New(ish) Player

I played 10 years ago and only got to level 40 with a Druid and Ranger.

I noticed that population is pretty low for lower levels.

So... I guess I’m either boxing ( need to learn ) or just solo.

I miss playing with groups and having a purpose on the team.

Let’s say I grind to 50/60.... which is more needed druids or rangers?

Or should I go cleric?

First off, welcome back. 2nd try and get your old account back.

Go to here,https://help.daybreakgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/217481518-How-do-I-recover-my-account-
go through the auto things and if that doesn't work open a ticket and provide as much info as you can. It is worth getting the account back for the veteran rewards.

3rd. What server are you playing on?

All of the live servers are old, 19 years, so 99.9% of the population is at or near max level. So you will most likely solo/molo from 1-100. You might get lucky and find someone power leveling an alt and group with them for a time, but other wise the low levels are empty. You can try and find a guild that helps new and returning players, but most of the time that is them tossing you buffs / equipment / plat...etc

If you are an all access member (paid subscription) then you might consider one of the TLP servers to play on. https://www.everquest.com/news/eq-what-is-a-progression-server

The newest one is Coirnav and is currently in Kunark and will go through all the expansions until it catches up to live. You can only have 1 account logged in per computer to this server, no boxing without an additional computer

Agnarr is the 2nd newest one and Legacy of Ykesha launched this week which added Frogloks as a playable race, so there will be groups from 1-65 for awhile. Agnarr only goes up to LDON expansion and then it no longer unlocks any more expansions. You can only have 1 account logged in per computer to this server, no boxing without an additional computer

There are other TLP servers I don't know much about them (Phinigel / Lockjaw / Ragefire)


Check out https://almarsguides.com/eq/ he has a bunch of guides including one on boxing.


Hope that helps

Yeah. Maybe I need to go to the locked servers.

I miss the endless trains in blackburrow.

Whew... boxing sounds complicated.
Is there Merc outside of the tutorial to use that is comparable to boxing?

I have no idea how to play 2 characters at the same time
