Hi Haledan,

Welcome to P1999 - I literally just joined a few days ago, and really haven't gotten anywhere either, but I was an extremely long time ex-EQ player and can maybe give you advice on your class selection based on what you're thinking.

Wizard is an excellent class. They are very strong later on, and have THE strongest nukes, hands down. Getting resisted sucks though. They also get some neat tools (ports, etc) and are generally well liked and accepted in groups.

Now, that being said, they are not easy to solo in the beginning unless you have good gear. You'll have to have a mana buff or decent starting gear so you can root/nuke stuff. You simply cannot tank mobs by yourself and around level 8-9 you will get wrecked hard if you try and tank stuff yourself. Soloing is not ideal at this range (until you get your snare) and it would be best if you found yourself a partner.

I love druids, because druids are sort of "jacks of all trades" in that they have a little of everything: Ports, buffs, nukes, heals, you name it. They are a strong class.

In the end, play what you want. Try and get groups starting at 8-10 if you're all alone and no one is helping you. I am still figuring out what I want to play...but when I decide, maybe we can team up. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
