Though sometimes isn't me on ;P
Perhaps a Midgard warrior then 
I dunno. Paladin I wanna play, since healing magic + all armor + most weapons is VERY tempting, but if most of my friends are Midgard I'll head there.
Trust me on this one

I dunno, Warriors in general are pretty pimp, but 0.0 ranged attack. Unless you spec thrown hammers/axes/whatever but that's a pretty good way into gimping your char in a hurry.

they aren't super fragile and aren't really limited. Overall a fun class in rvr.
Bad choice for a first character?
In my opinion, going Midgard on *most* servers is a bad choice for your first character, as most servers have a small Midgard population. If you were to be a Midgard melee I'd recommend a skald, the warrior and thane suck in RvR and berserker is only ok.
And paladins are no longer the gimp of the world once 1.53 hits. End regen is a *huge* boon to the class, and will help their RvR abilities a ton. They're definitely going to give every other melee a run for their money.
Well, I am calling them all fruits based upon the # of hibernians I have met, which is 1 (Lenalron), and he's the biggest fruit of them all. [ 09-22-2002: Message edited by: Khyron ]

Hey, I have one Hibbie alt too. Hibernia is oddly fun, but only if you have an alt there. Nice place to visit, but wouldn't wanna live there and stuff.
Healer is my bread and butter though. I have no (none, zip, zero) complaints about my class

Excellent If you're a Norse Seer, you HAVE to be a Healer
I'd cover my eyes, but then, it'd be hard to do anything else.
I have chars on:
Iseult Midgard
Bedevere Hibernia (Main)
Have one on Piper's Albion Server
might make a warrior or something on iseult, playing a runemaster atm
However, no one ever complains when a zerker is available to finish out a group. They do insane damage.

i love him so.
"oh, you're running away? no! slow down! and be hurt! twice! and mezzed! =)
i've got piles of gold sitting artound doing jack schitt.
i'm waiting for alchemy, but it seems that it's gunna be a bit. so i'd rather my money went to do something.

Khyron obviously shouldn't have said:
Ugh. You can't have different chars on different realms on a server? That bites.
Well consider the impact on RVR if you could:
People want to play on the winning team. People get bonuses for playing on the winning team.
The easiest way to do this is to make or have a character on the winning team already. The hard way to do it is to actually organize, fight, and make a winning team through RVR.
If people could do it the easy way without sacrificing all thier characters, why would anyone do it the hard way?
Everybody would swarm to the winning realms. Anyone even remotely interested in actually fighting back would become vastly outnumbered due to the huge volume of defectors.
The real reason has to do with crossteaming. Allowing persons to play in multiple realms on one server would make spying incredibly easy. Every once in awhile log on to the other realm and do a /who to check where people are. This already happens to an extent with secondary accounts and has really hurt the ability to raid for a couple realms on some servers.
Would you delete a 40+ character JUST because your realm was losing? Or would you rather fight for your realm with your 40 character and hopefully stem the tide?
Without distinct realm affiliation, RVR becomes completely meaningless.

Lancelot, for CBTao and I will get you in with an extremely good guild.

Me? Nah, I'd probably take the approach most people do out quit the character and go to another server, which is what most people seem to do. I know a good number of people who have deleted their level 50 characters just to start in another realm on that server though.
Khy, I'd offer for ya to come to Alb/Palomides where I'd set ya up with cash and a guild, but I don't play there as much these days.
A character you've invested large amounts of time in and haven't developed fully?
And if the realm you've deleted your character off of suddenly becomes the dominant realm, what then? Whups, you're fucked.
Wouldn't be so if multi-realm characters were allowed.

Sounds good. I REALLY wanna try my hand at being a Paladin I know they're kinda gimpy, but A) I like platemail, and B) Group buffs (Regen and stuff) are too tempting for me to pass up

Talk to CBTao about paladins. His is level 38 or something.
They're actually pretty impressive under the right circumstances.
Group regen, group armor, group attack, etc. I don't know EXACTLY what spells they get, only what I'm told
So six paladins grouped will have thier own block checks, plus the block checks of five other paladins.
They're veritably immune to melee.

pwnage
Of course, casters can still mop the floor, but then with the new armor that gets enchanted or whatever that people have been talking about, Paladins could potentially rock the field
BTW, I played a bit last night... Bajah helped me PL a bit to level 4, and I got my first rare drop, an Oiled Leather Belt that increased my Dex by 1
