I just think it sad when the community recommends leveling up an 'easy' class to farm with, twink out your main, just to make it slightly easier for him to level.
If class balance was this wonky, why did we love Classic so much?

The smart ones do it because it's an investment with infinite returns. You can't think so short-term. You get a farm class so you can fund the warrior you really feel like playing
today. Chances are, you'll do one of two things with that warrior: Hit 50, get bored, roll another alt or decide against the warrior, roll another toon. Either way, it's quite likely you won't gear out just one toon, and at the very least you'll wish you had platinum to spend. Make a farm toon first, find yourself set for the rest of your EQ "life".
My first toon on live was a ranger, it was hell. I was broke, struggled, and hated grouping with twinks because they made me feel inadequate. I made my enchanter here first, now I've been able to twink 3 toons in the time it would have taken me to gear just that ranger in a comparable fashion. Farm toon > Fun toon if you are a power-gamer who wants flexability. If you are a casual who isn't even sure you'll even hit 50,
then do I suggest just playing whatever floats your boat. In that case, you might as well just enjoy your limited time.
