Cleric vs Paladin
I'm just starting my first experience with p1999 after not having played EQ in about 10 years. I'm trying to decide between rolling a cleric or a paladin on green/teal. I'm leaning more toward paladin because I like to be a snowflake, but definitely not against playing a cleric instead. I have no experience playing either class, as I was strictly a wizard during my time playing EQ.
My main concern is that I can only play sporadically during the week, which means I'll have to be able to solo to some extent. I don't need either class to be great at soloing, I just need it to be possible. I know paladin is probably not going to be easy for soloing but wondering if it's at least doable. Opinions are greatly appreciated, as I am feeling like a total noob. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | ||

Clerics can’t really solo anything unless it is undead pretty early in their career. Then it is nearly a full load of mana per mob. Then you sit and med up. I’d argue that if soloing is the criteria for you the neither class is suitable. I have a cleric purely for groupwork and a Druid for soloing and be able to get around.

If you decide to roll a cleric I recommend you roll it on Teal and not green. There is a heavy population of Druids and Clerics on green so getting groups there is harder. I sat on Green for two hours unable to group my cleric and did the /move to teal where I got a group in 15 minutes.
If you go Paladin however then I highly recommend Green because it has a high population of players but a shortage of tanks. You would be most sought after for grouping.

cleric is a solid choice. They really are *pretty decent* soloers vs undead, given the understanding that it is boring, it is basically root nuke med. THere are plenty of people out there who leveled clerics totally solo more or less just nuking undead, it really as far as soloing classes goes is better than many. You know this but it is also an amazing group class and a great way to make a bunch of friends when you don't know anyone coming to a server new!
If your criteria is "I wanna group mainly but want the option to solo at least somewhat effectively" they are a great bet!

Clerics heal, Paladin's tank. Both are excellent class choices.
