How to get started in Battlegrounds
To access the Battlegrounds, click on your EQII menu button! It will be there listed up at the top!
You can join as a full group, part of a full group, or all by yourself.
A further tip from Frizznik: Have your friendly neighborhood tradeskiller make you some of the special crafted Battlegrounds armor with the toughness stat. It will greatly increase your survivability.
