Pair complementary roles, share gathering expectations and agree how much quest text everyone wants to read. A stable group gains more from rhythm than from perfect composition.
Keep the plan flexible
Quest density, competition, class power and server conditions change the best route. Use a plan as a compass: if an area stalls, move to an equivalent zone, join another player or switch activities.
Fellowship rule of thumb
Share useful discoveries without turning every route into a race. Mark major story spoilers, invite nearby players when an objective is scarce, and remember that a launch is a social event as much as a progression problem.
What may change
Experience values, dungeon efficiency, class tuning and travel details can change before or after launch. Re-check this page’s source links and the live comments before committing to a rigid schedule.
