New Player - need advice

[Plexiglas]

Hi all,

I haven't played EQ since way back in the day when I was still in middle school. I had leveled up a beast master to a pretty high level, but it's been so long I don't really remember anything about EQ.

I just finished instsalling and I've got two classes in mind, I'm torn between either a Cleric or a Bard. Could anyone give me some advice on these classes? What is more needed on this server? I'm assuming Cleric?

Thanks in advance for the help!
