Top 5 least played classes at 50th lvl are..

[guineapig]

Bumblebee appearance and barrel roll... These sound like good come backs to me.

What race is going to sound off next?

Erudites have the advantage of being able to laugh at melees who were left on Toxx because they stiffed a druid...

I know some might disagree with this, but my experience is that necromancers are one of the least "truly" played classes at lvl50. There are lots of alt and farming necros on the server, but in most guilds I have seen few ppl actually playing a necro as their "main" once they get to 50.

Sub 50, there are a hella ton of necros.

[Combo]

Rangers: Because we know now.
Bards: Because (people think) they don't work right on this server.
Wizards: Because they're bad Mages.
Rogues: Because good f-ing luck leveling one.

Those are the four easy ones.

The fifth is apparently Paladins, which surprises me. Maybe it's the min/max nature of the server pushing people to SK/WAR/CLR?

Classes that are well-represented, but still underplayed:

-Tanks.
-Clerics.

Classes that are madly overpopulated:

-All INT casters (except Wizard). You have hindsight to thank for this one. Knowing how easy it is to get an INT caster to cap and how easy it is to farm with them means everyone wants one to fund their gear-dependent alt.

-Druids. This was just like in 99.

-Shaman. Again, you have hindsight to thank for this one. Shaman seemed rare in 99, now I see them everywhere. Why? Because the word got out that Shaman could solo Kunark. Plus, you live under the illusion you'll be needed in groups (they just want you to heal, and you're bad at it).

What is wrong wizards? Except they kinda weak in the beginning with no pet, but later on they ok. Unless people just dont wanna tough it out the first few lvls and pick easy mode with a mage. Just dont see why wizards arent played as much.

Unfortunately this is a result of playing a Classic Emu.

Everyone has detailed knowledge of each class's strengths and weaknesses long before trying them out. Most people simply aren't willing to shell out the time and effort to level these 'under-performers' to 50.

Of course, some people are already prepping for Kunark, leveling those classes to switch to once it gets patched in.

Too many fair-weather players.

[karsten]

well let's count em then:

mugwy
kinburt
karsten
ektar (can't spell karsten without EKTAR!)
elaida
virtuosos
barthorn
joan (?)
devil's pally (?)

other names highly appreciated, I'm curious!

Yeh think easy mode is what people choose, and people scared of exps penalities. I think I will just pick a class I like and wont care about how hard it is. My titanium eq CDs hasnt got here yet, just waiting for it to come in the mail.
