If you could only have one character

[Eastwood]

What race/class would it be, why?

I've been thinking about this lately,

If the server had a one character per IP limit, and you couldn't have that druid as a utility alt, and that monk as a grief trainer, and that melee twink, how would you play the game?

Right now I'm playing a druid, but not as a primary character in mind, but as a character I can power level friends with, auction items and teleport around the world with, and farm with, as a utility character.

If I could have just one character, I think it would be a Warrior. The race is still a difficult one for me to chose.

[Jokesteve]

Easy.

Ogre SK, same as now

[Lonedrahon25]

Wood Elf bard. Duh

[crunknsa]

HIE Cleric...as in EQlive...as in P1999.

[Finawin]

I would go with an Iksar Shadowknight probably. Gets me a Greenmist

[Taluvill]

Either Iksar Necro or a Half Elf Druid. Probably the druid

[karsten]

iksar monk

[Arkanjil]

Erudite Paladin with a DE mask!

[mreynert]

Half Elf Bard, same as now and on live.

[Malrubius]

Chanter anything - lets me be any race (at least in appearance/faction) and go more places/do more quests.

[Aaron]

I've never played a necro, but I'm tempted to say Erudite necro. They've always appealed to me. But I've had a lot of fun playing my HIE Mage too, so it may be a toss-up.

[mitic]

wood elf/dark elf warrior since i would be unique...base-stats are obsolete as soon kunark opens

[Finawin]

Base stats are only "obsolete" as soon as you're raid equipped in Kunark.

[Hasbinbad]

Barbarian Rogue.
I played Dwarf for nostalgia, but the rumors of my insanity are true; I do have a barbarian rogue twink.

[Shurid]

I played a bard for years and found it to be the most appealing class IMO. Chant Kiting, Swarm Kiting and actively twisting songs in a group situations made for a great experience. Unfortunately I'm relatively new to the server and only have 1 char ATM, trying to get to 50 before I make some twinks, at which point I'm definitely making a bard.

[stormlord]

Druid. Great class. Solo capable. Considerable need in the community for ports, binds, sow ($$$).

[guineapig]

First choice is enchanter. We have the most control of any class in game and can go everywhere.

Second choice is Iksar necro. Since everyone already hates them I can pretty much kill with impunity (assuming quests are not a concern.)

[Ashintar]

Human Wizard. Same as I had back on Brell same as now :)

[Tallenn]

Druid. That has always been my primary class. Race doesn't really matter.

[Dabamf]

i'd be a shadowpriest because mindflay is awesome

err wait

[Ferok]

Base stats are only "obsolete" as soon as you're raid equipped in Kunark.

Sheesh, I don't even remember hitting the 255 stam/wis mark as a paladin until I was covered in NTOV.

[voydent]

dark elf necro without a doubt.

dark race
dark class

also.. the lv59 emissary of thule pet is really where the sweet spot is, imo...

second choice would be dark elf cleric.

[Jify]

Half Elf Bard 8D

[Otto]

hard decision..

Bard, don't give a shit what race. I'd get the halfling illusion mask and then be a halfling 24/7

[Reubin]

Cleric. Tough to decide between Dark Elf and Dwarf. I went with Dwarf on p1999 but I used to play a DE on live. I think I like Clerics so much because:

- Very exciting class to play at times. Also very laid back at other times. I usually describe it as long stretches of boredom followed by moments of sheer terror. Kind of like a soccer goalie.
- One of the easier classes to get groups with.
- Helping other people with rezzes/buffs. Allowing other healing classes to use their "fun" abilities.
- People tend to remember good clerics and want to remain in contact.
- Fits my laid back even keeled personality.

Really I've enjoyed every class I've played in EQ. Rangers and Bards would probably be my second choices.

[Sinlea]

Human monk. Female iksars look too stupid and im shallow. Iksar if it had a de mask though!

[Scrooge]

Gnome Enchanter, same as now. You can't go wrong with a class that's made to challenge your wits.

[nilbog]

If the prospective goal was to be the end of velious, I think I would choose Erudite Paladin.

Guise. Manastone. Palladius' Axe of Slaughter. Every known clicky. Shield of the Stalwart Seas. Only struggle is to compensate for lack of strength. Red Dragonscale Bp :D

Downsides: No BFG, Kerran Fishing Pole.

[Lonedrahon25]

Kerran Fishing Pole.

This here is truth.

With primal weapons you shouldn't be worried about strength even with that race/class combo.

[Uaellaen]

dark elf cleric ... all the way!

[Eternal-Elf]

When kunark comes out....Iksar Monk for sure. My first true character on EverQuest live. Loved it

[Simon Belmont]

iksar monk


Iksar Warrior!

[Poww]

Iksar monk! None of this fleshy business. When someone stabs me their weapon it should shatter on my scales and many tiny fragments shall go into their eyes.

[Tudana]

my 1st thought would be Human monk extraordinaire! (for something different)

my 2nd would be Barb female Warrior, same as on live.
(good warriors are a rare bred, same as monks)

[Takon]

Easy question:

Gnome monk... that would be sexy

but in reality, I'd probably rock a bard and get the Tinker's mask so I could be a gnome everywhere

[Excision Rottun]

Othmir Shaman, what what.

[Mordachai]

half-elf ranger!

survived through years of 'rangers suck', 'rez the ranger again', massive xp penalties, etc etc, and i wouldn't have it any other way!

[Vanech]

Iksar Monk

[Yiblaan]

i'd be a shadowpriest because mindflay is awesome

err wait

Heh well you'd be destroying all these EQ people!
