No point in my dissimulating: I'm both new to this game, not (as I see things) a very good gamer, and not as patient as I need to be to succeed with this game . . . can't do much about my abilities at this point in my life, but I am working on the patience thing. So, my question is whether somewhere I might find recommended Group levels for specific quests. I find myself in places where I'm so completely over-matched that it's hard to imagine ever being able to tackle that one. Anyhow, ballpark recommendations would be much appreciated . . . like, say, 6 or higher for this quest, 8 or higher for this other. I understand this request--and any information that speaks to it--might be seen as 'spoiling' the game's intent. So, I'm ready to hear that. But, I'm also ready to hear where I might find what I'm after.   

What you might want to do is wait 15 days for WM2 and 3.0 when they'll have "story mode" for a combat-lite type of playthrough. That would allow you to handle whatever you encounter, maybe even learn some tactics to allow future playthoughs to bump up the difficulty.

That sounds like exactly what I should do . . . I'm losing count of my restarts . . . and that ain't all I'm losing.
