No alts, one character only.

If i'm starting from scratch, Enchanter. If i'm choosing between my own characters, my monk.

I’m sticking paladin. I started off very casual (not even grouping) wanting an underdog class; as weird and rare as possible so went with an erudite and promptly bought a shield of the stalwart seas. Was surprised how solo capable and handy it was for teamwork later. I had a sk on live and loved that too.

For me being a less popular class is actually a huge draw. I have a 59 shaman and almost no desire to play it. Go figure, I’d rather struggle to kill greens than solo dragons [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

PS: loving my 56 mage at the moment. This poll might cement that.

I think for me it'd have to be Monk.

I love enchanter most, but gearing them is no fun at all IMO. I think they are basically BIS by level 45 on their own, and everything else is a diminishing return bonus.

But monks want gear all the way to the end of velious, and they feel like melee enchanters to me half the time, manipulating the mechanics to cheat/break the game and get the phat lewts.

So its got a bit of both of the things I love, loot & utility.

Maybe an SK or Paly though, because they look magical and I might envy that magical look dressed in the hodge podge of graphics a monk has to work with. Although human/de BIS kunark monks look coooool except for the no glove graphic (puke!)

Necromancer:
Fun to play in raids, group, and solo. Easy to gear can rez myself etc.

[Ennewi]

Chose bard for versatility. One play session can vary greatly from the next, with several overlapping roles to fill across all but the earliest levels, depending on the zone layout and group makeup.

Not a long list of definitive gear upgrades beyond lute, drum, and epic, but it does have the most options to be preoccupied with in terms of fashionquest, having access to all armor types and numerous race illusion masks to achieve the right look. Receives OT hammer for the price of a single jade. Able to pass through Siren's Grotto unmolested. No one asks for buffs or mistakes you for another class that buffs, and yet most everyone wants you in their group.

It would have been a nice finishing touch to the class if instruments were also craftable, but then the original devs likely would have made each capable of breaking, like fishing poles, and if not that than needing to be restringed (along with bows) and then tuned. A little too immersive maybe.

Troll SK (Inny). Last played on live and I liked the class, but never rolled on P99. Thought it would be cool to do some cool stuff like solo bust into hate/fear and find a little spot to pull and kill a few mobs to and be a badass. Seems a pretty diverse class and I don't care much for raiding.

Troll SK is a good choice cus its a long hard road.

For 1 character, I think the longest, hardest road is ideal.

I would go druid if I had a manastone

-heals
-travel
-dots/nukes

cant use manastone in new worlds? no problem

just port to WC ring, use it, and gate back

I like a lot of classes and really don't know.

But I picked druid.

Shaman and Necro second choices. Being a normal solo class means I can enjoy the game in a lot of ways. Druid won because I can give skin like nature to noobs and make them win at life for long play times.

Cleric also on the list

But so are all melees especially hybrids. Paladin, SK, Ranger, Rogue, Warrior, Monk

I like all the classes quite a bit.
