So I have a bit of a dilemma and am needing some more knowledge people to chime in here to make a decision. I have been duo boxing it on Rizlona so far and am in the mid 30s right now. Basically due to an injury on my back and not being able to work I'm having to tighten down and justify expenses a bit more. My question is what kind of viability is it for two characters as the expansions come out through the years (I had quit back around GoD era and have a high 60s enchanter on the live server). Is it going to be something that as more is opened up on Rizlona I will hit a wall where I can't complete content. I've noticed for the most part there really isn't much grouping here since most people are bringing in their bots of 6. If I had the money and could justify it I probably would myself. Ultimately what I would love to do is go through the content that I have missed over the years and get a feel for a large number of the zones I have never seen yet. Way I'm looking at it right now is I have a couple of options. Continue down path of Rizlona with just the two and maybe if I get lucky enough on drops (doubtful given I don't have the firepower to compete with the 6 man teams) to get a krono here and there to add in a member, drop back to live server and just focus on my 60s char and power level a team up to continue on through, or switch over to test server since there at least all 6 accounts would be "Gold" status and drop the two subscriptions?

Test server, test buff a group using /testbuff to 25 and have fun. Lot of people there to help you out. Shoot me a private message with your toons and I can send you a ton of stuff to get you started.
Two box is viable, but if you're wanting to experience content you missed in Era, you want a guild. This provides you with people to group with and talk to and if you want to raid and aren't fielding your own raid, you'll need a guild anyway. Rizlona's crazy box structure aside, playing with others is really what the TLP is about.
The benefit of a TLP is that everyone is doing things in the SAME era, since you can't go farther. But the downside is there's also a pace that is set by the natural progression of the server. If that pace doesn't match what you want then you'll either get bored or fall behind. In both cases you're better off just going through the content on Live at your own pace (since you're not playing with others anyway).
