Default Warrior vs Farmer

I want to play a warrior but I was wondering if the group exp bonus outweighs the need to create a farming char for gear. Also I noticed about half the server population are neckbeards that are on 12+ hours a day so I guess they are farming?

Warrior is very gear dependent. The faster leveling is just going to make that more apparent to you. I wouldn't recommend a warrior as a first character but it is doable.

This guy took his mouth of az's Pepe long enough to post something worthwhile.

Yes, don't make a war first tank class...make a SK if you want a tank as your first class; as a Paladin I say this with a heavy heart but honesty is a Paladin's trait.

Warrior's are gear dependent but that only really matters if your trying to solo. You can easily group half naked for a long long time here. 1-50 is extremely fast so play what you'd like.

Do you have a friend to play with? If you're duo'ing all the time then you'll be fine.

Rolled an SK as my first class. 50/50 regret it. Its hard. Your nearly worthless in PvP until you are geared. I'm sure a warrior is even more so apparent. That added, I haven't farmed anything and I'm getting geared.

This ain't blue, you don't have to buy your pixels, raiding is a viable option from both sides of the war. Play what you want but realize that at the moment there aren't a lot of low level groups going on. The recent push has all leveled to 40+, so you might want to play a solo class. No reason you can't do both?

Don't make a tank class as your first character.

Seriously, don't. I'm a paladin, I still have turd gear even though a lot of cool ppl have given me minor items here and there. You wouldn't be so lucky, people don't give a fuck about giving away some random Deepwater Boots, but warrior gear is much more in demand. Even with that, its been a huge pain in the ass, and I have a lot more tools to solo and function undergeared than a warrior would.

Make an cazic thule worshiping erudite cleric and level on Paineel guards for phat starter cash and the bonus of not being yet another worthless druid later on.

OR

Make an agnostic gnome wizard. Don't spend time farming dumb shit like Trents for cash. Just blast your way to the level cap.

don't make a necro, don't make a shaman, don't make a magician or some dumb shit. make a cleric or a wizard. srsly.

Squire has some really good points.

Wizards and Clerics always high in demand and both very useful in pvp. Clerics can't really farm plat well though so if you want a meele alt I'd still make a farming class.

I would still say Shaman is viable in pvp, pve, and farming and would always suggest it as a first class.

Wouldn't make a mage.

I was thinking of making a dark elf enchanter to farm, but that could be cause I'm from blue. Maybe I can roll a agnostic dark elf wizard or a dark elf cleric.

Are people suggesting wizard just for leveling speed and joining a top end guild cause I don't recall them being able to farm any dungeons.
