ok so i played here a while back, had a 40something druid, and some others, no idea where that account went had 3 loginserver accounts on eqemu, now theres 1...whatever im over that....
anyways, i started fresh, which is always fun, and was talking to the girlfriend last night... she said she'll play with me.
we played together when i initially played here, and i went through the process (which i dont exactly remember) of getting an ip exemption. i doubt ill be able to recover her old eqemu account so ill likely make her another one.
my question is, will i need to get a new ip exemption as the accounts will likely be different (not even sure if my ip will be the same as it was back then either)? or will we be able to just jump in and play without fear of being banned for something im not doing?
**on a side note, what classes you think we should run, some good combos would be great if anyone has any suggestions, ill likely let her pick whatever she wants, and then pick something to go along with it**

No idea on the IP exemption, I would request one anyway
Tons of threads on great duo combinations. Probably better to ask girlfriend what she wants to play/do.
Any two classes that are good soloers are good together, such as mage/necro or druid/enchanter
Healer + tank combo, including monk/shaman, SK/shaman. Really shaman/anything will work (except maybe cleric)
GLHF. Wish my wife would play but she likes WoW better and actually gets sick from everquest (motion sickness, can't even play games like mario 64)

As far as duo, I think there's a pretty strong consensus that Enchanter/Cleric or Enchanter/Shaman can do the hardest camps as a duo, compared to other duos. Although I think there are better mass farming duos, but I have no idea what they might be.

Once you get an enchanter to Level 12, enchanter/cleric goes from strength to strength... get the enchanter's charisma to 200+ and charm a pet, get the cleric to buff and keep it healed - add two rusty weapons (keep a bag full)... and you'll rocket up the levels.
I say cleric because the EQ ladies love to heal, it seems.
If "girlfriend" was code for boxing - then a lot of combos seem to opt for a shaman healer...SK or warrior/shaman I'd say, and don't get caught ;)

My <strike>girlfriend</strike> wife and I just started out (again) from scratch on two new LS accounts, so we'd be happy to play along with you as you level. We're playing the tried-and-true WAR/SHM combo.

We actually met because we had EQ in common but had both long-since quit playing before dating. This is our first time actually getting to play together AND enjoy Classic EQ all at once.

I've heard a lot stories about EQ ruining relationships but none about bringing one together. Until now that is.

One time I had a girl come over for dinner, it was our second date. I had EQ running on a computer in the dinning room. She asked what it was and I explained it too her. We then made her a character and she played while I made dinner. After dinner she asked me to show her around the EQ world. I let her play to explore for herself....I fell asleep on my couch and woke up at four in the morning, she was still playing and made level 6! I knew she was the one. We have been together for 12 years and married for 11.

i would do melee any class, and healer any class, and then spend your nights inviting others to do threesomes to round stuff out.. trios > duos
but then again, I wear velvet pajamas and have a lavalamp in my sex cove

talked to the gf about classes she would be interested in playing today. she said she would play...
ranger
wizard
SK
for her ranger i was thinking i would play either a shaman or a cleric, for her SK the opposite.
just not sure on what to match that wizard up with, any advice on this would be much appretiated
(not druid, thats my solo class :P)

Ench or Necro for the Wizard duo. You already have ports, clarity is always nice, and if you can stay in a fear kite with the necro, also works wonders. You don't have the issue (well, maybe you do) of your duo partner not bitching you don't carry your weight (in game of course) so you can just do what you'd like. I've had fun with two Wizards at once as well. later levels it makes for really fun quadding, etc

Another Wizard, you can play pinball outdoors and root/nuke indoors. Things should die very quickly, and then have some downtime while medding. Since you get ports, you could always make it to EC fairly quickly and get Clarity to help speed up mana recovery.

ranger is a long hard road ><
little tanking ability, average dps at best, some utility but not much, nothing super special that she couldnt get from another class, no plate....
and the dreaded 40% hybrid xp penalty, tho since you will be grouping together you'll be sharing that. As her personal cleric you two shouldnt have too much trouble fighting together.
but still... may want to reconsider. you dont have to, obviously, i just have a thing against rangers =P thought i'd warn you as to the pitfalls of the class.
