I feel like we've established this before, but maybe there just wasn't enough info about how it was broken to reimplement here? I remember reading a dev forum post on it. Anyway, it would definitely bring the power level down a lot on Ench, but at the expense of Pal/Cleric/Bard dynamism, which is sad.

As far as I remember, the equivalent bard songs did work though.

Im gonna do a High Elf Wizard this time.

I never played a wizard, ever! Will be fun to learn how on a green reset for me.

I was contemplating warrior, but I think I want to do magic.

Same I’m gonna do wizzy, never done it but nuking stuff sounds fun and they’re considered bad groupers so a new server when every1 is forced to level together and there’s plenty of groups sounds perfect to me

Edit: that or Rogue for the same reason

As for the question at hand, I'll probably roll Monk or SK and reroll in Kunark. Hybrids are just so good in classic, even if the normies shun them.

I don't understand what people are saying about magician and their pets. Is classic broken for them to get a pet every spell level. And how long before it is fixed after classic release.

You're not a real person, you're a sock puppet account. You only exist in the forum, so you can't play any class.

I see bards have a low vote rate. Whats so bad about a bard on day 1, is it just the hybrid penalty or?

crackdowns on zone disruptions
end game raiders dont really wanna be a mana battery and they become less and less needed the more people or gear you have, plus enchanters do what they do but better. and twisting becomes a gigantic chore because fights dont last long
and many many many people get depressed as fuck after they learn bard mechanics and their starting stats into cha are a waste and they spent 10k+ on a suit of mystic high elf armor
oof and when people find out how small the radius is on level 32 mana song and the constant requests to sing it because there is no buff icon for it

but seriously, one charm target like a gypsy in mistmoore or a mist golem in com and bards just loose all viability

WAIT! You are about to say Bards can be the jack of all, but master at none!
But thats the problem. 10% haste at level 10? 20% haste at level 37? 30% haste at 50? your dots wont have a chance to tick more than once or twice. if the said bard was an enchanter they can do much better in all aspects of being worthy of a slot.
WAIT! You are about to say this game is so easy and-
Look, new server rushes brings out the worst in people, and there will be more people.
