One thing that needs to be said right away, if you plan on soloing your character, plan on buying another game. Lineage II’s gameplay is extremely centered around the group dynamic, so much so that after the first few levels and newbie quests, grouping is absolutely essential in order to kill enough monsters to pay the increasingly high costs of weapons and equipment. Unfortunately this isn’t explained in any in-game form until you hit about level ten and even then it’s not made explicitly clear that you need to basically group up or have your game experience effectively die.
