I wish it was a true single-player game. It's quite annoying being constantly reminded that I have to play the same game as people who stay up for 6 days straight to get level 50 in a beta.

Apparently Pal/Shm/Ber is the strongest combo, capable of soloing D4 raids

I am tempted to try Pal/Mag/Enc too because I always felt mage synergizes welll with enc

The Enchanter's pet is pretty good. It is a warrior/paladin.

And apparently the Shaman pet can cast drowsy and can tank starting level Vox.

Mage in Legends is kind of lack luster.

This is kind of old info but has still some valid info (the beastlord pet has been buffed and now also slows.)

I have heard that about the mage, and pets in general are underwhelming, or maybe that was before the dual class pets

I don’t know how hard I would try to powergame if I did play, the difficulty “levels” reminds me of trying to push higher rifts in Diablo 3, and I got really sick of beating my head against that wall

I haven’t seen literally any raid content, so doing it on casual scrub D0 or whatever difficulty is still breaking new ground for me

I haven’t bothered to check, but why are people recommending picking druid or wiz for main class for those teleport rituals, when I’m also hearing you can’t switch your main class until 50? Are these people really wanting to be stuck on a shitwizard main until 50? I could see doing druid or wiz as your secondary, but not main. Or am I wrong?

Played a bunch this weekend.

Had an absolute blast! But hopefully I get bored soon (I'=m afraid I wont). Because EQ is addictive as always.

pending balance changes post beta...

what i tried:

WAR/DRU/BRD = dru/bard thorns stack with thorns pot (anyone can do alchemy) + singing aa's affect thorns. got it to 77 pts by the end. pull whole zones of blues but not a bosser. great afk/low input farmer if you want something while working etc.

PAL/ZERK/BRD = autoattack brainless madness straight to 50. ez to haste cap and zerk stance meme is great. but if you ever have to go defensive, you lose virtually all the benefits of zerk. A geared PAL/ZERK is a great duo for plvling your third class though as the undead blender, but then you're sanctioning yourself to befallen and lgukquest for eternity.

PAL/MNK/ENC = loh, mend, feign, mez, slow, haste. 1000 ways to get out of a bad situation and surprisingly enough heals to take bosses. basically broken bullshit jedi meta. recommended

what i confirmed but didnt get to high level:

ENC/ROG/x - you can hide/sneak with a charm and it wont break. also leveling up charm via motes allows you to boost the -mr check on it AND the level it affects, plus overchannel stance. at level 11 you can pretty reliably charm a level 30 red. so, sneak/hide to the bottom of befallen d4, grab the biggest mnk/zerk or war/mnk or something you can find, sneak/hide back up to ent, have fun. can also hide to skate agro and join the melee.. even without a rogue ENC is absurd. mote up level 11 charm to VII and you can *probably* charm a sand giant and bring your new friend to old school orc highway

RNG can replace MNK as dps because they amped their melee and defensive skills to MNK level, plus they get a flat atk bonus that exceeds monk. So you end up really just trading away mend and fd for arguably better damage, except....

the best weapon is the game is a 1h PAL weapon (lol), primary only, plus you can attach a complete heal affect clicky to it with a 15 minute cooldown + a 100 dmg proc. the second best is MNK 1h, which is not lore and can be dual wielded.

so basically the main character of classic EQL is PAL/MNK/slower of your choice. honestly there are so many factors contributing to this power combo that they'd have to nerf like 5 separate things before it fell

other things I have little knowledge of but heard:

NEC/WIZ/ENC is a full caster capable of highest solo. cool in general
SHM/anything can probably do anything in the game

underpowered right now (hope they address it):
MAG, BST, pets overall
ROG bs and poisons don't have any scaling or leveling so they start good and fall off

my 2cp
