4 ?s: Raising crushing skill & pvp rules & how to find group & achievement points

[skelooth]

1) Can I improve my crushing skill by fighting grey mobs, or do I have to fight green and above to build it up?2) I was returning to an NPC when i couple of lower level PCs jumped me, I lost half my money, and they said LOL at me <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> what exactly are the pvp rules?? It all happened so fast I was like "[Removed for Content]". They took me down so fast I'm guessing they were twinked or something :3) How and when do I find a group? The LFG dialog box is always empty. I am in Faydark, a lvl 14 warden. So far I haven't had any reason to group, but I'd like to, because soloing is for the birds.4) As mentioned I am a warden... what should I put my Achievement points in? I put one into shape shifting (which is bad [Removed for Content]), but I don't know what to make a commitment in. Part of me wants to go with the strength path to help me when I need to solo. I'm scared if I go all wisdom I will die to easy, and if I put it all in stamina I won't have enough power to be a good warden.

<p>First suggestion Roll a NEW character on a NON PVP server. Don't even bother with the PvP in this game until you understand the game itself. IF you are truely inclined to play on a pvp server then read the pvp forums BEFORE you go back and play on that server.</p><p>1) yes you can improve all of your skills against "grey" mobs might be a bit slower but it's doable.</p><p>2) Read the PvP forums...</p><p>3) LFG tool, also appropriate level chatting. For example for you would be level 10-19 chat. Although most folks don't group alot till around 20ish, not to say you can't group just what i've seen on PvE servers.</p><p>4) I suggest go read the warden class forms to answer that question better. Although IF you are truely wanting to be on a PvP server read the pvp forums first then hit the class forums.</p>

I feel like an idiot, I didn't realize that it was a pvp server.... <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> I just took the least populated server (default choice)[Removed for Content] it <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

IMO if you don't like the PVP aspect re-roll. The non-pvp servers are a whole different game. Also, if you like the Warden then roll a neutral race and start in TD for the super fast leveling, great drop rates and awesome quest rewards.
