Decided I'm going to play one of each of the 4 archetypes of classes (tank, melee, casting, priest) so far I have a melee and a tank. I'll have to make a new account for a caster and a priest. But at the same time I can multi-box between two accounts if I want to which is cool!

    Oh wow this takes me back. EverQuest was the only bonding experience I ever had with my absentee father. Spent a summer break with him during 2002 and made a Shadow knight that I ended up leveling up to 47. Went on raids with him and joined a guild. Fun stuff. Kinda miss the innocence of games like this.

      Thanks for sharing! The first character I ever made was a shadow knight, but I think I only got him to like level 10. It was on a friend's account over his house in like 2000.

        Idk why but in every game where they give you a choice between dozens of races/classes it's like "cool thanks for that just gonna make a human Melee/tank cheers mate"

          EQ like a lot of mmos the human warrior or paladin option is safe because you won't be kill on sight to half of Norrath. I have a soft spot for the evil races. The next character I make I think will be an Iksar necromancer, they're so cool.
