[img]smile.gif[/img] Pick a class you know you can excel in. My first character was a scout, which I did all right with, got up to level 6 and was doing pretty well, but when I got a good grasp of the game I started wondering if I could do better

, so like you, I started over.

And this time I looked at the major and minor skills for each class. I started thinking which ones I *knew* very well how to do. I was *VERY* critical, because this was my second go and I didn't want to be in that horrid limbo stage where you can't figure out what to play and so never get underway again.

Anyway, you've got to pick one you know you're going to be able to excel at, and don't compromise. Don't pick something with a bunch of skills you have no idea how to earn. With the sign, pick one you know will compliment your class/help you out. And as for race, try and get it to work with your class, but don't limit yourself.

In the end it's all about finding a character you'll really like playing.

I like this game for the role-playing too,

so I ended up with a dark elf thief.
