Monk and Druid as well technically. Although Monk not really if you're fresh to the server since you need some gear to make that truly efficient (plus groups will then expect you to pull and know the zone).

Druid is a good option as well. Can root rot and charm kill (animals) and eventually quad kite (kill four mobs at once while kiting them - med up, rinse and repeat) while also being desirable in groups at least for the first like 2/3s of the game. I think around 40 is where grouping as a Druid became tougher IIRC...your heals just can't keep up with the content so it's much harder to be the main heal in a group.

If you want the best warm body Raid class you can't beat paladin. You sit there with the tank targeted and your finger over your soulfire
Waste the charges,get more dkp for getting a new one.
Then yeah sell Raid loot

Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. I think I'm going to make an Iksar shaman. Always had a soft spot for Cabilis. More than that I got some good ideas for alts.

So, I just wondered how the server is atm. I haven't played in 5-6 years on blue, and I kinda wanted a fresher start. My concern though is the group situation so far into the server life, and also me being EU based. Anyone got a take on this?


Somewhat wanna roll a rogue like in the old days, but that's kinda horrible as a solo.

green is basically in the same state as blue now, with a slightly busier xp superhighway

Yeah, that does not sound viable. Thanks

if you know ppl who play or can make friends, then you will get geared fast

i mean unless you really wanna do the solo-self-found thing, then more power too you

basically everyone who plays on blue or green (moreso blue) is sitting on 10+ bags of gear that they don't have the patience to sit in EC and sell

so like if you log in run around doing noob stuff, you will come across people who are like hey here take my stuff if you can use it, especially at peak play hours

or try going to EC and /auc WTB banded gear for a new player, I'd bet real money that people just give you stuff

ok not real money but I'll bet plat/gear on it, if no one gives you anything then I will [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Drum up a bit of noise in the forums / discord / game for the days/times you expect to be available to play and you may get others enthused to start. You only really need a couple of other people or so to be active at your preferred times.

I too haven't played in years and needing something to play now that I am done with school. As a fresh green player and if I wanted to go rogue, soloing past 10 is probably impossible, are there groups available across the level ranges or would I get stuck?

rogue initially will be tough until you can get on the "Xp superhighway" which is just the most popular leveling zones

if you dont like the idea of sitting around waiting for a group or trying to find people because you cant solo, dont go rogue

or look for twink melees and beg to duo and do little pecker pokes as they do 95% of the work
