It is. My monk is kind of stuck now, at level 11. Any of the places he can go to get xp are incredibly dangerous. He can easily die, and in-fact after several attempts at each place and dying despite being buffed and as careful as possible, I am unable to progress without a group. No lower level quests are available and every higher level quest is completely unsoloable.Toman Ironarm wrote:I've seen some of the areas that are avaialble (kalem, rats, and the....whatever they are in the mountain north of town) but just because they're good spots to hunt, doesn't mean it's advisable or feasible most of the time. I don't find groups too often, so it's hard to hunt anywhere at all. Kalem is virtual suicide, the rats fair little better, and the things in the mountain don't even bear mentioning. Suffice it to say, I want to hunt, but finding the group to do so is sometimes difficult.
Normally Ill log in, look for a group for a short while and then log on an alt who is lower level and can solo (or find a lower level group).
It will be interesting to see how other classes stack up in comparison of difficulty. I know my cleric, so far, can do quests with far more ease then my monk. I attribute this mainly to the fact that just by donning some basic armor and using a basic spell buff, his AC at level 1 is much better then the AC of my monk at level 11. Most things can only hit him on a natural 20.
I think at level 6 he might be able to solo the kalem dungeon, although he might have to be careful. I think my monk couldn't do that till 8 or 9.
