EQ2 - Favorite Class?

Canelek · Post by **Canelek** » October 11, 2007, 3:48 am

Especially for those that went a different direction than their EQ mains....

I am enjoying the piss out of playing a Brigand... only lvl 31, but I have spent a bunch of time leveling several different classes up to 20 or so... It reminds me much of the WoW rogue, but quicker and able to handle more mobs at one, even though swashys are better for aoe. I did try a SK (to 22) and while I did enjoy the SK, it was the same class as I played for YEARS in EQ--different or not, it was nice to go a different route.

I also enjoy the ass, warlock, bruiser, etc, but the brig seems to have stuck (for now). It was also really cool to have sylvos and siren mentor down to hang out for my first instance (RoV). There was some other foh person there and good times were had.

All in all, I am enjoying the piss out of eq2, and more specifically, as the brig... still early levels, but the exploring bit is bitchin. No way in hell will I have the time to play like I did in EQ, but that is the beauty of eq2--more like wow, but not so retardedly easy. I am in, I am out, I have good time and can dictate the game as opposed to it dictating me.

Just to preempt the quote:

I also enjoy the ass

I took my Wizard to 70, and have been enjoying all of my alts. I have a Monk and Coercer which I have stuck to most. I had really wanted to level my Guardian, but I felt like I never did any damage.

Melee spec warden is the first class I'll actually get to 70.
A fuck-ton of fun.

Dirge was my most fun to level.

Nothing...and I mean nothing beats a swash! Mez, tanking ability, AoE, taunts, detaunts, mass DPS, and PURE SEX!

I have my fury to level 70 as well now and just farming and stuff.....so if you want some mentorage for shit Cane, gimme a holla

Canelek · Post by **Canelek** » October 12, 2007, 11:25 am

Right on, that would be most bitchin'. Does your swashy look like Freddie Mercury?

Kilmoll the Sexy · Post by **Kilmoll the Sexy** » October 12, 2007, 12:07 pm

My swash looks just like Conan except he is a dwarf with black hair and does not wear the gay feathered hat. And he has a beard.....other than that...think Conan.

My swash is 70 and was fun as hell to play. Re-subbing as soon as Kunark comes out, can't wait!

Vaemas · Post by **Vaemas** » October 18, 2007, 2:04 pm

I have a hell of a lot of fun with my warden, but he's only 48. Of the characters I've leveled to 70, I'd probably lean toward my assassin over my conjurer over my shadowknight.

What's a good class that does a lot of damage with huge 2 handers but doesn't have to tank ever

Marbus · Post by **Marbus** » October 23, 2007, 12:17 am

I've got a 70 monk that I soloed 95% of the time, now that he is 70 with even better gear, half masters and half adept III and keep up with the DPS classes easily in DPS mode and tank instances in defensives stance with ease (HoF, Valdoons, OoB, Unrest etc...) I haven't tried fear year though...

I love the character... I also have a 40 something Guardian and Necro... both of which are a lot of fun as well. The Guardian was my first primary but couldn't do damage for shit... go INT spec... seems most guardians don't but I'm doing a shitload of damage now and of course can tank anything. The necro is almost as easy to solo as the Monk was.

I just started a Inky Fury to play with my Inky Dirge since I can 2 box now. I have a lot of friends with Furies. A DPS speced fury can heal and do some insane damage at 70. Looking forward to Kunark.

Peronally I haven't found one I don't like yet... I've never been a med blast person but even the wizard is pretty fun due to the damage.

A melee spec warden, mystic or inquisitor with a bigass hammer.

*~*stragi*~* · Post by ***~*stragi*~*** » October 24, 2007, 7:49 pm

is melee spec warden like a melee spec hunter in wow or is it actually good

miir · Post by **miir** » October 24, 2007, 9:24 pm

They pretty much own.
In instances with my very average gear, I can put up around 600 DPS as well as being the main healer.

i made a froglok swashbuckler named stragi
does eq2 have AA options? i selected the extreme quality selection but it looks kinda messy still

*~*stragi*~* · Post by ***~*stragi*~*** » October 25, 2007, 2:24 pm

also is there going to be an eq2 sebilis because hella tite if so

Kilmoll the Sexy · Post by **Kilmoll the Sexy** » October 25, 2007, 5:03 pm

yes...there will be a sebilis but I think it is going to be a raid zone

Canelek · Post by **Canelek** » October 25, 2007, 5:04 pm

Bah! I miss solocamping froggies as SK.

Hey Killmoll--whens you gonna mentor me???

Kilmoll the Sexy · Post by **Kilmoll the Sexy** » October 25, 2007, 5:08 pm

I have been busy crafting bitch! If I could ever remember your name I would send you some leet foods and drinks. I did manage to get faerin 3 levls in fallen gate...and then promptly pull about a 40 mob train over us that killed him so fast he could not even FD.

Canelek · Post by **Canelek** » October 25, 2007, 5:14 pm

Right on--talked to Faerin the other night, but have not had a chance to group with him... name's Cohonil... I actually do have a Canelek SK, but hes only 22, and I liked the brig better.

I did finally get a pickup group in RE--that was pretty fun!

*~*stragi*~* · Post by ***~*stragi*~*** » October 25, 2007, 7:48 pm

i'm level FIVE i got it killing goblins and then i got a goblin killing achievement thing and an undead one too

Canelek · Post by **Canelek** » October 25, 2007, 7:51 pm

Hurry to level 20--at least there is some decent content to work with, group-wise at that point.

Zygar_ Cthulhukin · Post by **Zygar_ Cthulhukin** » October 25, 2007, 11:13 pm

Hmmm, when I resub I might move to Guk, Zygar's a 70 swash/68 prov.

*~*stragi*~* · Post by ***~*stragi*~*** » October 31, 2007, 1:13 pm

I'm having a lot of fun with this game so far but finding a group to grind in a dungeon with is hard and I hate trying to grind in the outdoor zones

Kwonryu DragonFist · November 5, 2007, 11:24 pm

That's why ya should've started/moved to Permafrost Ivan Strago!

Always a group for ya there full of friends!

Yeah cause he's not with his guildmates on Guk?

Kwonryu DragonFist · Post by **Kwonryu DragonFist** » November 8, 2007, 3:13 pm

They never group with him!

Looks like he has a hard time getting a group.

Shove off, Sylvos. Kwon was just trying to be nice.

Canelek · Post by **Canelek** » November 9, 2007, 2:29 pm

I have my wizard up to 23. Was recently having an excellent time near CB blasting orc linked encounters.

Dregor Thule · Post by **Dregor Thule** » November 11, 2007, 4:49 pm

Don't roll a SK! Boring class! If you want to melee, go Bruiser. If you want to tank, go Guardian!

Canelek · Post by **Canelek** » November 11, 2007, 8:39 pm

SK actually seems pretty fun--although I kind of left mine at 23 when I had more fun with the Brig. Fae seems to like his SK, although I have not grouped with him in a while.

Dregor Thule · Post by **Dregor Thule** » November 11, 2007, 8:45 pm

Got mine up to 68. I found it to be pretty boring combat wise, but I sort of have a feeling that is mostly due to the combat system in EQ2 in general. I did enjoy my bruiser alt more, although he was only 12. Combat was not a strong point in that game for me. Doing the quests, getting the quest count up.. that was the best part IMO. I enjoyed the heritage quests, the collection and tome quests.. combat was just a necessary means to an end
