Family Game? Class for kid

[Pookieson]

I think this is awesome. Great way to bring the family together around something that really is educating. I somewhat attribute my above average intelligence to learning the words in EQ at a young age (started around 11 in 2001). Critical thinking, tactics, support, team work, people skills(to some extent...). This game does loads for real world skills.

Im sure its too late, but i think maybe mage/monk and your sham would be a sick trio. mage is fun as hell if you are a newby to the game, and monk is simple enough to learn and be a beast. Sham great support for both. Good luck!

I fell into this boat too. I probably started tinkering with the game in 2000. I was about 9/10. My dad gave me my first character (an Enchanter) I probably played 1-10 and then he passed it back to me at like level 50 and I got myself to 60. I also leveled a Ranger from 1-50 primarily on my own (outside of some minor twink gear).

I can honestly say without rose tinted glasses that I was pretty solid Enchanter (in general and not just for my age). I think if you just have some patience and provide your kid with the right resources to succeed he can play any class as long as it's fun for them. I loved playing my Chanter even more than I enjoyed my Ranger.
