Pally/SK newbie gear question

[Snaggles]

Having respectable charisma definitely helps with crit lull resists. You can solo the right places and avoid splitting spawns in most cases tho. In high groups you almost always have a dedicated puller anyways.

I would just go with what you like the most. The Pally really gets fun around level 30 with stun and 39 for Ghealing. The SK around 22 with engulfing darkness. That’s a bit of grinding to see them start to come into their element but frankly both classes are a blast (just different).
