Hey all,
Played EQ back in the day and loved it so I'm back to do it all over again. I know I'd like to start with a pure caster but I'm looking for some opinions on which pure caster class would be best to re-learn the game.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] |
necromancer is the easiest to solo 1-60 and is the most independent class. Almost no benefit to interacting with other players, as far as leveling efficiency. At higher levels in some dungeons, groups will want them as a DPS class for their ability to charm the undead...once you get to the raid scene your only roles would be to cast DMF on people and act as a backup mana pool for clerics ...and summon corpses
magician is easy to solo 1-50 but then 50-60 is much harder...once you get to the raid scene your only role is to CoTH people through dungeons and provide a few summoned items such as mod rods and haste masks etc etc
enchanters solo well and they are also one of the most (if not the most) highly sought after group classes because they are the best DPS and crowd control for groups at higher levels and their buffs are invaluable for the efficiency of the group. probably the most advanced of the int caster classes.
wizard is tedious to solo and undesirable for groups, stereotypes about chronic afk...the ability to teleport is very cool though.
enchanter or necromancer are the best to start with in my opinion. Even though they are harder to play than wizard and mage, I think choosing either will maximize the likelihood that your character hits 60 eventually.
If you pick an enchanter put 25 points into charisma and 5 points into intelligence
