Agnostic Dark elves start off non kill-on-sight to most good races, btw

this doesn't mean you can interact with the bank/venders, though

@Validez:

Even the end game raid content there is more about getting 25 other people who are commited to do the fight over and over. I'd equate difficulty on those heroic raids I did in Wrath to being a 60s high school class learning various dances :P.

Honestly I think a Human Magician is a good first character for someone who is completely new to Everquest. You guys telling him that Humans are a bad race or that Magicians are an easy class are speaking with the bias of a grizzled veteran. For someone with zero experience with EQ, the most important thing starting out is just learning the game itself, not how to maximize every pixel.

Magician is a very straightforward class with excellent solo capability, and being Human will allow him easy travel and banking, and will start him right next to EC, which makes all sorts of help easily available to him. With a Human Mage he can learn the mechanics of the game and other basic knowledge (i.e. how to navigate around, the roles and mechanics of different classes while grouping, general combat tactics, etc...) Once he has a basic understanding of how the game works (which should be by level 10 or 12) he can then decide which classes are most appealing to him if he wants to re-roll.

The other starting class I would recommend is a Human Druid, for similar reasons.

Ok Got it fixed, IGN is Drish incase anyone wants to chat

Druid as a starter class is a very good idea, as you can use it to farm some easy cash through a variety of means as well. Plus, you don't have to worry about figuring out Research on your first ever character. That may not matter to most people, but it was a big turn off back when I was a kid first playing EQ.

EQ raiding mechanically does not go much beyond Corner Tank/Spank until Gates of Discord. Even then, it never progresses to the level of involvement of post-BWL WoW. If boxxing were enabled, you'd have people running 6 characters here. EQ is just not a game that demands much from the player from a mechanics standpoint. Even during the more complicated EQ raids on live, good players were able to easily play 2-3 characters.

The argument of time = difficulty is pretty dumb.
