Agree with dude above me. I'll go into a little bit more detail so you can get the Thugnotes version.
Leveling any class that is not a caster without being twinked is absolutely brutal. You will be at the mercy of partnering with players or groups more often than not. Unlike WoW in this game, you don't get to click your food/drink after a fight and med to full in 8 seconds. Medding for mana/health is a real thing here, so if you're a melee and you can't find yourself a healer bro, you can bandage to 50% health and after that you turn on netflix and chill for a few mins. Even then as a character that is going to be using basic gear a lot of mobs will eat your dingos.
Druids/chanters/necros hands down best soloing caster classes for first toons. They are distinctively different, do a bit of research at P99 wiki before you decide on the class that fits you. All 3 of these can make significant plat by themselves as you progress in levels.
You see a lot of druids because they can port(this world is huge, sometimes running to a city can take 5-15 minutes), quad kite, and solo well without almost any items, and their skill check is basement level. Solid starting class.
The holy trinity of this game is warrior,cleric,enchanter, pick any of the 3 and there is no curve in the game at which you will find yourself unable to find a group or a raid slot. If you see me on ill throw you a couple hundred pp to help the early struggle.
