Actually, by "True newbie" I meant at levels 1-15 or so. About the point
when you start getting enough loot between trips back to town (And you're
far enough away from town) That you destroy coppers to save the weight and
keep you light on your feet.

Twinked or not, ALL my characters save every copper they can get -- until
they run out of strength to carry it. And I haven't yet started throwing
silvers away. That still feels like a sacrilege.

As a twink, I group with whoever I can find to group with. I don't look
at equipment. Shoot, I don't know whether most of it is "good or bad"
even. What I look at is first, personality. SOmeone I can get along
with. and second, level range. Can I group with them. Occasionally,
we'll be specifically looking for a tank-type, or a healer-type. Or
a Snarer. But that's about it :)
