What makes each class unique?

Me and a druid tracked him repeatedly and got us all cloaks too. And we didn't have to worry about dying once we caught him.

Rangers are a cool novelty and are generally my favorite class, but let's not oversell what their strengths are.

thats cool aaron and gratz on ur cloak's but since this is classic, ranger's are pretty much jsut a melee dps class with TAUNT. ive tanked majority of my exp groups even now at lvl 45. to say that rangers cant tank jsut goes to show you dont know that much about our favorite class.

Okay, you and Gintu both think rangers are tanks. That's cool. They're not tanks though.

That's not to say they can't tank if there are no other options, but they're not a tank class.

Pretty sure Druid had Tracking, even back in classic, it's just Ranger's always had that ability to sort their tracking window by con/etc, and could filter out things, while we Druids had to just scroll through the mess.

I could be wrong though.

Hey Karsten remember the time I tanked Phin on Tristin and we killed it and ported just as half of Heresy entered Kedge Keep? Good times...

I played a ranger in classic, druids didn't originally have tracking. It may have been given to them before Kunark even came out, but it was unique to rangers originally.

If I remember correctly Wizards did more DPS than Rogues in the original game but by Velious the rogue was top DPS and casters started to lag behind. I believe the order of DPS greatest to lowest in Velious was:

1. Rogue
2. Wizard
3. Necromancer
4. Magician
5. Monk

Not sure how the rest would follow
