Golena said:If your introducing someone to the game i'd go for a duo that's going to be fun to play rather than an uber leveling one. With double exp on US classic atm leveling isn't hard with any 2 classes.
If you want to avoid downtime then a class with some healing ability is probably going to be a good idea. The problem is that many of the healing classes would make leveling easy and painless but whoever was playing them might find it a rather dull experience if only playing in a duo. Target other person mash heal once every 10 secs for 50 levels.
The ones that stand out as good choices would be valk, warden, friar and heretic since they can do more than just mash a heal button while avoiding the need to sit down for 2 mins between every yellow mob. Just partner them with another tank.
The other option would be 2 casters and nuke stuff to death from range, probably harder to learn for a newbie than a tank since you need to kite sometimes and stuff but less equipment dependant if your starting with nothing and might be more fun to play!
sorc/cabby
RM/SM
Eld/banshee
all would work well in rvr as well.

and both can rezz in case the other one die
Succi said:skald + shaman is indeed useless... its like mincer/cleric . Except the mid duo doesnt have pow regen... which is the main source of dps really
Garok said:Get mana regen next patch though.. + Campfires if you know what mobs to kill
Kami said:Found if I stick to quests I fly up the levels fast, lot of porting but with skald speed it's a doddle, not as easy at tanks but less boring than camping full levels.

USA ATM not sure if they doing it EU alsoDre@d said:Btw that double xp thing, is in EU servers also? or just on us ones?
Moaning Myrtle said:If you can find someone to do it, then have yourself PL at Orcs in Adland. The XP there is insane anyway, but with double XP it'll just be obscene TBH.
