Just asking for opinions on two things: First, what classes are wanted on the pvp server? I imagine there is a significant lack of clerics? Second, what classes are good for not getting pwnt by random everyone all the time....

Edit:
I significantly prefer caster classes (any type), and am currently considering a druid or a cleric.

for actual pvp, enchanters, bards, clerics are great but they only mostly play support roles in PVP so you will rarely be getting the killshots just helping whoever you play with get them. end game pvp really anyone can get owned just have to be aware of your surroundings.

wizards, rogues are the easiest to get killshots with due to high burst damage(lures, double backstabs) monks fit in here too, but usually unless your well geared or find good match ups which is rare, you will be playing another support-class that can take some decent blows while doing steady damage while waiting for a tstaff proc much like a ranger with a skybow, you are there to proc stun someone while they get assisted down by your pals.

Can't go wrong with a cleric on red, PVE and PVP both need them and every guild too. Druid is a -decent- first starter class, you get sow, ports, now in velly you get sup heal at 51(so you aren't healing for 270hp from level 30 to 53 like before).

Druid you will most likely get bored of quickly unless you stick around the lower 50s range(53 or 54 for scoriae/dots/blizzards etc) no one wants them in groups for exping really, there are an abundance of them also.

Bard you level quickly to 60 on your own or grouped whichever pace you want, any outdoor zone you are king p much with selos. With most of the new velious zones they are huge, travel times are long.

100% guaranteed you will get 'pwnt' by a random almost all the time if you are a wizard or any caster class for that matter because rogues will just shit all over you and once they get double backstab they can do over 50%+ of your self buffed hp in one good double BS alone. But a wizard played properly will dunk on most people if you play them right. Epic also helps.

Anyway though assuming you are new to red and have nothing, ide say go cleric, join up with a leveling guild get some gear figure out what you want to do. Raid, PVP, whatever, save up plat/gear etc you come across to build a second alt char either for pvp or to be your eventual main char.

Get a cleric to 50 and app to any guild you want. They will shower you in pixels.
