Old School EQ1&2 player returning

[Klicks]

Hello everyone I just signed up on the site and getting the game setup now on my pc. I played a lil of EQ1 back in the day with my brother who knows everything about the game n played since launch. He even plays on the p99 server too n hope to surprise him in-game. But the real reason im posting is because I wanted to see what classes are in high demand right now on the server for end-game raid content/ grouping. I played a shaman and mage back in the day around lvl 50, but wanted to play something new.
I played about 8 years off and on in EQ2 and was a guardian/zerker for most of that time. I always liked to tank but i noticed warriors were kind of boring to play in EQ1. Just wanted to get some advice before i jumped into the game and wasted a lot of time on a character thats not gonna be needed much. Im def. up for playing a DPS or healer too if badly needed on the server, so hope to hear some input from some of you fellow EQ players! [You must be logged in to view images.
