I have heard it said that it is easiest starting out with an int caster where you can farm gear and make plat, and then twink out a more gear dependent alt.
That's essentially my plan! I've played EQ long enough to know that playing an undergeared melee is a long, painful road. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Curious what makes an int caster more apt for play farming than say, a druid? I'm not really sure where the primary plat sources are on this server.

I remember back in the day, being able to port/track was a huge advantage to farming random gear to sell for plat. But I do really like the idea of a mage for using a pet to mow through things. I've only ever played a mage in more recent EQ eras and enjoyed it very much, but curious how they fare in a world without Plane of Knowledge, Healer mercs, etc.
