Eq legends classes

So what is everyone planning on rolling for legends? Not exactly sure how it will work but I have been thinking about this and my favorite class is mage so I will definitely be a mage, I am thinking mage / druid / shaman there is a bit of overlap there but I feel like it can do a bit of everything including ports, thoughts? What are you all planning on playing?

I'm going SK/CLR/ENC to cover everything.

Enc gets a lot of + mana regen AAs, Not the best nukes for spell blade but you can nuke undead. I am almost thinking SK Necro Ench so you could just lifetap out of problems. If you need a healer you could do Sk Necro Sham.

Decisions are going to actully be hard here.

At the moment, not all of the AA's are in and Enc is missing quite a bit there. So, I wouldn't make any comparisons to anything off other servers as EQL is quite different.

Enc is still quite strong in the current beta. Also, some of the spells with Enc do work with Spellblade due to lower reuse time and this puts them in a unique place... I wouldn't be terribly shocked if this gets changed before launch.

SK in EQL gets a lot of spells much earlier than normal (Paladin gets the same treatment). Normally, you wouldn't get Spirit Tap until 55 as an SK. ...Not on EQL. You get it much earlier, but not as early as the Necro does. Lifetaps are the niche of the SK and so the changes are made to support that.

And as to the person originally responded to, I've also considered SK/CLR/ENC or just SK/ENC where the third slot may just rotate a bit as I find what I like the most.

Ya I could see charm also bring huge.  Being able to have a pet who can take a big pounding while also lots of DPS and you dont go splat in 3 hits would make SK ENC CLR a powerhouse.

As of right now, Enchanters are easily one of the worst and under developed classes in the beta, No AA support, changes to charming, the pace of the game + the ability to cleave renders them pretty useless in comparison to something like a bard

That was actually the first trio I planned before switching to cleric. SK/NEC/ENC sounds extremely powerful

I also considered that set up and may still run it. :D
