What will be your primary class on Green, considering the Classic changes?

"I have to strongly recommend not going high elf paladin unless you already know what you're in for. With a base strength of fucking 65, it's a nightmare. A set of small bronze armor weighs 64.7. Ghoulbane is 9.5. Mithril 2h is 8.5. You'd need to pour all your points into strength in order to even carry your gear+bags, and you won't be able to loot anything. It's a terrible idea for a first char on a fresh server. I mean borderline unplayable. If you really want Tunare and infravision, go half-elf and save yourself months of agony and regret. High elf paladin is the kind of thing you can do as a twink alt a year down the line."

While I do agree with you, I have to play devil's advocate here. I rolled an erudite paladin on Red99 when it first went live and it was incredibly fun. I was the only tank in my guild, and for me twinking just absolutely kills this game. I love doing everything on one character. Making friends, joining a guild and playing from 1-50 with no help from high-level alts is what Everquest is all about for me. Playing an erudite paladin on red was a tough climb, but it was 100% worth it.

So, I say play what you want. You'll have a lot more fun than grinding from 1-50 with a class you don't really like just so you can come back and play the class you really want to play later.
