Well in actual practice the winner of discord was a high elf cleric with his brother playing a wood elf ranger. Since it was a lot about hunting down and killing enemies before they get too strong it was important to have a tracker. The cleric with deep pool of survivability was level 46 if I recall, when the server ended. He was not allowed to be formally ranked because his name was Apostle, which was a pretty dick move by SonyEQ at the time, since there were flagrant policy violations being perpetrated all around the server and that hero didn't get ranked because of a naming policy violation.

I don't know what the rangers name was.

This is a different scenario because they were duo'd 100% of the time which compensates for each classes weaknesses. An SK is a better killer than basically anyone, but it can be compensated for by cleric heals and I'd imagine running away and arrow kiting which is easy to do in old world as long as you avoid the like 3 tight dungeons.

So yeah there are a lot of different scenarios and it depends on ERA and GEAR and of course skill.

Again, Clerics and Pallies arent #1 PVP picks because they don't have any great tools to land kills. They're defensive. This in turn leads the best PVP players to avoid them, because those guys want to secure KILLS not just survive.
