[re: soloing]
Warrior and Rogue both solo poorly unless you're going hard with the twinkage (think fungi). You have no spells or abilities so basically you're stuck picking off blues near zone lines.

The hybrids and Monks can do this much more convincingly. Turns out spells and abilities give you more options—who knew.

[re: raiding]
Warriors are desired on raids, but you're gonna get called to MT (or get relentlessly clowned on) and gear upgrades might be pretty slow. However, if you can MT a little, you will be loved.

Paladin, you will tank trash or ramp tank sometimes, but mostly you're gonna auto-attack and cast a buff. Sometimes you'll be asked to not attack, but rather watch the tank's HP and click Soulfire CH charges.

As a Rogue you're going to autoattack. Sometimes they might want you to use your disc to bump, but even if you're bad at this you will be loved, as rogues are so necessary for velious raids.

Monks are great autoattackers and basically never tank (exception being you're practically BiS and vocal about it), but will be asked to pull. Pulling is fun, but tricky and potentially stressful. You will get clowned on if you just autoattack in camp—"camp monk" will be your name. Gear upgrades will also be competitive. Like Rogues you will be asked to bump.

Rangers basically just cast 1 buff and autoattack. You will also have to bump from time to time. People will love you because melees really want that 1 buff. If you manage to not suck at bumping you will be a hero.


That being said, I think Paladin is good choice if you enjoy it. Ranger also seems up you're alley. Being camp monk is also a time honored tradition of shaman mains, so I wouldn't rule it out.
