Undecided - class decision
Played a lot of eq back in the good ol days from about kunark onward. I'm about to start playing with a few friends (warrior, cleric, rogue) but don't know what I want to start with them. I'll mainly be playing with them but also want some solo functionality. I've come down to Druid or Mage. Any help or opinions?
Any input is greatly appreciated! | ||

if it HAS to be between druid or mage in that make up, druid. dps/back up healing. Id personally go shaman tho. would work better with the war/rogue, youd still have back up heals, slow, stacking buffs with the clerics, some dps, and awesome dps boosting buffs for the rogue/war

Yeah, didn't really think of the shaman off hand. How well do they solo compared to Druid and Mage? I'll mostly be grouping but I know it's inevitable that I'll have to solo occasionally.

Shaman can solo at lower levels, although probably not as effectively as a mage or druid. However, shamans become arguably the best solo class in the game in kunark. They get a lot of weapons in kunark, most notably the torpor/canni combination which essentially gives them unlimited mana. I personally really enjoyed playing a shaman, but they can be frustrating at times. They're really a much better group class. Shaman + just about any melee is a terrific duo.

If it must be between druid and Mage then I think as a Druid you will be more useful for groups and youll have an easier time soloing. Though I know that Druids are a fairly popular class. Dunno if that matters to you or not.

Too many mages on the server as it is. Druids are more group friendly and more useful to your group of friends with ports/SoW. However, I'd also like to recommend Shaman over the other two options.

Thanks for all the advice. I think I'll be going Shaman as recommended. Now, my biggest issue is getting to Gfay with all my friends. Going to try to buy as many spells as possible then catch a port.
Thanks again for the help! | ||
