Fresh Blood - Nec or SK?

[Von Sin]

...trying to choose a toon.
Haven't PVPed in fuckin ages so I'm wondering:
Can necros hold there own in PVP half as well as they can solo dumb NPCs?

I know rolling a naked nooblet sk would be a bitch at the start, but will it be worth it considering velious is around the corner and I hope to find some homies amongst the neckbeards on here to gear up with?

Would love to play a rogue on here but starting fresh and friendless that would just be fucking sadistic.
