Okay, so what with RoM having taken a huge turn at the difference between competitive possibilities starting at level 55 I've noticed a bit of neglect to the lower-level players running around in dire need of help with instances up to level 50. This isn't something I really enjoy seeing, but as a result I figured I'd put my two cents in here and now.

Early-game running, while extremely tedious in my honest opinion (when you're actually doing the quests at appropriate level) is a lot of fun for me when it comes to helping others out. So, in an effort to both give myself something to do besides pounding out my own quests and help out the less-experienced population on Reni (or in any case, less-leveled) I'm putting in my name as someone who'd gladly group for... just about anything I can up to level 50. Here's a list of things I would be particularly able to do, including (but of course not limited to) those that in my extreme haste to get to 50+ I neglected to do earlier on.

Cavern of Trials instance
Barren Caves instance
Forsaken Abbey instance
Bloody Gallery instance
Crafty Bernok quest
Crazy Kiosade quest
Guardians of the Ore quest
Necropolis of Mirrors instance
Angry Jekarce quest (which I have yet to attune for)
Mystic Altar instance (which I have yet to attune for)
Witch Queen Lemislive quest (which I have yet to attune for)
Pasper's Shrine instance
Ice Dwarven Kingdom Lv 35 instance (which I have yet to attune for)
Ice Dwarven Kingdom Lv 50 instance (which I have yet to attune for)
Kalin Shrine instance
Cyclops' Stronghold instance
Treasure Trove instance (which I have yet to attune for)

The list isn't specific towards these, mind you but these are the biggest challenges per appropriate level that usually need some manner of grouping. So, for any of these (even the ones I can't really do yet since I need to attune for those because they're also very much fun) feel free to shoot me a whisper ingame. Usually if I'm on, I'm on Entropyknight, but every now and then I jump on my mage, Luminesce just for kicks.

In the spirit of making Reni the best community that Runes of Magic has ever seen - or WILL ever see - feel free to let me know if I can help! (>^.^)>

-EK

P.S.: Also if anyone else is feeling that same generosity as I'm trying to portray here, by all means pop your name in saying you'd be able to help too

; I'm not too sure I can do this all on my own.

That is great idea! Make best server even better.

I can think of PS being easy to access and bellow L50, probably nice to add to the list.

My guild did HOS run on secondaries and alts, I missed it 2 weeks ago. Instead of quick run, they did it the way it was intended, and that was very interesting and educational according to guildies. I'll make sure not to miss next run like that.

IMHO, would be cool to get group of players that would use alts and play old instances as intended.

Good luck!

Many thanks RoMage. I'd forgotten Pasper's (>0.o)>... and IDK 35/50 too.

There are a few other instances that are not run much, such as Sathkur or Windmill. No point in running them, though - there are no quests for them.

There are also couple places that are very difficult to do at level, such as Goblin village in Aslan. NOM is the worst abuser there IMO, since people are sent there at L28 and the entrance mobs are 37 elites. Good luck getting them down without a high level coming along.

OTOH, I think Aslan Valley is covered pretty much due to goblin games attracting large number of L50+ toons. A lowbie needing help there is likely to be able to get some help if he is capable of asking nicely.

Oh, and people who have more than 3 classes are clinically insane.

Same, I usually try to help any low lvl person that needs help with those type of quests. The last couple times i have seen groups for Forsaken Abbey and Bloody Gallery they only wanted people around the level of the guest to do it and don't just want someone to run them. I am happy to see that people still want to try and do instances instead of someone running, but I also understand the difficulty of getting a group for it and will gladly run anyone who needs it.

Ya I would help as well. I it is hard to do because low level players don't come to the forums unless they chance upon it trying to solve a problem like I did

.

I try asking in low level zones if anyone needs help but they don't respond lol. You have to speak directly too em for them to talk to you

I would also like to help lower players out as long as they don't bug me to power level them all the time... I remember how difficult it was starting off as a new player and trying to find someone who actually was capable of helping out in those low instances. For the longest time I tried to solo them because i couldnt find anyone and had to learn some of the instances by myself.. If you see me on and I'm not busy doing something give me a shout..

I'm a low level in Reni I go under Morgharath there and I'm a R/S I'd be glad if anyone could help me. Especially since Forsaken abbey and BG runs will be coming soon.

Howdy, Rehd here, i spend more time helping lowbies then i do any thing else lol. I have no problems helping others. Though i am getting tired of the, " Well since your gunna help FA, can you make it an honor party?" My reply, "Not a chance." So long as u dont ask for gold (always broke) powerlvling, or honor parties, i will almost always help.
