Hello everyone,
I started EQ back in 2000 and played up until 2004 when I hit that college age and partying became more important . I started out with an SK and leveled him to about 20 then.... I watched LOTR and thanks to Aragon and Legolas I fell in love with the Ranger. I played him until level 68 and called it quits.
Now that my kids are older, and I have some more time on my hands I have been trying to fill that time with some games. I haven't really ever found another game that just "hit right" since I quit EQ. Recently, I discovered RedGuides and discovered how amazingly awesome MQ2 is now (My friends and I used it way back when to play each others toons when we couldn't play) and decided to pick it back up. I rolled up a few new accounts on Test and have successfully brought a 6box up to level 25.
Since 25 is the cut off for /testbuff I have some decisions to make... Continue with my current crew or /testbuff some replacements. I just wanted to spark up a little discussions and see what you awesome peeps think!
My Current line up is:
SK, Main tank (I might test buff my original SK over and replace him out just stinks I will lose all my Defiant armor)
CLR - Healer Dude
SHM - Buffs, backup healer, haste
BER- DPS Dude
ENC- CC and buffs
ROG- DPS
I believe I am happy with the SK, CLR, BER, SHM as my main core. What I am torn on is the ROG and Chanter.
The rogue is filling what I believe is a straight up DPS roll. I was curious if I should keep him around or possibly replace him out with another BER or maybe go caster with a Mage. From what I have read they seem to be the two highest DPS in the game.
For the last position I had reserved for Crowd Control. Should I stick with the ENC or would a Bard serve me better?
Thanks in advance for all your wisdom!
