Paladin and Ranger probably least played of your list, but Paladin among the more needed. Tanks are probably the toughest member to find while leveling, and groups will always need them. So in saying that Shadow Knight isn't a bad choice either. Rangers are very fun to play but definitely a mediocre class that needs love. Come velious though they get some perks to make soloing with them more viable (fear animal) but most people on server have a biased/hatred to the class and you may have trouble finding groups. Clerics are also always needed but there definitely seems to be more of them then tanks. Rogue/Monk are best DPS classes in the game and come Velious many many guilds will want as much melee dps as they can get so this isn't a bad choice either if you plan on making it to the end game. Necromancer is a great class for soloing and among the better choices for a first character because you wont need much gear to be viable and you can camp cash camps later on to equip other alt characters.


Over all, I'd decide what role you'd like to play.

If you want to play a tank and always be needed then go Paladin/SK/Ranger(kinda, only really while lvling up) but keep in mind that as a melee you're gear dependent and it can be tough for a first character.

If you want to play DPS then I'd go Rogue/Monk/Ranger(kinda, still behind the other two)

If you want to play a healer/rezzer and always be needed go cleric.


If you want to play a solo character with the ability to pharm end game pretty well with super utility and dps role for when in grps I'd go Necromancer.


Hope that helped some!
