Default New P99er, questions about the server

Hi guys!

I played EQ from 2001 until just before Omens of War. I always gravitated towards hybrid classes, with my main being a Ranger. I just started up a Ranger about a week ago, I'm only level 7. A couple of nice passersby gave me a couple of pieces of gear to get me going, but I'm having second thoughts about playing the Ranger. I remember they really hit their stride with Luclin and AAs (I didn't even level a Ranger until Luclin, with most of my play being Luclin/PoP), and my main concern is how particular people are about min/maxing their groups. I'm confident in my solo ability, but I want to be able to find a group too.

My alternative choices would be Shaman, Rogue, or Monk. I don't really enjoy INT casters and I've never played a pure melee in EQ (and I think it'd be cool to try it), so those are most appealing (and from what I've read, more desirable) of the non-hybrid classes.

Basically I'm asking if playing a hybrid (specifically Ranger) is going to bite me in the butt after I invest significant time into it. I know the pros/cons of most classes in the era, I'll definitely play the Ranger eventually anyway, but I might focus on another char first if it'll be more group friendly. I just don't know what the attitude of the community is towards group maximization.

Thanks in advance
Partil
Level 7 Ranger
