit to always consider enemy mobs before I attack them, and I always attack the 'even fight' ones, but I still randomly deal 0 damage for, like, 85% of my attacks. All of my 4 characters died from the exact way, just an enemy mob getting a random stroke of luck, and interrupting all of spells/all my attacks dealing 0 damage. Is it always gonna be like this for any class?

It is hard on a lot of casters, since you aren't supposed to get hit but have no tank option. Fight blue cons, and depending on your starting area you can get buffs from friendly strangers. EQ leveling is all about the social aspect, so don't be afraid to just start groups killing whatever. Even if it is less xp in the end, grouping will keep you way safer and be more enjoyable in the long run.
