Which class is least represented?

Recently joined and have been playing enchanter. Just curious what classes are in high demand in leveling/grouping stages as well as end game? Which are in abundance?

That offers you a breakdown of the distribution of classes, generally. This doesn't say a thing about demand however. Ranger, Paladin are both low, but also are in low demand. Druid and Necromancer are high, but are also in low demand. Wizards are low, but probably going to be more in high demand come Velious.

For endgame there aren't a ton of ench/sham cause a lot if them solo and don't raid. Other classes would be magician, paladin, SK, ranger, and probably rogue.

Wizards are underplayed and will be VERY popular for Velious raiding [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] ... not easy finding groups on P99 though. I had one for Velious back on live and never struggled to find a group. People are different here.

If you want to find groups quickly... play a cleric.

If you want to roll one character and just one... play what you enjoy and don't worry about what's popular and what isn't [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Wizards:

1-32: Be a burden to groups
32-56: Quad (kelethin guards at 51, don't be a pussy)
56-60: Chardok

Wizards should never group. Their damage/mana efficiency is only .6 higher than a druid/mage at 60.

As for underrepresented classes like ranger or paladin, you'll find groups more or less as often, or just be creative and proactive and you shouldn't have a problem.
