RL can be time-consuming. Therefore, for the periods of "I've only got an hour and can't wait for a group", I want a Mid class who isn't hopeless in 1v1's. However, I'm probably going to be leveling solo too so would not prefer a SB, and I remember them being crazy expensive to SC up well.

I had a Skald, Thane and Hunter on Uth 1.0, all who got to 49/50 and briefly played PvP in Emain, and they seemed to win at least some fights (Skald more so I'd say, not considering BG's). However, I've never played old RA's so dunno what to expect in the revamp and big-boy PvP.

So, I was wondering if anyone has any advice on solo classes that won't suck hard in leveling by themselves and in 1v1's? Got Skald, Thane or Hunter on my mind again; they were all great fun in Uth 1.0 BG's at least. SB could be pulled in too, I guess.


Cheers!

Oh, and a Warrior may be a good shout all things considered based on forum research...

Can't go wrong with a warrior. I think skalds will be a bit harder with old RAs but still have speed. Thane is not a bad choice and will probably be what I roll if I go mid. Hunter will be very tough but also very rewarding if you can outplay people (I have tried and failed, will be even tougher at this patch level)

IMO: Warr>skald=thane>hunter

Skalds are a very strong option solo, Bonedancer and Thane do OK, another slightly riskier option is a darkness spec Spiritmaster.
