So I came over here and brought a friend of mine that I've played with for 10 years.

I've tried to get him into a few other MMOs as well, after he'd quit EQ2 after 7 years.

He likes this one.. but he's getting road blocked by solo duties that are just absolutely bloody wrecking his noskill arse.

Right now, he's on the quest that has the siren summoning dead men on the beach.. level 42 main scenario. Can't beat it. He's level 44. Doesn't have the situational awareness to keep an eye on the bubbles, not stand in stuff, *and* keep an eye on his own health.

And the quests just get worse from here.

I just finished one in a basement for the MSQ in Ishgard.. 5 mobs. Caster, healer, three melee. If I wasn't on a healer I would have gotten *wrecked* and you can't single them off. You can't use a chocobo.


How the hell are people that aren't awesome or overgeared supposed to handle this? He outright left ESO over the guild quests, I couldn't help with those, and he's over in Europe. I'd just do these things FOR him if I could, but I can't.

Halp?
