At least warriors are viable at level 60. I remember having a blast on my warrior when Green first launched, and then I hit 50 and realized I was literally just a sub-par melee DPS that almost never got to tank cool stuff. I spent so much time gathering the annoying list of clickies and consumables that they required, and for all that effort, I occasionally got a pity offtank spot or a rare chance to tank Phinny every once in a great while. Raiding with Kingdom at level 50 as warrior was definitely the nadir of my EQ experience. It sucked. I eventually stopped playing... didn't really have the energy to reroll after so much time and effort on my warrior.
If a new server happens, I'm 100% rolling SK and never looking back. Probably gonna be an Erudite for maximum style and coolness points, too. For posterity, I do NOT recommend playing a warrior for any reason in pre-Kunark EQ. They're straight up trash.
