What classes are needed?

Landerz · #1 02-07-2016, 10:56 AM

Hello everyone. Coming back after 13 years and pretty excited to get back into Norrath. I'm going to create 1 main and 1 alt and I was wondering which classes are in demand right now. I would like to do a melee and a caster. I enjoy all the classes so I'm hoping you lovely people would give me some insight on what classes are needed for high end grouping / raiding etc...

Clerics, rogues, warriors are always good choices for raiding depending on how much you plan to play. If you're just starting on the server I'd start with a caster (wiz, nec, mag) or priest class (clr, dru, shm), as melee classes are more gear dependent. I dont include enchanters, because they're gear dependent with CHA.

I'm sure you know which classes are better for solo or grouping, so make sure you include that in your selection.

Play what you want. There does seem to be a lot of monks and shamans though

Roll a class that can solo and farm at 60 if you want to play a melee, but don't let that discourage you from playing a melee. Rogue/War/Cleric tend to be the most in demand raiding classes, but good luck farming the gear you'll need without a caster to play.

you can never have too many clerics, warriors, rogues, enchanters, shamans, and bards in this game

I'll break it down for you as far as I've seen. This is just my opinion though obviously and I could be wrong.

Most in demand classes for grouping: Tanks! Warrior/Shadow Knight/Paladin

Most in demand classes for raiding: Rogue / Cleric / Warrior / Bard / Magician

Top Demand imo Priest = Cleric, Melee = Rogue, tank = SK/War, Caster = Wiz/Ench

Over populated classes = Druid, Shaman, Monk, Necro, Mage, bard (most of this is based on the number of level 60s across a large period of time)

Classes no one takes serious imo,.. Ranger, Paladin
