Wow seriously you guys should just quit the game already. "I was having a hard time finding groups as a necro"...

Finding a group can be a pain at times (it's part of the game), but there's another half of EQ classes that CANNOT EVEN SOLO.

I did, you needlessly bitter fellow. I played an Iksar warrior on live from the launch of Kunark till SoF, it was damn hard, especially since they couldn't wear plate, not even Kunark plate! I too was jealous of pet classes but I consoled myself with the fact that in this wonderful game each class has its own strengths and weaknesses, drawbacks and compensations.

Pet classes can solo, they can also be crushed like a tube of paste. They can also have a hard time getting a group being one of many of the choices in the "big bag of dps". Nec's in the lower levels don't have very many group friendly spells, they can snare yes, but they do no real damage besides the pet as most mobs die before their dots can be of much use.

EQ's classes aren't all the same and that is what makes it EQ.
