Sn the rarest class/race combo is gnome warriors.

But out of ranger, paladin, wizard, I'd say try a ranger ..they are fun and have a bunch of utilities you can utilize. I.e off tank, cc, harmonize for solo pulls,snare mobs that are fleeing, track. Dps is decent. Furthermore, if you get bored you can always get some distance an shoot arrows an shit lol. You'll also get plane geared really fast if your a raider cause usually theres only about 2 rangers per guild (if that) which is cool as hell imo .

I'm thinking thats what I'm going to play this time around when a new PVP server opens up lol. A ranger ripped my ass to shreds with his PoSky bow + Kunark Disc, was shooting me for 300s hiding in a bush somewhere in EJ haha

Windstriker is probably the hardest item in the game to get, GL.

He's not wrong. Taking multiple hybrids in a group has a significantly detrimental effect on experience. It is YOUR time playing, and if you're the group leader you can rightly make the choice not to have your time negatively affected by someone's class choice.

I've also grouped with 2 rangers and a bard in a group, and the experience gain was awful. People can play what they want, but shouldn't reasonably expect others to have to cater to their choice.

Finally got my Ogre SK to level 9. Having spells/pet makes a huge difference. Hand my pet a halberd and life just got way easier. I may still start another character, so thank you for all the ideas. I did do a count of each and every race/class combination which I will post later if I have the time. In general, any class that cannot bind themselves were the least played, hybrid penalty did not seem to make a huge difference on counts. Top 5 played were Druid, Necro, Enchanter, Shaman, Magician I believe in that order, will confirm tonight when I look at my data.

It's been that since the server opened; Teal too. You might note those are also closely aligned with the classes that have high solo-ability.

As opposed to people who call others "toxic".

[Dolalin]

Wizards are the most viable unpopular class, since they can solo most effectively, and they are needed in the end game.

SKs and Rangers can sort of solo, SKs better than Rangers, but you aren't really *needed* in the end game the same way wizards are.

Paladins are popular alts bc of Ghoulbanes cheapness n Guise

If you want a rare class / race combo should do something like Wood Elf or Gnome warrior

you already have a hybrid

My very first character ever (back when EQ first came out) was a Wood Elf Warrior. It was horrible!! Don't do that to yourself.
