Just came back after a looong absence and need help!

<DIV>Hello everyone! I am about to start playig again and I am hesitating between two classes Ranger and Swashbuckler. I work night shifts which means I will most probably end up soloing a lot. Which one would be better at soloing?</DIV>

I forgot to mention I want to remain in Qeynos so if you have any other scout class to suggest pick one on the light side! :smileyvery-happy:

<P>I am playing a Ranger, I can solo alright, but I think Swashbuckler *may* be a bit better. Ranger do most damage in ranged, and well... most<BR>mobs have that weird tendency to run towards you. If you really want scout, I guess both are ok, but my Ranger-experience shows it is a class<BR>more for grouping. But its a funny class, not easy to play, but fun. If you want to solo a lot you may consider Paladin. I played a Pally a long time,<BR>and with the healing spells he is quite independent IMO. Naturally Scouts have invis, you can get around easier, which is good for quest soloing.</P> <P>You can solo with all, try to chose what you like the most. I think Ranger needs a bit more tactics and planning than Swashy as far as I can say.</P>

I've solo'd my Swashy pretty much the whole way to 35. They are easy to solo at least that far. Adds are not a problem because of their AoEs and their Mez. They can handle groups much more efficiently. They, as a whole, are much easier to play. But they are no Ranger. I don't think there is nearly as much pride in being a Swashy as being a bowmasters <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /><div></div>
