What will be your primary class on Green, considering the Classic changes?
 

Now that most of the Classic changes have been announced and tested on the beta server (e.g. darkness, class abilities, UI overhaul, etc.), which class will you play as your primary character on Green?

This new poll is being created about one week prior to the release of Green to provide an updated sample of the server's potential population. It may be interesting to see how the new results compare to the previous poll (Link) now that people have had more time to consider the Classic changes being implemented.

As of 10/17/2019, out of 663 votes, the original poll's results were:

Bard 53 (7.99%)

Cleric 57 (8.60%)

Druid 82 (12.37%)

Enchanter 87 (13.12%)

Magician 43 (6.49%)

Monk 28 (4.22%)

Necromancer 43 (6.49%)

Paladin 35 (5.28%)

Ranger 39 (5.88%)

Rogue 28 (4.22%)

Shadow Knight 29 (4.37%)

Shaman 67 (10.11%)

Warrior 33 (4.98%)

Wizard 39 (5.88%)

Waiting still to see final notes before I 100% commit, but did have fun playing Rogue on test.

Will also say that it seemed to be 30+% of the server play-tested Magician, so the poll isn't accurate in that regard!

Yeah, that is true. The poll's accuracy is likely to be askew for the general population since most players don't use the forums. Still, I think it will be interesting to see how the forum-users vote.

I don't think that beta class distribution is really that relevant. Population is very low. grouping not super easy. Mage is the most OP class. Mage can solo. If you want to test:
1. High level content
2. tradeskills (require plat)
and lots of other things, mage is just the quickest way to test.

In other words, not everyone is trying to do a "test run" of their main character, many people are testing quests/items/mobs, using the most efficient class available.

I have a feeling that Green will now be all Necromancers, Magicians, Enchanters, Druids and Shamans.

I no longer have that warm feeling I had last month. There has been too much time to think and min max and now no one is going to want to play any of the classes that need groups to survive..

And being that EverQuest was all about grouping, so goes the feeling and experience.

Me luV TRL SK siMulatoR 1999 wiTh freNdS

I go DE SK, testing him but just got the pet and had no time to relog since then and go into further testing.

Still in Love with Dwarf Pally not sure bout that.

I like to have a pet and those necro spells.
Also SK because there were only a very few (always like DE SK).

DE Wizzi is still 2nd choice.

Public polls are dumb tho :(

But probably Wizard. Or Rogue. Or Paladin?
Still not sure. I will vote the day of the Canadian elections.

We shouldn't be using the green beta population as an indicator of anything because it allows boxing and mages are one of the easiest classes to box along with the character that you actually want to play.

First Paladin!
