hmmm, good q. well, it definatly does depend, and every class is well balanced when u compare, u just need to learn how to play it. But, as far a pve tank goes, sword/shield(S/s) pally, pve caster, NECRO! DUH, if you dont consider that a real caster, then i guess id have to say a sorc. best hybrid pve- by far a reaver. all though pallies are pve and hybrid, theyre a well known tank in all games, so thats why im gonna say a reaver cuz they gen chain armor and use whips, dots, and life taps, plus nice pbae debuffs. In rvr the best caster is a sorcerer. The best tank is a reaver, even tho its a hybrid, its still a tank. at lvl 50 leviathon pwns. But, all around, Im gonna have to say a minstrel. They get insta cast dd(2), mez/ae mez, stuns, speed, heal chant, hit fairly hard, can stealth(although its ****** stealth), can use a shield even tho u cant train in it, wear chain, get a very nice absorb buff, and if i left nething else plz say. Anyways, with a minstrel, what more is needed to be a succeses in rvr and pve?
