shaman duo?
 

ok so me and a buddy are starting alts up, he's making a shaman, and im torn.. i kind of want a tank(a melee) - any opinions on what would be best? - already know monk, looking at other options

Besides monk.. SK, Pally would probably be next. necro/ench/mage maybe? not sure how that would work

SK is the best "tank" combo with shaman.

Monk is the best general "melee" combo with shaman.

anyone have an opinion on the warrior?

It wouldn't be "bad," but pulling is a pain. SK and monk both have feign and other utility skills.

hybrid tax kills me

Very true. But if you go Ogre or troll - that will kill you too ;)

if you have feelings about what you feel like playing then go with that.

I remember playing back in the day and some people played what was really "good" or very demanded, but they simply didn't enjoy the game as much. Sure it's nice to be in demand and get a fast group, but what's the point if it's only half as fun?

I knew more than a couple people who simply quit the game or that character and went back to what they actually liked. When it's all said and done, the game is a grind so you may as well enjoy the grind!

If you are always duoing, you will split that penalty with your friend. It won't be so bad.
