Hi there everyone. I'm a veteran of EQ, but a newb on boxing. I've just looked at the 5 beginner videos and read a little on Almar's Guides. I think I'd prefer Redguide's setup with Kissassist over the other one. My questions are:
1. Is it better to box 6 characters and start up 5 more EQ accounts? or do 3 accounts and use Mercs?
2. If I want to focus on one main character in my main EQ account, does it matter if the other 2 (or 5) are free accounts? Or do most boxers pay for 3 (or 6) full All Access Accounts?
3. When just starting out, is it ok to play around with the KissAssist settings "as you go", or should I really devote a bunch of time to really learning it before I start the group at Level 1? At what level do you need to have it down to adventure effectively? I ask because "moloing" you can get into the 70's without a lot of mental work with just a merc. Is that same with a boxed group? Or will the point come earlier where you "need to know what your doing". This assumes not doing raids/difficult encounters I'm sure, and just focus on grinding mobs for exp.
Thanks for anyone that takes the time to read this!
PS, I just saw as I read this that I joined Redguides back in 2004!
