As Batel said, look for players that may have a small kin going for leveling or just find some players in the area you are at and tag along on quest with them. Usually players find the same people along the lines of leveling their characters in the same zones enough that they end up friends and continue to help each other out. Just take some time to find the right mix you seek in your gaming time.
