Most desired classes in raids?

[Miikey722]

Thanks for the responses everyone. Very insightful for helping me make my big decision.

I’m interested in making a rogue, but I do have a question.

On the Daybreak forums, rogues are generally considered to be the worst class in the game for classic EQ? Is this because the classic EQ per Daybreak is different from the project 1999 classic EQ? Balances changes?

All melee classes are bad in classic. They get much better in kunark with better weapons, discs, weapon skills, longer fights, etc.

The gear doesn't exist in classic and is too rare in Kunark if you are looking to be top dps as a rogue.

You might feel a little underpowered, but if you make it to 50 before Kunark, and you ding 51 when Kunark drops, you'll quickly become a DPS kingpin. I wouldn't worry about current power level. Everyone knows how this story ends.

Mage and wiz destroy rogue raid target dps in Kunark as well.
