Everquest 2

[Haly]

Just started out on Everquest 2 after a very long break from it (started out when it was in beta and for a brief while afterwards) and trying to get used to it all again.
I've started out as a Sarnak Shadowknight although no idea if that's a good class to go for, I want mainly a soloing class as I play intermittently at the moment.
Main question is, are there any sites useful for learning things about the different classes and info on tradeskills?
Used to be loads about for EQ1 that were invaluable but struggling to find a good one at the moment. I know of http://eq2.allakhazam.com/ but I'm not overly keen on it so wondered what others were available. Just something with some good articles would do really.

Thanks

Thanks both Those sites all look really useful.
Tempted to try out a bruiser class as I loved being a monk in EQ1 so I'll give that a whirl.
So much to learn

Really good class, I played a monk for 2 years and enjoyed him while being a little envious of the bruisers ability to heal better than myself. I stand by the monk being the best class I've played in a MMG to date.

PS I'm now tempted to start EQ2 again! aggrrrh damn you!

Lol Always the way.
I'll try out a monk or bruiser later on then
It's already bringing back fond memories of EQ1, it might have ruled my life for a fair while but in a good way

Seems quite active in the chat channels. Obviously not ventured out too far yet so can't say for higher level areas but it certainly doesn't seem dead.

Been playing an iksar bruiser tonight, only reached level 10 but enjoying it more than the SK.
I love the fact that the skeletons sound the same as in EQ1
I can feel a hint of the old addiction creeping back but I'm hoping it doesn't get me quite as much as I let it during college years ago

Me too And yet I love it so

Surely the models can't look worse than the original EQ? They always looked so shocking.

I prefer the one on the left with those examples.
