Help a Brother Out...

[Deathrydar]

PLEASE don't make me regret for reaching out to the community for help! If you feel like flaming or giving a smart ass remark, I beg of you to find one of my other troll-worthy threads and flame me there...

Now, I want to make a REAL come-back to the server. Hardcore! Donations, everything....just like I was at launch, but I cannot get "sucked in" the way I usually do. I want to enjoy the game again and concentrate on one character until level 40 or so!

I need help on what type of race/class I should play. Any will be fun to me. I like to be evil, more than good....I like to melee more than cast spells....and I like to group when I have the time. But that is where the problem lies......I need a race/class that I can solo with, but one that also brings a lot to a group setting when I have time to be online for a while.

I know mostly all of the classes.....probably played em all up to 12 or so at least. I know that doesn't mean I have actually "played" them, but I have the basic understanding on what I should be doing. Played an SK, Bard and Cleric past 60 on live.

So I ask you, the Project 1999 community, if you were in my shoes and had a real 9-5 job, two kids, a wife that is sometimes very "needy" and long periods of times where you wouldn't be able to log on, and on top of it all, training to get your black belt in Tang Soo Do, what race/class would you pick?

Thank you very much for all serious responses! I hope to be back in the game by tomorrow or Friday night at the latest!!! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Honestly if I were that busy I wouldn't play at all, but if you're determined to play anyway I'd choose an agnostic enchanter of any race you like. Can solo decently without being twinked, can go to any town without grinding faction (which you won't have time to do), and is always wanted in groups.

Monks are the only melee that can really solo effectively but you need a lot of plat to do it - especially considering that you will not be able to loot any mobs ever or suffer an AC penalty. A couple of backpacks full of bandages alone will put you at the weight limit if you have no coins and no gear.

yeah don't start playing imo. This is coming from a green belt in karate for what its worth.

Honestly your wife is VERY needy.
