I'd think necro+rogue would work pretty well also.

No one asked what the best combos for a SK or a necro were, people.

Is necro + SK an OK duo?

[Yeska]

My friend wants to play a caster. I dont see her playing a chanter so that leaves us with Necro, magician and Wizard.

I can roll another class if its necesary, the classes i like apart from the Sk are Paladin, Wizard and Rogue.

one thing that bothers me is that i dont want to start in different continents, so if i roll a paladin and she a necro is going to be a problem, i use to die when i try to get the boat at lvl 1 lol.

Make a Human Necro. They can go a lot of places in this game and be liked. Both meet in EC. Problem solved.

You want to play Paladin, Rogue, and SK, which are three very group-oriented classes, and Wizard, a solo class.

She wants to play Necro, Magician, and Wizard, all solo classes. What is wrong with a Shaman again? They do cast spells. A lot of them. And Shaman/SK is one of the strongest duos in the game. Barbarian Shamans are something women don't usually mind playing.

In any case she could play a Necromancer and you a Rogue. Once you get used to Fear kiting you'd be a powerful duo that could simply add a tank to play in a traditional way, with the Necro healing.

Do NOT worry about starting locations. A lot of people will help you get together. Play the races you want, the time you spend apart will be insignificant.

sham / necro > any duo

I know the lore and idea of SK is fun but in reality your going to have a hard time SK will really only slow down the Necros lvl without bringing anything new

[Dalron]

None of the starting races/classes you mentioned start on different continents .... So what was the question?

I half agree with Slave, play the race you want ... but also play the class you want! Don't worry about what the absolute best pair is, play what you want to play. If you're near my level I'll gladly group with you even if you choose a ranger or one of those hybrid classes everyone hates to group with because it would "slow down their exp" ... lol! I'd much rather group with someone playing what they want for the fun of it, than some elitist fuck min-maxer who turns his nose down at you for not picking the absolute best class/race pairing! (The last part isn't aimed at you Slave, don't know you well enough to know if you're one of them or not lol)

dude asked if SK necro was a good duo. its really not so people gave feedback. good duos are comprised of someone who can heal/buff/debuff and someone that can do damage/CC or take damage. Necro does damage and CC. SK takes damage. Its missing an important component. Its not terrible obviously but after 40 45 there gonna slam into a wall and slow down really unessesarily. and I am all for playing what you want to play but I also never want to set up new players to fall flat on there face.
play what you want but be ready for a rough ride since Eq doesnt have alot of grey area with class combos your either setup for max efficiency or you are a terrible combo.

Typical min-maxer thinking, lol. But it is simply not true.
