To be a glorious tank, paladin is your choice and soloable, though its not so perfect.

Halfling Druid.

It's like the game's easy mode. +5% XP bonus, hide, sneak, easy mode solo class, and come 29 you will learn the value of /a

Thanks for all the suggestions!

On a side note, I'm having trouble getting started tbh. I have tried a few classes and races. It's a real struggle so far and I feel completely lost. I spent 30 minutes simply trying to find the druid trainer to turn in that note for my first task.

Even with a printed out map I have issues finding my way around. I found ever other guild house but mine. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] The dwarf starting town was better as a paladin. Just getting out there to kill mobs was 50/50 live or die.

I love a good challenge and prefer to earn my way. It's always so much more rewarding then those games that hold your hand and give you the world. I figure I'm just going about it the wrong way. I'm an mmorpg vet and have played basically everything over the decades but I feel completely lost.

I really want to love this game and more than happy to put in the time and effort. Best part of a good game is the community. So, what am I doing wrong that makes me want to pull my hair out?

Suggestions?

i would suggest to pick one city to MEMORIZE. make it your base city/race. pick a race you want to actually be and then pick a class, the class hardly matters you have to know your race/city. then take your time getting to know the city and the noob yard. you dont need to make fast progress in this game just enjoy memorizing. find the level 1s and take it slow if you arent winning a fight run to the guards you will be learning skills in the first fights.

What solleks said is very true. Pick a race/class combo you feel good about and take your time to learn all you can about your city and starting area. The class mechanics will come without you even thinking too much about it. Just have fun and enjoy the journey!

It's kinda ironic that nearly every post where someone asks for suggestions on a class, everyone scares potential tanks away with the OMFG THE EXPERIENCE PENALTY!!! But then everyone complains there aren't any tanks. Back in 1999 I leveled up a Paladin AND a Shadow Knight and didn't think twice because I stayed off of the forums and didn't even know about the experience penalty.
