what classes will mostly be needed on mischief ?

clerics,shammies and ?

Everything that doesn't have tracking is going to be seriously under-represented.

Not really. TLP's are already dominated by certain tracking programs.

In my opinion, the same classes will be in demand... if anything, they'll be in more demand than normal.
I suspect most people will 2-3 box and attempt to kill off-the-path names.

For guild play and raiding it is always clerics that define how much splitting or raids you can fill.

If you're looking to hunt named, necros will be the top pick.

So Monks will be #1 representation? Am I doing this right?

Yep, monk tracking is OP.

Bankers and merchants. Gotta be the most fun server ever if that's your game.

Necros you say? *raises eyebrow*

Might have to play Necro this time around *stroking chin*

I'm considering taking bone chip pre-orders. Can I put you down for a hundred?

I wish i could enjoy eq like this guy.

Can I get wholesale prices?

This question reminds me of the recruiting scene in When Worlds Collide

clerics, bards, rangers, tanks (maybe not SK as DT kill steals will be king for boss farming)

Any class that cant plant their as at a boss spawn for hours will be rare.

Top played will be Enc, Dru, Monk, Nec, Sham, Wiz... while wiz isnt a good farmer is it second best as kill stealing boss
