Allowing myself to be drawn in an argument here but I'll explain my logic.
If you don't like it, don't follow it.

I suggest straight melee as first characters for logical reasons.
Level 1 Warrior, more hp and ac than a Cleric. Also has better DPS
than Cleric even if its just kick.
Take that Warrior, run around a newbie area, learn how to target, attack,
kill, and loot mobs.
Same cleric, being new would be without any spells except the basic hp
buff and heal.
Ever try to level a brand new cleric in gfay and get owned by a level 2 orc pawn?
A brand new warrior will hold up better and doesn't take the same down time
rememorizing spells. If he dies he respawns and is back to full hp.
This is about learning how to play the game, not the long term of what
class he would really want to play. That is a different subject
