Best starting zone for Teek newb

Discussion in 'Time Locked Progression Servers' started by Espiritun, May 12, 2024.

    Human wizard usually start in Queynos but what about FV is that a Human Wizrd starting option for Teek. Whats the best for Teek launch for a Human Wiz looking for raid guild.

    Can also start in new :( Freeport area. Depends on where you want to level really. FP area does have more options.
  3. MMOer Augur

    Gfay an option? If not, Commons or catch a boat.

    Kunark? Run to FoB? Where ever the groups are.


    IMO, they should give everyone 1 FoB potion starting out.
  4. TheDohn Augur

    No-one starts in FV. It's not an option.

    I am going to deeply and greatly enjoy the forum posts from folks doing a GFay/Crushbone start this server. Slightly more enjoyment from that than the forum posts from folks who think they're going to persona to Cabalis and walk out of it as a non-lizard level 1.

    Qeynos is a great area. Best because it has awesome newbie dungeon Blackburrow! Ceushbone is for peons.

    I'll be an Erudite, so I'll be newbing in Toxxulia Forest and then...

    DBG turned off the level 70+ aggro skele spawns in the north end of GFay for pre-pop servers. They did not turn off the level 55, 35, or 25 aggro skele spawns in the north end of GFay, and they're _thick_ on the ground.

    Human Paladin

    kill a bunch of freeport guards because your a paladin and your faction is for you to kill the guards.

    West Freeport starting zone while KoS, thats a good starting for a newb. The guards if you level 125 they do insane amount damage if you level whatever they do insane amount of damage you never outgrow them. Unlike the other places, CLASSIC EQ places.
    CLASSIC vibes where it encourage the funkiest of funk faction you could have. Like good elf, your even good with the faction in Overthere, but dwarves not good, ogres not good. funky funk faction.
    Its your world faction.

    Not no participation trophy everyone is a winner no more factions where you pick and choose, aka current day EQ.

    Now on a serious note.
    Orge, Oggok, thats a good starting area.

    Lower Guk is gonna be poppping your nearby.
    Lavastorm is gonna be popping Sol A Sol B. Your nearby.

    If you in Gfay thats a LONG run.
    If your in calibis thats a LONG run
    If your in toxxula forest thats a LONG run

    Ogguk, be ogre.

    Are those the miners? Aren't they non-KOS on test now so no issue by the time Teek launches?

    freeport, origin to commons tunnel for trading
  13. TheDohn Augur

    I wasn't aware of the change on test, that's good. Still, I'd count it as a non-zero chance it'll be DPG'd before launch.

    You can walk out of West Cabilis into Warslik's Woods on a lvl 1 non-iksar by switching persona to non-iksar near the zoneout, then zone out and hug right and you can slip out into WW just outside the 2 guards' aggro range. I tested this several times on a high elf lvl 1. Now, getting to FoB from WW as a lvl 1 is an adventure requiring hugging the zone line, but doable. The FoB zoneout from East Cabilis is not an option.

    I've been looking at leveling up chanter to level 4 so she has invis before heading to FoB.

    FoB, GFay, Commons/Nro are probably the most populated in that order and probably the most conducive to a new player experience finding easy groups. Qeynos/Blackburrow area is usually decently populated being a "hub" for Qeynos/Halas/Erudin starts but typically requires you to venture to the eastern half of the world after about level 13-14.
  17. Fierce New Member

    Is there a some what safe path to get from Qeynos to Field of Bone as a level 1 enchanter?
  18. Bobbybick Only Banned Twice

    Aside from using the alternate persona feature? No. That's one of furthest runs you can make.

    Can you conceivably do it? Absolutely, but you have to take some really long roundabout paths to get there and ultimately at that point starting in Freeport and making the run is significantly easier (while still dangeous)

    Change it up imo.

    If you usually start in gfay day 1 then try a dif race/zone, they are all viable for the low levels.

    just stay out of misty thicket

    I went there once and some dirty halfling bum tried to sell me some asmag weed
