so as of recent events ( raiding being a flustercluck on blue) I have considered red.

I was wondering what would be a needed class for groups/raiding on red? I am considering bard or shaman right now. Basically a class that can be a useful part of a group and also contend in teh pvpz.

I would love to raid again, and not be in a retarded line, or part of some bullshit beaurocratic process to get shit done in this game.

also im looking for friends on red because all my rl friends are BLUEBIE FUCKS! muahaha.

ok maybe its not a few questions but I cant edit the title at this point soooo....

Don't come here unless you want to fight other players. It's a PVP server, for killing other players.

If you're coming here for end game raid content only, stay on blue. The zerg is big enough.

shaman isn't in that high demand pve wise but pvp they are great currently. bard probably in high demand for both. i'd play what you enjoy playing though as you'll find a spot somewhere.

there are no lines here. if you want something find out when it spawns and come pvp for it.

Enchanter, Bard, Shaman, Wizard, all relatively high demand, self sufficient for farming, and can contend in the pvps.

Don't go full melee on your first character unless you're doing a blue/red plat transfer.

I hear you get free epics if you join the zerg and play a cleric or rogue too... :rolleyes:

Play what you enjoy, or what you think you'd enjoy fighting other players as. You will be fighting other players. This is P99 RED.

well I played on sullon back in the day, and played eq2 pretty competitively on the pvp server there with the top guild on the server. So im sure Ill be able to hang pvp wise.

I cant deny that a part of why I want to come to red is because the population is smaller though, I just want as much of a chance to progress as anyone else. It seems you get stymied at every turn on blue.

I also honestly miss PKing people. Having the power to make someone mad enough to quit playing is pretty sweet, not gonna lie.

I'd say roll what ever you want. I doubt any guild is restricting specific classes.

that's how I ended up here. Over camped zones and zero fun or adventure. At least here if it's crowded you can form and group and go take it haha

Of course there the twinks and power levelers jack all the mobs... here they kill you... but you can also kill them back. Lots of good times regardless. As long as you are wiling to PVP then come enjoy man.

And play whatever you want, most raiding is being dominated by massive overkill zerg guild ATM anyways, so class literally doesn't matter. Play what you like to play and play what you like to pvp. For me this makes life interesting... I like to play almost all classes but I don't like to pvp as a few so I find myself playing only characters I like to pvp on really. I think I could enjoy any of them on level footing but some classes are just to easy to get griefed out of zones on... like my mage... it's too easy to get caught defenseless and have to gate out with no utility spells... My newb shaman in rags on the other hand can chain blind ungeared players even if I'm low mana, has a clicky snare necklace, SoW, and nukes as well as the mage, but with better ac/hp.

Shaman is really fun in PVP and groups, and very strong end game atm from what I see/hear, though I'm not intending to go max level with mine probably. I intentionally picked characters I wanted to play end game, characters I wanted to keep mid level range, etc. so I could enjoy all aspects of the game. I didn't roll main/alts I intended to try and be 60 and BiS on all one day, because I don't have time for all that haha
