any good solo classes that aren't too popular right now?
 
Sort of want to make a caster as an alt... But it seems like there are already 5000 druids and mages running around. Also a lot of necros.

Any suggestions of a caster class that's good at soloing in classic? how about wizard?

Wizard = cant twink well + too much downtime wasteing mana on mobs... Mage FTW!

Can a server ever have too many clerics?

my computer isn't so good.. that's my reason for not choosing a healer.

At high levels, I don't think "oh sry, got some lag" is an excuse for a cleric letting 1-2 people die. Not gonna risk it

Be a chanter, we need more crack dealers out there.

That's understandable. With the good comes the bad.

I think the problem is that historically speaking, the server has been at lower populations making it difficult to find a group. Of course some classes had an easier time of this than others.

So you see a lot of mages, druids, and necros, as I assume some people don't want to be bothered trying to make a group with such limited population.

However, I, as many others, have recently joined which pretty much made getting groups super easy. I'm only level 11 but have been able to find groups consistantly since level 5 and don't forsee it stopping.

Best advice is to make what you want, not what others say you should make. Will turn out 100% happier, regardless of how "popular" your class is.

not a bad idea.. i've certainly never played an enchanter..

how would you rate their solo capabilities though? (I know it's not super high.. just asking for the hell of it)

Lets say a necro is a 10 at soloing (outdoors at least), and a rogue or warrior is a 1 at soloing (not sure, just guessing)

what's a chanter? talkin about mid levels, lets say 20-40. I assume a chanter can't solo at 40+ haha

edit: I might just make a wizard... teleporting is dope... they do huge damage, what's not to love. Mages are all gonna suck when a few expansions come out

Enchanter can be argued as one of the best solo classes in the game, even with the nerfs to charm.

wow.. very tempting to start one, i've never considered playing an enchanter...

what kind of solo tactics do they use? charm something, haste it, slow the mob, and shitty nukes? or what..

sorry for all the n00b questions, just tryin to get back into the game and have some fun =)
