I must admit I took one look at the rats in Nek and almost ran ! Luckily their aggro range is so small you can just move past them. It's strange at first, but you get used to it...just have to remember that normal mobs aren't like that.
Correct, no matter how high your adventure level, the instances will scale so they're all still nasty and red. I was deliberately aiming for that 'Ohhhh @#$%!!' moment for everyone starting the instances. (And to be honest I was expecting more premature flames about 'omg you have to be an adventurer' than I actually got, heh.) The graphics settings suggestions above are good, and the castle shouldn't be too laggy so hopefully you can tweak around the graphics settings a bit without suffering.
For those who are wondering how a tradeskill respec affects the quests, here is the answer:
If you respec your tradeskill, quests 4 on will be removed from your quest journal. You'll keep your title, cloak, and earring (although of course you won't be able to wear the cloak any more, nor the earring till you're 80 again) and when you reach 80 in your new profession you can start straight off from the archetype instance quests Neeta gives. Since the earring is lore you wouldn't get a second one but you'll get your new cloak and title and finish the quests again as normal. And if you respec for some bizarre reason in the middle of the quest series you'll be able to finish whatever step you're on but won't be given the next until you're 80 once again.
