Druid or necro. Necro can push Fd and go afk at the drop of a hat. Also can solo and doesnt need gear.

Druid is another good choice. They can solo͵ have best travel skills͵ and after level 19 you can port to a druid rings (relatively safe places to afk) at any point if you need to quickly leave. Also not very gear dependant.

If you have pp to spend monk also an option

Druid/Necro is ALWAYS the answer given and its why 50% or more of the server are Druids and Necros.

Play something else! Server needs tanks! You are likely to get a fair amount of "free stuff" in terms of gear, money, weapons, etc, so don't worry about the "You can't play a tank unless you twink", as your chances of finding someone to give you some stuff to help you on your way is REALLY likely (I've had it happen on all 3 of the characters I've started, without asking). Plus you'll be able to tank for groups without much problem even if your gear isn't the BEST, magic weapon and banded will get you to high 20's.

When you can't figure out what to pick, pick the worst possible. Erudite Shadow Knight and follows Innoruuk.
I think I may go with the first answer on the board. This sounds like both a challenge and interesting experiment.

I understand the argument for both Druid and Necro (I have played both to 17) There is just something missing that doesn't get me too excited to play the class.

Troll Warrior all dex for criticals and crippling blows which are really satisfying. Troll regen is nice, and good str/Sta and decent agi

I really want this to not be a joke, is this a joke? I feel like this would be a good choice...

Early levels you can berserk bow kite bugs pretty well (they run slow. Run diagonally to build even more distance).

For off hand use a useful proc like polished granite tomahawk to pad tanking or dps until duel wield actually produces a decent amount of swings (procs can happen even on failed duel wield checks).

While toe-to-toe fighting bind wound, /stand, attack on hotkeys while fighting goes a long way.

Combat is simple afk auto attack, preferably standing in a narrow corridor so you don't get pushed out of range of the target, letting you deal with adult responsibilities.

Down time just make a hotkey that spams 5 bandages (or 4 then sit).

Troll was the suggestion above, but personally I found Halfling works well to this style, hide//sneak really cuts down on invis potions used and opens up a lot of vendors/quests you might not normally be able to access.

Hmmmmmm, this intrigues me when you say more vendors/quests. I do like the idea of being smaller and on the good side. Hard to say goodbye to regen though [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

honestly this would be pretty fun. If you manage to get him to proc'ing weapon range the DEX boost will be sweet and you'll have good stats all around.

It's a strong version of a warrior that's uncommon. Nice suggestion Aesop!
Ok that does it, even if this is a joke I'm rolling with it and blaming yall if it all goes pair shaped.

Not a joke, warrior is a tough solo choice but keep bind wound maxed + the regen will help downtime. Great duo and slam uses bash skill for trolls and skills up and it's great for interrupts before kickstun at 55.
