So I'm fresh level 70 and joining the skirmish one called dwarf something so I can get gear...
So far I get kicked 100% of the time for no reason at all... how am I suppose to get gear if no one let me play?
I'm a level 70 paladin I maybe a new player to neverwinter but not to mmos...
Also no guilds will let me join as I don't have 2k+ gear score and i don't have 100s diamonds to pay them to let me join...
Seems no one wants new people to play this and everyone is a bunch of A hats...
Been a week of being vote kicked constantly and it's making me want to quit

This game has an elitism problem. Many people don't work as a team and have a hard time clearing content, so they assume that if your IL isn't x then you can't do this. They are wrong, but there are many of them.
and any random group can usually take down the big guy.
ill also warn you even if your doing great and doing the bubble, and the healer is not hasting you so the bubble does not stay up, people still blame the paladin and kick them.
o yeah, if you pick up green items then groups will probably kick you too.
good luck, and i hope you have some fun.

Also @ fluffy people who throw around the word elitist usually have bad gear, have there character specced all goofy, and when they win are carried by one of those "elitist" players who simply realize mmo 's have simple math behind them. You need X dps within Y seconds or you fail. No amount of skill can make up lack of gear if you gear is below a certain level.
Since im not talking abput skill but kore about proper feat builds and power synergies across classes, I suggest you do some research on buffing and debuffing party composition. As long as a toon has proper resistance ignore the rest of the stats can be boosted well beyond item level by another well built toon in party, regardless of item level. Makes it pretty easy to beat anything at the suggested item level if you get the party composition right. Remember, you are playing a game based on parties.
People kick low IL's for one reason - they want to get gold. Yes it's selfish, but so is taking a completely undergeared character into a group event where they add nothing & instead detract from the overall effort.
Yes, IL does not cover understanding your class/build & how it should interact with others, but if a player understands the game well enough to understand their class & build then they will also have the right gear choices & in such cases, a set of T1 gear etc waiting for them when they reach 70.

Now, to get geared up, i recommand you do as people said HE. There is tons of people farming them, so it shouldn't be a problem. Get the seals then get T1 gear. Focuss on your boons as well. Do not go to the new skirmishes as long as you are not properly geared. People do want gold either for achievement or items reward. Pally are not even nessessary in those, so even a high lev pally is more of a burden than a blessing. Not the same for t1 and t2 tough haha. But people will not kick you once properly geared, even as pally. But as a very low level character, i can understand they do.
One thing for sure, do not hesitate to ask question, we can help you. The good things about underdark is now there is many ways to get seals, diamonds etc and getting geared.
So in response to you OP, I would suggest making a group beforehand. It could be with guild members or just randoms. But if you make a group beforehand then you are not gonna get kicked. Also, you really should at least get your T1 Alliance gear (blue) before attempting to do the new skirms, you don't have to but it will make it easier for you and most importantly easier for your group.

Also, crying because a bubble pally doesn't babysit you 100% of the time means the player crying has a weak toon too since any decently geared player should be able to survive at least a few attacks. Also, kiicking a bubble pally because the bubble isn't up is silly since the bubble isn't permenant (except super high levels) plus sometimes the haste priest doesn't get casting haste only works if you get the pally with it too. L0L
As for being kicked, it's only happened twice for butthurt reasons. Hell, we actually defeated Epic Spider and I got kicked right after (I didn't know that was possible) because the teammates were butthurt they were running ahead and dying. of course, we'd never make it through without the bubble.
A lot of good advcie in this thread, though. Don't worry about the scum. Just play. You'll find some good groups and a guild eventually.
Bubble pally is a touchy subject. Many players loathe them but also desperately need them to do anything. Haha. I think the new underdark stuff is designed that the pally isn't the most important - DPS is. I've never been kicked out of them though.
Have fun.
They specialise in helping new players through content to get their gear etc. I would suggest maybe contact them and I`m sure they would be pleased to let your know if they have places spare. I was in that Guild a couple of days after it started and they are a great group of people.
I purely left to play with existing friends on my friend list and to progress and make new friends.

Once you have your blue gear then go for the T2 runs and perhaps ask in protectors, looking for group chat that you need help from a good team that can pull you through. We have taken many low geared players through dungeons using a 4 man guild team and the low geared player to help them out.
So go ahead and ask in protectors, tell ppl you are struggling for gear, ask for help through dungeons, the community may surprise you as there are many good ppl playing this game.
