Might want to read What you like thread. Same question a few days ago.

Umm, Nevermind, you're the one who started the other thread. :D

And my suggestion, is try them out. You never know till you actually play one whether you're going to like it or not. An example, I made a shaman to make potions and really enjoyed it. One of my top 4 classes to play now, eventhough I doubted I'd like it much at all before making one, since I prefer melee classes and haven't like Clr or Dru.

Personally, I like Bard, 'cause they're busy, melee, and great asset to any group.

Beastlords are great due to versatility in tactics and play style.

Clerics are boring to me for group play, and I've not been able to play one long enough to get to raid level, where it would actual be fun and challenging.

Druids are versatile also, but I generally don't like to solo that much, and grouping when healing is too much like a cleric.

Enchanters are challenging, very unique in their role.

Magician not sure if I'd like or not, as I haven't tried one yet. Pet is appealing, but their role is pretty limited as are their tactics.

Monks are great, with superb melee skills, great avoidance, feign death, and others.

Necros are prob fun, but never tried one. They look challenging and definitely are versatile with huge equipment independent dps.

Paladin I didn't really like due to lack of versatility, but their Stuns and heals are great, and a bit more challenging for tanking than their SK counterpart due to fewer and lower aggro spells.

Rangers are great due to their versatility and utility.

Rogues are great for melee dps and valuable utility.

Shadowknights are great with lots of aggro spells, group buffs via taps, and Feign Death.

Shamans are great because they are busy and can play several roles, and have pet.

Warriors are great, but very equipment dependent. I've never played to higher levels, so I'll stop at that.

Wizards are fun, but pretty much only a single role.

i love my cleric, and I solo him alot. We destroy undead (currently working Veksar now) and we get root and pacify to be able to split pulls.

And of course, we are great in groups.

I think your personality and play style will make this call.


Do you want to be the meatshield bravely facing oncoming hordes bent on destroying your groupmates? Fighting to the bitter end. Laughing in the face of death. Laying down your life for the benefit of all Norrath.

Do you want to be a priest type that keeps everyone alive and fighting? The helping hand to lift up the downtrodden. The light leading to salvation.

Do you want to be a merciless killer laying out massive dps? The nuking / stabbing / hacking / slashing master of mayhem. The certain knowledge that death awaits anyone foolish enough to mess with you and your group.

Do you want to be the group go-to for a variety of things? The handyman that can do a little bit of everything. The versatile puller / tanker / buffer / scout / crowd controller that means you don't need 3 other classes in group.

Do you want to be self-sufficient? The soloer that needs no one but can group with anyone. The group of one that stands alone and asks for nothing but what they can take themselves.


Generally every class fits into one of those categories, but most classes can fit into more than one. A player with style and imagination can make characters do things you would never expect from that class.

Are you a fidgetty type that has to be doing something all the time? Are you the calm, methodical type? Are you prone to afk and distractions? These things need to be considered to determine what you would find appealing and keep your interest.


I will now respond to your question and request.
What would I recommend for someeone that can't figure out what to pick? Everything. Seriously, I can't answer that question without knowing more about you.
Tell me why you like your favorite class. I don't have a favorite class, but I like some more than others. Rogue is very active melee fun. Swapping out weapons, evading agro, scouting unknown territory, desperately trying to get agro off of casters, and massive dps is just very satisfying. Enchanter was the most challenging to master. It would seem simple to play an enchanter, but it takes a lot of experience and training to get the most out of one. That can be said of most any class though. The more you know and the more you experiment and push yourself, the more you'll find that every class should be nerfed because masterful players can always do extraordinar things.

Paladin I didn't really like due to lack of versatility, but their Stuns and heals are great, and a bit more challenging for tanking than their SK counterpart due to fewer and lower aggro spells.


You're kidding right?
