Hmm..now what?

Howdy,

Practically brand new EQ player here. I played about 14 years ago for like 5 hours or so and gave up. Didn't like the pace of play compared to the games I was used to.

Anyhow, I recently wanted to give EQ another shot now that I have more patience and wanted an old school feel. Needless to say, P1999 is fantastic. I like it a lot.

I started a shaman and got him to 14, but I grew super bored with BB and killing bandits in Karana. So I tried to run to a more popular area, which involved running through Highpass.

From reading on the wiki, it seemed like it was hairy in the entrance but that once you were able to get past, it would open up. I thought SoW would save me.

Boy, I was wrong. I made it only to the Mucktail spawn before getting iced. I've put my corpse in some precarious positions before, but there is literally zero chance I'll be able to recover that.

So, what do I now? Do I just beg random high levels to help me until the corpse decays? I was enjoying that character, ha!
