Adventuring with variety of classes and races is a very fantasy experience - something well known in Everquest, but so is the complexity of secret strength and a diversity in experience within the companions. When you come to Everquest, don't reject others because they are too powerful for your experience, and don't reject them because they are weak and unable to contribute. That is just as integral to a great story and adventure than anything else. Don't just play the game - play for the story and adventure that you are experiencing.

You sir, are a fine and excellent hobbit. May your hobbit hole always be stuffed!

OMG

Getting pictures of... Noooooo


actually:

Frodo never experienced anything.
He was just sitting in front of his hole, smoking pot, calling pizza delivery all day long and hallucinated.

Frodo was always keen to pretend to read by a certain roadside willow. He knew that eventually, things would work themselves out. Happenstance brought that silly old wizard along. And lust.

If you are an avid reader, casual reader, or obsessive reader of Fantasy Fiction you would agree that in many many instances of more experienced (higher level) characters setting out on quests and adventures with new and inexperienced

Lets use Lord of the Rings as an example - a well known and widely read series.

If we were to translate the main characters of this series to Everquest Frodo and his three Hobbit companions are about level 1 or 2. Of course as they go along they may grow in their abilities etc, but who comes to their aid on many occasions? Aragorn in Bree - a 45(ish) warrior, Arwen just before they reach Rivendel, Gandalf and the actual fellowship of the ring through Moria and thereafter.

Avid reader??? seems more like a movie watcher, Glorfindel carried Frodo to the river not Arwen , she was Peter Jackson's expansion of her role and only did this in the movies.

Seemingly as they were all grouped together each time I doubt the hobbits received any xp until the fellowship broke apart. It was more like a high level just buffing them and escorting them across a few zones.

Aragorn has lots of sneaking and tracking abilities, I think he's a ranger with his spells disabled

Plus:

Within his newbeness Frodo almost trained a whole bunch of cutthroat derwishes in the prancing pony in Bree.
Frodo taunted (put on the ring) the mobs (Ringwraiths) on Weathertop.
Frodo tried to attack (lifting his sword / no "c" con check on the Ringwraiths) at Ford of Bruinen.

Beeing Aragorn or Gandalf bringing some Hobbits to Rivendell or even farer must be like run as an Iksar Necro from Cabilis to Rivervale on lvl 1 trying to do sightseeing in all towns of Norrath
