Necro or Cleric?
 

torn right now, starting fresh.

Necro is fast solo
Cleric is slow solo

Both can solo but cleric needs to med after using basically 100% of mana to kill a single mob.

Both are fine in groups.

Necro can really kill monsters more efficiently.

What do you want to do more?

If you expect to play for shorter bursts and not neccesarily get a good dungeon team going, I would go necro and be more productive during your play time.

These are my favorite classes in the game, maybe.

A group of 6 necros or clerics would be awesome either way, do you want to group more? Do you want to be able to heal melee players and keep them alive and grinding eternally? Go cleric.

DO u want to go down into the frenzy room by yourself and get a shiny fbss to put on your cleric? Go necro.

Necros are actually awesome for grps and doing stuff with other ppl, and I prefer to grp with necros over shamans and enchanters or druids on my cleric.

If red had more future I would put some quality casual hours in on my iksar necro hes so cool.

feeels i completely understand we have tho chose our worlds, and ways, wisely these days

Your server has lost many.. But it has gained Robert Oberst this year.. That's gotta mean something :)

Necros are amazingly self sufficient- while still being great (if not under appreciated) contributors to groups.
Clerics CAN solo... but much more down/med time between, and not greater than blue con mobs.

Necros are great for when your playing time is limited and/or sporadic. You can log on, play for awhile, soloing mobs wherever is open and log when your time availability is up.
Clerics are great for groups, but again- depending upon the amount of time you are able to commit, might take awhile to get a good exp grinding group rolling and then if time is up... you gotta log and that can bum out the entire group, if no replacement is readily available. That is up to you and your level of communication, and comfort in that kind of scenario.

Having played both, and never gotten to neckbeard/endgame levels, I can say that on the journey through the low/mid levels, Clerics get more random assistance from other peeps. (ie- free hand me down gear, deals on wis jewelry, consideration on nearby no drop stuff, etc.) I can't say I've ever been shunned on my Necro, but most folks know they are pretty self sufficient and can farm whatever they need for themselves... because they can! mmmuuuahahahaha

Those are my top two classes by far, and I enjoy splitting time between the two. Either way, you can't go wrong; really just determined by the amount of time you can commit to play each session, but primarily- your own personal preference. Play what you have the most fun playing!!!

Play an enchanter!!!!!!

needs some charisma and ac gear tho, they get smacked around pretty hard when charm breaks, obviosly enchanters can go after easy open world low con prey just like the rest of us, but thats not what being an enchanter is all about

necros pretty much can do the hardest stuff with just some hp rings and like 3 spells.

delete all chars and make a shaman
