I would love to see this again if anyone is up for it! I won't be able to be on and see the counts for another day or so.

I played Druid as my first character on Blue because it was recommended to me. Totally regreted it. Couldn't main heal in groups, couldn't do much DPS and quad kiting was dangerous and not fun. I felt like my character's only purpose for living was to hand out buffs and port people. And Shaman has better buffs at that.

This time I'm playing a Troll SK. Even though it's harder to level, hopefully it will be more gratifying.

Druida are amazing, sorry you're terrible

Druid besr class in game.

All classes best in game.

lol you are I are going to be hitting refresh in the next few days waiting for the threads to come in.

-classic above all-

I think a solid portion of the druid population is planning to use the druid to powerlevel future characters, either by sharing access to the druid or trading PLs with guildmates.

Yeah, or for farming stufff (track) and the like. Or to swap around with a friend for porting each other. Im sure the number of people who actually wanna main a druid is lower than is grinding one now.

As to these numbers i too am curious and if noone else does it will re run them tonight.

Just ran the numbers, here's what I saw:

Total: 2187

Druid - 296
Enchanter - 279
Shaman - 237
Necro - 222
Mage - 210
Cleric - 209
Warrior - 148
Bard - 125
Monk - 95
Rogue - 91
Paladin - 86
SK - 84
Wiz - 64
Ranger - 41

First dragon raids will be fun. Druids healing, shamans trying to melee, 1 set of bard resists for every 3 groups, hardly any melee OR wizard dps.

I'd be surprised if most of those shamans make it to level 34.
