Ok I read the sticky at the top for returning players and didn't see this mentioned so hopefully this thread is OK.
Basically I am trying to find out, before I purchase the Anniversary edition tomorrow and start playing again, the best way to start playing from scratch. I originally started playing when Kunark was the only expansion and played off and on until around Planes of Power where I "quit" for good...until now.
Anyways, since the game is apparently devoid of almost all "true" newbies now, is it going to be pretty much solo playing up until 70+? I'm not playing with any friends like I was years ago and from what I've read online it's mostly about end game content and raiding now, and players like myself that don't have a handful of level 70's (80 it is now?) and thousands of platinum, seem to be few and far between
I'm going to be playing by myself since all the people I used to play with quit years ago, so I'm wondering if it would be best to start off with a Necro or something so I won't have a huge problem leveling solo. I played one until level 68 before, when 70 was the level cap, so I know the class fairly well.
However, if I am mistaken and there are still plenty of people around in the 20's, 30's, 40's, etc, to group with, then I won't worry about picking a class that can solo so much. That's pretty much what I am trying to find out and base what class to start out with from that. Thanks for the help!
