Bard + Shadow Knight + _____ + ____

[Scavrefamn]

Warrior + Warrior ftw!


No but seriously, Shaman and Monk would be very solid choices.

thanks again everyone [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

now, hopefully my friend will be willing to do a shaman or monk!

[mreynert]

Definitely go with a Troll/Iksar Shaman, and a Ranger, yeah!

Shadow Knight, Bard, Cleric, Druid

if ports aren't important, substitute Monk for Druid.

With these 4 you should be able to handle many single group camps in the game as you level.

Wizards suck in traditional groups. Period.

SK won't work out in the long run. Your friend will be level 20 and the others will be level 30 +. Pallys and SK's drop out the most in P1999 because of the Hybrid penality. Maybe a Warrior better choise. Penality sucks on here.

A tank needs to be the highest level toon in the group to work good. They can't hit a red con to them to save their ass. So the SK will always be behind level wise. Not good.

i thought the 40% or what ever hybrid penalty gets split between all members o the group allowing the SK to level at the same rate

In theory, yes.

[fischsemmel]

Eh. Bard has a 40% penalty, and an iksar monk is about that also. They won't be leveling very much faster than a 60+% penalty on a large-race SK.

Besides, the bard can just catch up anyone who needs it by playing for 1 extra hour and doing an AE kite in OT. At level 30+ you can pull 100 mobs in 20-30 minutes, kill them in another 10-20 minutes, and have earned two whole levels if the bard is solo.

[webrunner5]

Yeah if everyone groups together for all the time they will all be pretty even. But you know they all will solo or be in other groups at times. The SK will fall behind. Yes the Bard has a 40% penality also, but solo he can easily make that up over the SK.
