Hello all .. just starting a few questions

[dg_w]

Hi everyone...

I found the server, and have created an account, will hopefully start in a day or so ..
I have not been on EQ since 1990s! (misspent uni time) I am thinking of a Druid or Shaman ... leaning towards a Wood elf Druid for getting around and solo play?
I will be mostly soloing as and when I get on. (older player here with wife and kids getting in the way of my game time! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Will be on most evenings for an hour or so, so that's a priority, though I guess some usefulness in groups later may be useful .. decided against Necro because if the hassles of not being liked, trading etc? though they look like a good solo chacter

Can I get some advice on that , and maybe race and where to put my points at creation please... and maybe useful trade skills? (just reading the wiki..)

I recall doing a Human "something" all those years ago and found out many (many!) months later it was not such a good idea!

Maybe a different class would prove better for solo play? (Bard perhaps ...I never played one... Shaman, Wizard, Necro or Enc) I am reading up but have been out of EQ for many years now. and forgot most of everything! I do like the utility and buff spells,with a bit of melee, but open to ideas

See you all in Norath soon I hope
