I like paladin!
Yeah, this is EQ in one of its most brutal and satisfying forms.
It seems to me the best classes for soloing are not in super high demand for group spots. For me, I'd prefer to struggle a little bit on the solo if it means I can land a group more easily.
The grouping scene is good. Most dungeons are actually a bit overcamped, which is better than dungeons being a ghost town.
Paladins are sweet because they don't have such a hard time landing a group as a tank and when I solo, I just top myself off with heals or courage, then get back to it. I have to med every now and then, but I find it's a good break to go do a chore or make a cup of coffee. If you happen to get a Clarity, you can solo grind without stopping (but to heal).
Good luck!
p.s. beware -40% exp bonus
