People on Project 1999 are much more knowledgeable about which classes are "good" and which are "bad". Thus you will see a lot more Bards/Shaman/Necromancers/Enchanters and a lot less Rangers/Wizards/Mages/Paladins than on live.

NP ... and as a Shaman myself (with Ranger and Mage alts), let me just say that you shouldn't let that stop you from playing whatever class you want. Even if you pick a popular class you'll still be able to find groups/guilds/loots, and the same is true even if you pick an unpopular class. It might be a little harder to get a guild as a popular class, or to get a group as an unpopular one, but it certainly is doable.

I think lack of groups is causing more solo friendly classes to be more abundant. I started off a Dwarf Cleric but the leveling is BRUTAL.

I started a barb shaman.

^^ This.

I went 50 lvls as a warrior and finally started another character too.
Most of the people I leveled up with are gone or did the same thing, rerolled.

I admire your tenacity getting a warrior to level 50! I don't want to solo a priest up to that level. The whole point of playing a cleric is to heal groups. There are just so few low level people running around it's impossible to find a group.

I'm keeping my dwarf cleric for now at level 9. Hopefully there will a surge of newer people at some point and I can get some grouping done and level him up.

Do not despair my new friend as the weekends bring a larger surge of players to group up with. What your characters name? If I hop in game tonite maybe we can group up if I have someone in your lvl range =D

Don't forget if you roll a cleric you're also a great undead wizard too, check out the "Guides" section of the wiki for some tips on going from 1-50 solo as a cleric [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
