Hey I had the same problem in EQ, took me forever to finally settle down with what I wanted to be, then I decieded to try something else

I do suggest mutli player that way you can make it there with a character, save a spot, import other of your characters, and see how they stack up in the same position.

Good luck and keep on gaming

LOL, Well, DP, you aren't alone! I started the game with a fighter/cleric pc, got halfway through Ch 2 and dumped her for abard(skald), which got set aside as a saved game while I then created a full fighter pc....which I recently dumped and have now gone back to the bard. Whew! So many choices, so many re-play possibilities...not nearly enough time!

Find a class that matches your play style as much as possible and then try to play it through. Like the others said, you can always start a new game eith another pc after that!

I thought this was about the server hanging up all the time, I have a lot of trouble with that.

On topic: I think 250 has a little point, if you want to play them all, then play a multiplayer game of 2-6 characters. Don't forget the kensai/thief though

Dualclassing doesn't make sense, but it is allowed in this game.

I had the same problem, but most of the choices you mentioned were good ones. I know it would be cool to make all your characters in a multi player game, but for your first time through, I think you should use some of the NPC's. It really adds so much to the game. We're with you brother!

Yeah you have to RELATE to your lead character, not just admire their skills! I am more comfortable with a good-aligned Cleric than any other type. I keep starting new games, too, trying all the different types and combinations, but I come back to my Cleric with a sense of relief.... It is important, too, to have a character portrait you like. I know lots of people are likely to think that the portrait doesn't matter - but I can't play with a character if I don't like the face.... (yeah, I know...!)
Maybe, when you have found a class you are comfortable with, you will be able to complete a game!
