My druid. Progression wise everything was an adventure of my own design. The only thing I would ever consider needing on him would be a guise.

My ehcnater was by far the most fun I had in a short amount of time, but after a while farming things and items became less fun and learning how to solve all the quests and find items in outdoor zones became my final destination in norrath.

One day I will finally be at rest, somewhere in a hut in a zone with level 12 mobs pathing around it, not on some alter plane at the foot of an immortal dragon. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I enjoyed my two mains for the most part. The paladin was great for group stuff and for very slow casual leveling (took 7 years to hit 60). The wizard was great for a super easy class that could contribute to raids without being so critical as to be stressful. Definitely had fun with both, but will be doing something new for Green. Probably not a tank and definitely not a wizard, but pretty much anything else could work.

I’ve played every class, and they’re all badass in their own way. I think that’s what makes this game so great is all of the different choices you have based on what you like to do.

What I’ve found more enjoyable is finding that perfect race and class combination that caters to you specifically instead of just the class alone. My two favorite combinations would have to be Troll SK and Dark elf wizard. Trolls in plate, regen, 2h bash, big starting stats, etc. it just feels right. And as a dark elf wizard with their fashion and having hide for all those med breaks and quadding afks I’ve never felt a racial ability more useful throughout the leveling process.

Monk is my favorite, as it requires more creativity than other classes. Geometry makes every split a little different, while say Ranger plays essentially the same in ToV and Kael (I'm sure some Ranger will come along to dispute this).

Contrary to Eberron I think Enchanter is fairly straightforward; mostly it just requires constant attention for quick recharming and a bit of zone knowledge if you want to solo. But for raw power you can't beat Enchanter in all the way through Planes of Power. Enc/Clr/X can absolutely steamroll Kunark dungeons without respect using AE mez and tash. A great Green choice except that you don't need a Guise or Manastone!

Warrior is extremely straightforward, but you definitely feel like the center of attention and everyone depends on you not fucking up. It's also a great class for raid leading since you aren't doing quite so much yourself. I'm a big Sakuragi fan, but if I had to do it over again, I probably would have rolled a Paladin.

Bard is interesting and very powerful but it's just a ridiculous amount of clicking and I like to chat, so my bard is now stuck in the tunnel.

Necromancer is underrated here but in the end you are half gimp monk and half gimp enchanter.

I am greatly concerned that at the end game I am really going to be unhappy with my choice of rolling a necromancer.

I am tempted to do a monk, but I dont want a class that is going to be guilted into working hard at raids.

What is life like for a level 60 necromancer? Do you feel like a powerful lich? Or do you feel like a gimped monk and enchanter and just roll an alt one of those and end up full timing it and ghosting your necro?

Just curious.

Necros, much like bards, are the WD40 of eq. We make everything operate more smoothly. It’s not always glamorous (especially twitching in raids) but total power is more than most all classes in the game.

I had a Wizzy and SK on live. I loved my SK on live until they nerfed the class, then I liked my wizzy more because they finally added AA's that made him useful. The game in general finally got me pissed off enough because Sony made the content more and more a time sink. I couldn't find groups so I had to solo but exp was so slow it took hours just to progress. Sony's answer to not finding groups eventually became the mercenary and related quests but I was gone by then.
On P99 my lost love was being a druid. The nerfing of charming animal pets on live killed it for me but here on P99 it allows all classes to be what they should before Sony started changers and nerfs due to peer pressure from the players.

Yeah. If you've never done it, you should try it. There are so many ways to win.
