Just tell me what race/class I should pick based on my favorite colors being black+pink and my fav animal is the Raven. Anything that resembles this ingame?

I only wanted to do a Rogue cause they have the Ravenscale armor. But if it's too hard it's too hard. What race/class then should I pick if I like the color soft pink?

Heya, if you want to have a set of black armor using the chaintexture you aren't limited to Ravenscale, and so you aren't limited to Rogue.

Have you considered Blackened Alloy Armour? It provides decent AC at a light weight (and a few pieces give some other useful stats too). I believe any chain / plate class can wear it too!

Female Iksars have some nice pink details. I'd argue their reptilian appearance suggests they are diapsids, like birds, rather than synapsids like humans (and presumably the similar softskins ... if we can even force real world groupings on to the disparate peoples of Norrath) making them the closest race to a bird race.

Decked out in Blackened Alloy armor a female iksar shaman, warrior or shadowknight
may be of interest to you (think of the link between fear, death, decay, ravens and shadow knights...).

I don't care about the black color in specific. I have asperger and I like choosing things especially in an MMO that shows what I like. I like the color soft pink for some reason and I like Ravens. Isn't there anything by name or color in EverQuest that resembles the color pink or a Raven for a class/race combo?

Like is there a race or class specific armor that looks like soft pink or a lot of black with some pink? Or anything with a Raven? I only found the Ravenscale armor for Rogue. Let me just say I picked the Raven as favorite animal because I'm a fan of Half-Life 2 and Ravenholm was a pretty cool part in it. I also like Zombies. Zombies, Ravens, Black+Soft Pink. What comes to mind in EverQuest?

The servers are so old now you'll be fine starting as a fresh rogue. Passable gear is cheap in the tunnel,and even a rogue can farm up enough plat to get a decent weapon.
Just don't plan on soloing past the first levels,but soloing on an mmo is kind of lame anyway.

I would rather choose an easier class though. Isn't there a good race/class combo that has something to do with the color pink or with zombies or with ravens? Even if there are only ravens or zombies or something pink in the starting city?

Consider starting as a Human Paladin, following the "Queen of Love" Erollisi Marr, the cultural armor is pink-ish. Get a ghoulbane and travel to unrest in your low teens to fight zombies for days and weeks and months.

Can you show me a picture of the Queen of Love cultural armor or are there none on the internet? I gotta admit though, out of all the religions in EverQuest I like Erollisi Marr, Quellious, Karana the most, I think. I never considered myself an evil person and I always prefer the good alignment races.

There are quite a limited pool of armour textures. Each race has a cloth, leather, chain and plate set of textures for females and another set for males. Some races also have a fee robe textures and a monk texture too.

Individual armour sets don’t have unique appearances - they’ll use one of those textures and maybe tint the texture with a single colour. The velious expansion added a few new armour textures too.

So you won’t find an armour with a pink and black tint.

That pink armor in the image with the female Erudite looks good. To be honest, I do like those Erudites they specialize in magic and knowledge, kinda like High Elfs, BUT I wouldn't want to play as a black character in an MMO since I'm white. I think Erudites are one of the coolest races but I wouldn't want to play as the black people out of principle. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Maybe I'm just too racist lol. Well the person above you has said the Erollisi Marr cultural armor from the Humans (in Freeport or Qeynos?) is pink. So I should just choose a Human Paladin Erollisi Marr??? Is that the best choice when I like the color pink or is there something better?
