Hello! I am an old player who is looking to get back into EQ2. Unfortunately, I don't have the gold pass, and I won't be getting it unless I put many more hours into this game. I enjoy playing niche classes, but one of the problems with those is that they are hard to solo level. I was wondering if there were any guilds outside of progression servers that still did leveling for people like me and new players.
Yes, sorry. I am not very familiar with the proper terms. I used to play with some friends, but they don't play anymore. We said "leveling," but I think grouping is the right term. I am not on a server yet. I want to find a guild and join that server with a new character. I can get up to level 30 solo, but after that, I want to group up to get to 120.
Honestly, Maj'Dul or AB probably has better guilds for grouping than Skyfire. Casual Concept on Skyfire did do lots of 120 grouping and occasionally when I asked, they would get a group together at my level and we would go to some dungeon. Of course, it took quite a while to get the group together, decide on the zone, and then get there. My current guild doesn't do a lot of grouping, but I always have a lonely character that's looking for friends. From 30-120, if you have access to the chat channels, use the LFG channel to help get a group together or find a group. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if people do a lot of grouping at lower levels. You will likely have more success grouping on TLE.
I was thinking about playing on Maj'Dul. My current for fun character is on there and it seems popular. Thank you for the information. I thankfully have the old silver pass, so I think I can use the chat channels? Or is that free? Either way, I can use the LFG function and that might help. Unfortunately, I'm not making much money right now, so I am staying away from the subscriptions, otherwise I would totally join the TLE server. Thank you! I appreciate the response. And if you have a character on Maj'Dul that's lonely, let me know. I'd be happy to get up to your level and group up.
The LFG feature is mostly dead. (/LFG) No one uses it. The LFG chat is very much alive. I might end up making a lonely Maj'Dul character now.
