Hello! Testing Forum Settings. Downloading EQ titanium Now, my gold version didn't work. Got to chat with some of you on IRC. Look forward to trying this out!

I Played EQ 1 since Beta. Haven't played in over 3 years (stopped playing EQ 2 just a year ago though). Looking forward to playing casually and leveling a character or two up.

I was first 50 rogue on Xegony, Halfling before Kunark came out. Man Bone razor was sweet back then off of Dracoliche, had the only one on the server, never could get that dang Fang Skull Stilleto (was so legendary back then, 12 damage piercer!)

Moved to Lanys T'vyl (Seventh Hammer) and got a Necro up to 65 with 220 AA (that was something back then!), played in a big end game guild called Conquest. Eventually joined some other high end guilds after Conquest.

Played a monk up to 58 during that time, Iksar.

Wife and I Duo'd Guardian and Mystic in EQ2 to lvl 70 (70 Armorer and 70 Provisioner too). I eventually became a guild leader and her the main tank for Kingdom of Sky raids! She was great! She doesn't play games anymore though. =/

So, deciding on what class to try. Id like to pick one to be my main, for grouping raids etc, and the other to be backup just for when i cant find a group etc. Thinking Chanter and Druid with Druid man, or Ranger Druid. Was looknig forward to doing a melee class, but i heard you guys are low on chanters as Mains, is this true?

Any suggestions are welcome, i have no preference, I have played all classes. I am looking more for that old nostalgic EQ feel. Not the content and lore, but the community and simpler refined game experience. Here to make friends not win uber lewtz =P Spent 7 years doing that haha!

Nice to meet you all!
 
Welcome to SoD and hopfully you'll find the enjoyment here that you seek. As for characters, there are several threads throughout the forums about how many of each class is currently on the server.
I would suggest logging in a newb of whatever class and doing /who for the lvl ranges to get a feel for how many people are in each lvl block and what class's there are out there.
As for enc in higher end, it depends on the guild to be honost. Some guilds have more then enough while some might just be recruiting.
Check out the guild threads and look at the websites and ask around.
I choose my main because a guild from my live server played here and needed a class I knew and loved.
Hope to hear more from you
 
The problem with asking what classes are needed at the high-end is that by the time you get 65 w/AAs we just might not need you anymore. Your best bet is to pick something YOU enjoy playing, although if you're looking to join an established raiding guild I wouldn't main a tanking class, just because there's so much less room for redundancy in that area for raid makeup.

The deal with chanters is that good ones are always in demand, but if your group doesn't need/want CC you're a buff bot/wasted group slot. Plus, there's more shitty enchanters than good ones, picking a random one can be more of a detriment than a benefit to a group. I mean, I have info for 3 high-end enchanters, but finding someone to play one of them well when its necessary can be iffy, and if it's not necessary we could slap in more dps in that slot and kill much faster.

If you're looking for an effective duo, I recommend one of them be a healer, beyond that you can pretty much go nuts.
