My one wish would be a Human Shaman.

Because Halflings were allowed Cleric, Warrior, and Druid, both ends of that hybrid scale, they were allowed to be Paladins and Rangers.

i get it and agree even if i dont necessarily agree with the final decisions... to me the key factor is time ... maybe live progression got that right in the sense of time and history/lore of how they became clerics/druids... (not really too familiar with it but the iksar shaman lore is what brings me to draw the comparison)...

am i wrong? didn't the iksar shaman develop out of years of... (this is what i cant remember and having a hard time finding relevant texts... i suspect its from my old kunark guide or something in-game, but...)

It's just arbitrary game design decisions.

Sure...and in the creation of a game, someone has to decide these things at some point. But with our beloved Everquest, one sometimes wonders if some of these decisions could have been made better. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] No?

Also, what would you guys say to Barbarian ranger?? I can see it.

Without these arbitrary design decisions the game would be bad, all these and the assorted lore is what makes EQ great

I could see Barbarian Druid or Ranger, really.

Why can't the server staff realize that the lack of gnome SKs/Paladins are tearing this server apart?!!?!? This thread is proof!! And I didn't even start it !!

Nomes I don't care about. Halfling Rangers? Abomination. Seriously, I will kill on sight.

Right, but there are no Gnome Clerics. Scientists of... Light? Life?

Sinzan Zizi is the most classic

Barbarians shouldn't be rogues.

fully agree

Artificial prohibitions on player choice are stupid. All hard race-class restrictions should be removed and replaced with meaningful in-game obstacles like the absence of trainers and lower starting factions for culturally unacceptable classes in starting cities. Could also be implemented as a class change system with the same elements. Lots of ways to do it and have it make sense rather than: THE LAWS OF THE UNIVERSE PRECLUDE THE POSSIBILITY OF ERUDITE BARDS, GNOME MONKS AND OGRE DRUIDS.

I think class restrictions should be lifted for very select choices.

Of course, I also think it would be neat if Vah Shir were added in, but spawned in human cities or something, but that'll never happen.
