From what I hear, pretty unanimously, summoner.

I also hear good things about monks on the melee side.

What is ranger like? Like if you were to describe the class in eq terms.

I saw it has enchanters, can they not charm?

Some classes are larger departures from their EQ counterparts than others. Ranger is like 25% EQ ranger and 75% vanilla WoW hunter, simply by virtue of the fact that they have a more WoW-style arsenal of abilities to execute. You can track and forage like EQ. Combat is basically weaving in and out of melee/ranged. You have good sustained dps in either melee or ranged but do the most damage alternating between them. You have an ability that vaults you backwards and another that jumps you to the mob-- combat is very mobile, fast-paced.

The part that feels like EQ is that I'm usually pulling, using my bow, and plinking arrows at things all the way back to camp. Other than that, does it feel like an EQ ranger? Not so much. Feels more like a vanilla WoW-style hunter in an EQ-like world, which I am really enjoying. It also melts faces, and the item progression has been really fun. I've been making all my own bows. I had to explore into the next zone over to find an ash grove to cut down to make my upgraded bow.

Enchanters can't charm, not yet anyway.

This game is actually fun, there just isn't much game and past 20 there is even less. Makes progression somewhat linear for everyone bc there aren't many zones or camps to spread across.

I'm still waiting for its full release, tempting though it is. Did they have a timeline on that?
