Best combo

Shiner

Dalayan Beginner
Hi all. Just found out about this server and after several years away from EQ (not counting EQ2 as it was that bad) was well made up. I'm all patched up on mine and the wifes pc and ready to go. She wants to play a woodelf druid, like she had on the Tunare server, and i thought i'll go with a melee. Problem is i can't decide on what class its been that long. I've started a rogue but every new character and his dog seemed to be rogues. So my question is what melee class would work best with a druid and also what melee classes are in demand mid-high end game ? Thanks for ya input.
 
highest demand in the end-game: rogue

other than rogue, I really don't think you can go wrong with shadowknight. their aggro is really tough to beat and they have some really nice tricks. (e.g. FD, mez, debuffs)

KAS

With the druids sub par healing a warrior is probably your best option, almost zero utility aside from tanking, but the druid makes up for that.
 
Ranger cleric sure...ranger druid...dont know why you would want this combo. It would work to an extent but would make alot of skills redundant. If duoing, you want a mix of skills, some overlap sure, but not the amount of overlap you would get with ranger / druid.

Best duo (best meaning fast exp), is druid / chanter.
Best trio, ranger, cleric, enchanter. Almost nothing that trio cannot do.
 
I always thought warrior, cleric, enchanter was the best trio. And gotta say that shadowknight, shaman duo rocks you :)

Except triclienting will get all the characters involved banned!

Yes of course :)

It would be hard to tri-box this in an effective manner anyway, it comes into its own when played by three good players.

The holy trinity is good, but not the best, its very strong and takes alot to take it down, but suffers from low DPS, dangerous charming, and small utiility.

SK / Shaman is great, though again, low DPS makes it bad for exp, but good for taking down hard mobs.
 
Thx for all the advice guys. Think im gonna try out a SK as they have some useful spells and should be good to partner a druid outside or in dungeons. Did start a rogue but half the newbie zone were rogues so binned that idea.

Cya around on the server, my char is Shinko and the wifes is Megana. Thx again.
