Message from actual new player

Once again a LNC lvl47 speaking.

When do you people realize that you have no clue? You are speaking out of hearsay at best, or based on nothing at worst.

Soloing is damn effective at and before level 13 and I see no hint of this changing anytime soon. Soloing is efficient to this point, and quite likely much beyond too, 'till mid-20's even. It's not like new players are thrown under the "group or die" bus as soon as they log in the first time.

I myself truly hope SE addresses the community 'issue' soon but even they can't cure ignorance.

Speaking as someone with a secondary character that has no other classes leveled, as well as someone with MRD sitting pretty at rank 15, even with 4 other combat classes 30+.

Soloing is not even close to 'effective' for lower levels. I was almost killed by a level 3 sheep from full health because I was level 2 with no class skills other than Trunksplitter. It took me an entire leve to go from level 4 to level 4 with 3/4s of my way to level 5. (Which by the way, is only 850 experience to get to.)

I myself truly hope SE addresses the community issues as well, but even they can't cure blind attack trolls.

Edit : I also find it rather ironic that someone with your signature pic would lash out at an argument based on the poster's class level...
