<div>Nobody could, or should attempt to tell you what you should choose.  Each class has it's own abilities that it can specialize in.  For example the berserker and warlock's (and a couple others) shine, when they are fighting more than one thing at a time, where as a wizard (and others) do much better fighting a single target.  If you come to a berserker board, then most people here will tell you berserker.  Personally, I can not see myself playing any other class.  I created a couple alts, but they get very very little play time.  Even after I hit level 60 and was capped there, not getting any more xp, I still logged on my berserker to play.  It's a good class that can solo well, and perform well in group/raid situations since we can go defensive and tank about as good as a guardian (or better in certain situations), but have the option to go all out offensive and be pretty good at this too.</div><div>Some classes don't get better until you get them up to higher levels, and my alts aren't very high, so I am bias...</div>

Over all Zerkers are great, but i think Brigs and Trob's can beat us most of the time if they know how to play their class, Most of them on the PVP server are new to scouts and dont quite know how to play them yet, so you might have some luck.</p><p>just my 2copper</p><p> </p>

<div></div>I never had a problem killing anyone of other classes at my same level or below except with summoners. They are evil.
