Recommendation Needed: Ogre Shaman or Iksar Necro!

[Faywind]

I've been around P99 for a bit now but I seem to be a bit of an "alt-oholic".

I'm trying to find a class to play that I will continue to play past level 20.

Current Classes I've played and haven't really liked too much:
Enchanter, Druid, Mage, Paladin, Ranger

I currently play very casually. Usually a couple nights a week (2 hour sessions) and on weekends. So typically I don't have time much for groups so I will mainly play solo.

Which do you think would work better for me? Shaman or Necro? I can't seem to decide between the 2.

Thanks in advance!

(I have a few thousand plat to spend as well on minor twinkage)

i say try both, and see what you have the most fun with =) if you were trying to decide between 4 or 5 class's and were just having a hard time i could see not trying them all, but for only 2, i would take each to level 20 and see which you like best to surpass =D

Idk about other people.. but when i can't make up my mind in a game i stick to 2 or 3 classes then play each one a couple levels at a time (don't wait till you're bored of that class).

Eventually you will start to like one more than the others and thats your class ;p

Either one will be a lot of fun solo. The Necro will be pretty powerful and efficient from level 12 or so. The Shaman doesn't really come into its own until 24 at least (mine dinged 24 this morning, and the addition of regen/canni is very welcome and makes soloing quite a bit faster).

The Shaman is more gear-dependent (though still not to the degree of a Monk or Warrior, for example) so your twink dollars will make more of a difference there.
