New/Returning player!

[Tramlok]

Hey folks, returning player from velious era retail EQ. I was a rogue on xegony/zebuxoruk all through depths of darkhollow. I cannot for the life of me remember what EQ was like back in velious/kunark era. As far as the class balancing goes for groups and such, coupled with solo ability I am having a class choice dilemma. I do enjoy tanking, but as I remember the warrior class was a bit bland in the abilities area and had aggro problems. What is the charm solo ability like for enchanters back in the P1999 era? What about any shortages of clerics? Shadowknight fear kiting ability?
