What is the best class?

I think shaman or monk are the two best classes.. They are both extremely powerful and very fun to gear.

An enchanter is so fucking OP its like, you get new gear and you think.. why do I care? I was already way overpowered.

Shaman is pretty much the obvious choice. Those saying Wizards are bad haven't grouped with a Wizard that has rend robe.

Class of '77 is obviously the best class. Now get off my lawn you smelly brats!

monk is lterally the s*hittiest class i've ever played, can't imagine why you would even try one. worthless.

My critera is what class is great at solo, raiding, and grouping. I think it is best to go by era -- because things change with each expansion.

Original EQ: Mage

Mage pets are ridiculously op, and mages can level without gear. Mages basically ruin progression servers.

Kunark: Shaman

Shaman is Solo, Group, and Raid Gods. Hard to compete with a geared out torp shaman in Kunark.

Velious: Monk

Monks were extremely high dps, very tanky, and had great utility in Velious. Basically an OP class when extremely geared. It is debatable whether rogues can even out dps a perfectly geared monk.

Luclin: Ranger

Finally acknowledged as a DPS class, Trueshot allows Rangers to top the charts in raids. It is also possible to tank with a lot of Gear and AAs. On top of all that, Ranger spells provide a lot of utility. It is a very convenient class to solo farm with.

PoP: Druid

It's just too cool to be able to charm, complete heal, nuke as hard as mages, root rot, snare/kite, port and travel really well. This is an era where the hybrids because OP, and Druid has always been my favorite hybrid.

Don't forget AM3/EQ in luclin for rangers. trueshot they get in velious. Also I never considered Druid as hybrid class. I thought they fell under the priest category (clr/dru/shm)

Man, I need to drunk post more often.

But it shows, everyone also has/had this question, hence I asked it.
