Coming back and looking for advise

[Synith]

Hey Everyone,

I'm another one of these numpties that gave up playing this game for whatever reason and realised there isn't any better games out there. I'm looking for advise on what to play again. Not 100% sure what I'm wanting to play, all the classes are fun in their own way. I have a few characters in their 60's nothing too high, (left a looong time ago) and wanting to start fresh (for a bit of nostalgia and just fun). Since I'm returning to the game on my own, I am also looking for a guild/server to join as well. If any guilds are looking for specific classes they need, give me a shout and I will come back on.

Kind regards to everyone who replies to this post,

Synith

FV is a lot of fun. I'm in Pravus Mentis.

I suggest a blue server, not FV or Mayong or Zek

Well, if you want to solo, and you want a class that is challenging, and you want a class that will be attractive to guilds, I'd play a Bard. The class has it's weaknesses for sure - primarily poor DPS and highly gear dependent - but of all the melee/hybrid classes, Bards are the most versatile and the class offers many strengths. You'll be able to explore and fight in a LOT more content than most other classes could soloing. I would recommend that you obtain a warrior merc for lower levels and then obtain a cleric merc later. My best advice is that you do two accounts and box a Bard/Shm duo. You get all the essentials with these two classes (pulling, tanking, healing, snare, damage mitigation, damage enhancement, root/rot enabled, kiting enabled.) The weakness is low DPS and you'll have gear issues later on. Defiant armors will take you a long way though. You can add a warrior merc and a cleric merc to this duo and want for nothing.
