Hi all,
I'm thinking about starting EQ2. I played EQ from Kunark through about 2.5 years ago. My favorite characters there were my Beastlord and Druid. My first EQ character was a ranger and that left my virtual mmorpg life traumatized so that I never want to waste time (no offense -- i understand they fixed rangers) on a class that was kind of lame at the time I played it.
I like classes that aren't totally gear-dependent, can solo well (i.e. kill quickly, efficiently, and take down mobs of hopefully equal level), and yet are still desired or at least not hated in groups and guilds.
So 2 questions:
#1: Which class do you think best fits that description currently?
#2: Do you gain experience so much faster in groups that it isn't really worth soloing much unless you just love to solo?
Thank you in advance for your opinions!
