![]() Hey Guys,
I'm debating between creating a Rogue and a Necro. I'm not particularly concerned with leveling at the fastest rate possible. My goal in coming back to EQ after such a long layoff is to get to really experience the world and explore zones and places I didn't go to before. I've narrowed my selections down to either a Rogue or a Necromancer, and I need some help deciding which to go with. Here's how I've broken it down for myself Rogue -Pros -- Sneak Hide (Corpse runs, and dangerous exploring sound SUPER fun) -- Pick Locks (I like the idea of having such a unique skill) -- More well liked by NPCs (Can experience more of the Good Aligned content) -- Strong Addition to Group -- I just plain like the roleplay flavor of a rogue. -- Somewhat Rare -- Make Money easily -Neutral --No Magic (I find Magic to be both a pro and a con. I like the simplicity of not having to deal with Magic, but I also like the utility it brings) -Cons -- Terrible Soloers (I like to have soloing as a viable option because my play time will likely be sporadic) -- Limited utility (They get some unique skills that intrigue me, but is this character going to get repetitive and dull?) Necromancer -Pros -- Can solo like the dickens -- Useful in Groups -- High Survivability -- Very Intriguing Spell set (I loved playing a Necromancer in Diablo 2, and some of the concepts are similar here) -- Utility (These guys sound like they can do so much) -- Evil (Get to experience evil content, and Evil gear can look pretty awesome) -Neutral -- Magic (like above, I like the utility of magic, and also the simplicity of not having to deal with it) -Cons -- Evil (will not get to experience some of the "good" faction content -- Sounds like there are gazillions of these guys running around on the server (I want to be at least kind of unique) -- I don't want to play just a Grind-a-thon, and I've heard alot of Necros end up this way -- Generally disliked (Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but there seems to be alot of negativity towards people that play Necros on the forums. I don't want to be a "loner jerk" as it were) Races I'll choose: Necro - Erudite Rogue - Dwarf, Half Elf, or maybe Wood Elf I'm not interested in playing two characters, because I know I'll get stuck in the character hopping cycle I did back when I played EQ before... this meant that I played alot of the same lower level content over and over. So, given my unique goals in playing the game (experiencing lots of zones, quests, unique locations) which of these characters do you think will be the most enjoyable for me? Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks, -Alex | ||
