Questions about EQ1

Jedd Corpse · 08-08-2007

Hey guys, Me and my friend decided to come back and play EQ1, and i was wondering if anyone could tell me what the most populated server is, so that we dont get burnt out from having miles of empty land to level on.

I also wanted to know if you guys had any input on a Monk/Bard combo... Friend wants to play a Bard, and I was thinking of playing a Melee, and Monk kinda stood out since i played one before and loved it.

Basically what has changed? and where should i play?

If you are looking to eventually raid higher end and play on eastern standard time, I would suggest Maelin. If you are looking to play with people you knew before, than I'd suggest Tribunal. Most of the servers have similar populations as a whole, just many of them reside in differant aspects of the game.

Looking for a West coast server and we plan to eventually raid.

Monks are great for DPS but come up a little short as main tank. It might work at lower levels, but once you get into higher level mobs, it will take less mana to rez you than to heal you.

As has been mentioned, the population from server to server is pretty even...

The roleplay servers are fun to play as well. Firiona Vie has a number of large guilds that are hard core raid guilds... as well as some casual raiding guilds. There seems to be fairly even spread of time zones on FV.

Though according to everything on the SOE boards, FV is a dying server.

Thanks guys, still thinking about my server, if anyone else has an opinion let me know

Monks are fun but I would also consider a SK or a Pally. I think that would make a great combo with a bard.

Or alternatively make a kiter to kite w/ the bard, like a druid - since you can't really do much duoing anymore at the higher ends.
