Title: "Best class" Post by: twstd on April 27, 2010, 10:44:55 pm Hello, new to the server and noticed a large amount of mages. I'm a old EQ player and am interested in basically revisiting everything and killing raid bosses such as rallos, CT, etc. Is magician the best class to solo bosses or is there any other? Do we need to actually have a full blown raid to down bosses or just a small group? Sorry for the nooby question just wondering what the best way route would be for some boss killin.

If you want best solo class, go with a necro. Their 3.0 pets heal groups, and the fire blades from Casters Guild (CG for short) beef them up a bit. There arent really full blown raids until T3 (for most people, not Shy/ Crab =p) because T1 and T2 have been around long enough to make it 1 groupable. Mostly 1 to 2 groups for everything. Because of gear, old raid stuff in pretty trivial. So you can probably go back and solo alot of it after hitting up Qvic, Tacvi, etc. Boxing is a viable alternative to just solo necro'ing it up. Maybe a tank and cleric, toss in some DPS and you'll be like everyone else heh. Anyway, thats about the run down. In the Guide section Danyelle has a nice New Person thread you can check out. Answers alot of questions.

or if you could 6-box paladins, would be even better. I use Warrior/Cleric/Mage Pretty good.. will be even better when i get my CG pet on mage.

You will need a group of 6 of which 2 will need to be healers to keep up with healing. After you gain more gear/armor t1 will become trivial and you will then need 6-12 for t2 initially. As you gain gear/armor you can then do t2 with 2 warriors 2 clerics 2 DPS classes pretty easy.

(http://images.encyclopediadramatica.com/images/0/03/Advice_PleaseStop.jpg) Would be cool to see a group of paladins, but at the same time I pity them. I pity them so. Until they get their 3.0 epics, they'll be peddling in the alleys of the Nexus, begging and holding out their hands for scraps of paper and pages. WOE BE THE PLAYER WHO BOXES MANY PALADINS!

Maybe we should start a guild and call it the "Pleading Paladins" :P Title: Re: "Best class" Post by: Supreme on April 28, 2010, 10:57:54 am If hunter could put in a paladin aug that would make them "special" then it would revive the class=).
Title: Re: "Best class" Post by: Reed on April 28, 2010, 04:06:51 pm I would being out Cero again if an aug was made similar to Warrior's but with a Paladin flare to it
