If I were to start here on Red, all on my own, what is the best solo class for EQ PVP? Never really done it. I don't want to twink, I don't seek others' pixels, I am really just interested in maybe playing again and don't know how different things would be if I were totally on my own here.

druid, ench, wiz, sham

druid = all around good even in pvp
ench = well u played blue, same thing, but needs more skill in pvp here than evena semi-decent chanter in pve
wiz = ez in pvp, glass cannon, fustrating class
sham = kinda like druid, but not as easy to gank with

Sounds like you just want to play the game with a little pvp on the side, go sham, druid, ench, shm if you like all around toughness/survivability

yeah, mage is good too, but slows down in the 30+ range quite a bit due to no quads/etc...

Roll a monk. Get stuck at lvl 8 for 4 hours, break monitor. Reroll druid or wizard.

if youre preparing to go past 51 id roll wiz, necro, enchanter

good luck, and please report back from all the desperate & fat eq creeps trying to get into your pants by offering up pixels, these always make me smile

Go shaman. Effective solo similar to a druid, good at low level pvp, better in groups post 50.

Also refer to this for leveling your shaman. Can go to 60 easily on your own without having to cyber anyone for pixel package:

For obvious reasons roll up ogre or troll.

Necro pretty nice low level because bone chips are easy to get and petnat level 1..

Druid 1-20 is like the worst experience in the game almost. For me.

Shaman or Necro or Enchy for sure.

Don't do it. People too mad at each other here to care that you are a girl and you won't get as much attention as you are used to getting on blue then you will quit. Save yourself.

Def. Don't be a mage. No crowd control...super limited, least favorate high level experience in the game.

Bard is super easy to lvl up.

this.

Bard, Druid, or Wizard are 3 easy classes. Shamans easy to level to 60 once you get epic.

If you are coming from blue you got 10-1 odds you will quit before 50 and about 100-1 you will quit after 55+ if you don't side with one of the axis powers.

Wait for new teams sever before joining this one. Everybody already had epic gear here and you will never compete. Will PM you the link.

Wizard, druid. Druid easiest to level. Bard slows down once you hit the 50s though. Then you'll prob want to group with ppl

Take out hybrids and melees and anything left is viable solo and in PVP to 60 (melees/hybrids very effective PVP but very gear dependent and hard to solo lvl up).

Druid probably most versatile...good at solo'ing, solid at PVP and you get ports to move around. Low population means ports are hard to find you can make really good cash doing them for people.

Avoid paladin/warrior/rogue/sk unless you are twinking

Avoid druid if you want to do end game raiding

All other classes are fine.

Yeah, that is a good point. Druids pay for their versatility in the end game.

Clearly ranger is ideal.

Tank? Check
Healer? Check
Crowd Control? Check
DPS? Check, check, check!

wizard = killed first in pvp

druid = worthless in pve and pretty lousy in pvp ( See andis )

mage = easy to level , faster then most, great to farm , killed second in pvp

necro = long casting times, pretty lousy in pvp , pretty easy to level in pve

conclusion? play daoc on genesis ( origins had to change name for legal reasons )

hundreds of ppl to group with , every dungeon packed, frontier packed , open raids daily. Endless pvp and funs to be had.

make a cleric, they can solo undead and people always want a cleric in their group.

.

Thats why i was nearly unkillable in pvp during kunark to pop, while i could kill almost every class.

Bards could kill me, after they drained me. Clerics i could not kill till i had my vt mace.

Shamans were hard, but even there my best kill was vs zcul during velious in an 1vs1.

Druids are very good in pvp (depends on player and gear).

Sure, i cant prove this, because that was long long ago, maybe old guildmates like nixus or thakisis do remember, but with an decent player you could do alot vs almost every class and cant really be killed if you dont want.

If you have zero gear then necro or ench are the easiest to level/farm with.

My experience with Hateraid is he attacked while I wasn't ready with a DoT and then ran away. I dispelled it. About 5 minutes later he came in range and I nuked him once and then he gated and didn't come back.

I heard all you have to do is make a female character and never say that you're a dude. Player doesn't necessarily have to be female.
