Shaman needs to be up with chanter and necro for solo. Druid is 4th best soloer at best behind those, unless maybe it's a situation where druid can charm safely but necro cannot charm.

The assessment for what is "hard" to play doesn't make a lot of sense. Many classes can be played "next level". Ranger and cleric are great examples... a really good player can do a decent job as puller/CCer with either of those.

SK being rated "hard"... not sure about that, aside from the sheer mathematical disadvantage of XP penalties. OP seems to be primarily comparing lower level solo abilities; putting Troll SK above ogre for overall power is just a silly idea. The regen will make soloing more viable, but if you get stunned when you're trying to FD you're gonna have a bad time. FD regen is great, but how often is that gonna be what makes/breaks an encounter?

Also... rogue DPS output rated as "reasonable" only? As a sustained DPS class the only competition is monk, and both are great sustained DPS. Excepting charm pets, obviously.

Necros can charm undead, like druids can charm animals, so necros still come up on top. Most of you here including the OP have laughable game knowledge, retreat to your corners and get better.

I think druid should be higher. There's a reason they are the most played class by far. Also, rogues higher. Decent sustained DPS, especially against magic-resistant mobs and situations where you can't have chanter pets. Rangers would be better if it weren't for the ridiculous xp penalties. Also warriors higher. Needed for tanking raid targets and tanks in general are needed for groups since no one plays them. Also, I'm not sure why necro shouldn't be in S tier and mage in A.

Rogues way more fun than you're making them out to be, my only gripe with that list though.

i cant imagine any way for a rogue to be fun, in all honesty

Paladin seems to be way underrated esp for grp content.
And rogue in F? Please.

Seems like this guy primarily geared the list towards how well he feels the classes solo (aka he’s used to modern mmos)

I concur, he weighs solo heavily for sure, but maybe not entirely.
