Topic: DAoC suggestions?

This weekend, I'm going to be able to get my hands back on my DAoC disks, and I'm going to be reinstalling it (especially since one of my parents is still paying for the account...oops).

Now, what is a good class? I'm looking for a class which is good at soloing, perferably. Any suggestions of fun classes are good though. Any realm is fine. I only have the Shrouded Isles expansion, and I won't be getting Atlantis for at least a little while.

Do any ECers still play DAoC? What realm? What server?

I haven't played in a while because I've been busy with school, but Im thinking of getting back in with my Thane.

If you want to be like everyone else, be an enchanter. Theres no variety and everyone looks the same I kid!

I haven't tried a Savage yet though, I hear they are really fun to play as in PvE.

I still play but not on any of the servers that are popular with ECers.. 50 pally on Alb Iseult, 50 Shaman Mid Galahad, and almost 50 Hero on Hib Bors.

As for classes that solo well, necro would be the first class that comes to mind. Second would be SM, even though they cant solo well, they can get groups quickly in Moderngrav once 40 or so. Maybe a mana chanter too.

I suppose by requesting a class that is good at soloing, I'm also asking for a class that is played by like 50% of the people in the realm, huh?

As an alternative, what are classes that are sought after for groups?

(Not sure whch way to go yet....)

Of course all the pet classes are good for soloing. I just rejoined a few days ago and I have a norseman warrior on Pellinor

The classes sought after in groups are the guys that destroy (troll warriors and berserkers for midgard) and guys that heal (healers, shamans, etc.)

Alb: Necromancer or Friar

Hib: Enchanter

Mid: No clue.

The bonedancer and spiritmaster are the soloing pet classes in Midgard, and since most people play Midgard to smash guys, there won't be many of them around. Even berserkers can solo to a certain degree, and warriors can solo ok if they have up to date equipment.

Bonedancer = very hard to kill

I play on Alb Lance

I kinda got distracted for a while with my new apartment and all.

But with New Frontiers, I'm gonna dedicate the majority of the weekend to DAoC.

I play every once in a while, mainly a 50 Hunter on Galahad... But i'm mainly just playing ffxi right now. If you like a challenge, play a full mana enchanter. Pet + pbaoe + massive groups of blue/green mobs, sometimes even con stuff = massive exp when played properly.

You might want to look into a warden for definite solo ability plus a group whenever you want it.
