Class distribution and Velious?

[slowpoke68]

New to P99 and am always interested in class distributions. Everyday for my first week I did /who all 40-60 to see what people were playing into the high levels. I did it mainly around prime time but a couple of days I did it during off hours to see if there was any huge difference.

What I came up with was:

1. Monk 439
2. Shaman 223
3. Cleric 213
4. Necro 202
5. Enchanter 191
6. Druid 138
7. Rogue 128
8. Magician 117
9. Bard 107
10. Warrior 106
11. Wizard 84
12. SK 83
13. Ranger 58
14. Paladin 49

Really interesting. One thing I was surprised by was the Druid population, you seem to see a lot, and at lower levels there are quite a few, but the closer you get to 60 the less there are.

I've continued on with certain classes I am interested in at just 60 and different level ranges.

Do you think this distribution will change radically with the release of Velious?
Do you think a lot of people will be rolling new toons when it releases, or will people mainly just play their 60s for awhile?

Always interesting to discuss and no better time than server outage [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
