in salisbury you can start at the slave camp on the east side of the zone and then from there u can kill tomb raiders / wind mephits going west

Yes that was the plan for me, I just thought there was a camp that dropped armor and weapons more, some ghost roman camp or something like that. I probably am not remembering correctly. Thanks!

the first important thing for you will be a crafted lvl20 weapon with dd proc ^^

Haha, yeah well level 20 I need plate armor suit, probably need new weapon like you mentioned and shield, and heaven and earth along with it. I'll see what I can do when I get there, first I'll need to get to level 20.

remember that u r trainer will give u new vest every 5 lvls until lvl 20-25 (not sure which is the last lvl)

from lvl 10 to 25

Doh! I completely forgot about that. Guess I missed out on the level ten vest, will have to remember that at level fifteen. Have to go to the trainer in Camelot for that I recall now... Ah. Silly mistake by me! It has been to long.

P.S. I'd welcome suggestions for specs while leveling. Right now I am crush/shield, with chants to level and weapon close to level, with leftovers being dumped into shield for now (11/8/3 I think respectively or something like that). No, I didn't AT chants, probably get tisked tisked for that but so be it. I'm a Paladin and I want to level with my chants! Does anyone recommend higher shield than weapon, or even perhaps 2hand instead of shield?

For be honest, i leveled 2x paladin, it was by far easier to level with chant autotrain and full shield/crush, you dont lose endo with the level 8 style, and u block everythiung that make you chain a lot. with chants at low level i had a lot of down time because the grey/green endu isnt worth it

I agree, ATed my pally till 40 and that was realy easy and fast with soloing. even with low heal chant you always have full hp/endu/power with full crush/shield, and no down time. soloed most of the time becouse that was faster than grouping for me. but after 40 its realy painful to solo unless it's not a focus pet class. so training chant at 40 and using respec stones before 44 and 48 is the fastest way to 50 for pally i think.

It's funny but true. Don't let Ori dishearten your character though, do what makes you happy and keep going

As a paladin and a 'new join' you're going to need a lot of things. Send me(names down below)in game some time for weapons / procs / pots or w/e, or just look for me with /advice
Dayien / Tkayo / Soma / Whipits / Qosmic

Thanks for the suggestions guys, and I will look you up in game sometime. Is it possible to /xp off on Uthgard? I was thinking I might do that when I get to level 19 before going to 20 and build up some extra funds so I can fund my plate armor.

yes you can and i would highly advise against it

Why? Wouldn't it make sense to be able to properly arm my Paladin before advancing on?

So you intend to stop xp at 19 to farm lvl... 16 to 19 mobs ? to make money ?
Remove xp off, up 20+, farm this same mobs, even if green. U will gain same money per mob but you will kill them faster.

By the way, if u lack of money, just buy a studded leather set. Material cost for a lvl 20 full set is low. And since trainer give u hauberk, u need only 5 part -> cost is even lower.
Since mobs are weak, a plate hauberk + other part studedd + your base AF buff is clearly enough to tank mobs.

Since i have a tailorer and a weaponcrafter, i xp like this untill lvl 30 with my merc, and damage of mobs were always very low.

Well no, I'd probably fight green/blue at that level to, just to fund enough for plate at level 20. Seems to me that your saying I can forgo the plate at 20 for the most part and get cheaper studded though which I can look into.

I'm a bit of a drunkard but it's all good. Find me in a drunk moment(if i'm online basically) - remind me who you are from the forums ... or even that I made this post.... -; and i'll be happy to help you with gear bro. Don't xp off. Ever. Unless you somehow are not capped out in Thid... which is very hard to do if you go when you ding 48

So many mids... must kill MOAR!!!!!!!!!
I have so much leftover crafted ****** in my vault - i'm basically just looking for soemone to take it! I can't seem to bring myself to destory proc'd things that I leveled with. So much sentimental value
