Most bang for my buck

Thinking about returning to the game and had just one question.
What is the cheapest and fastest class to gear and level up?

Not sure about other servers but for AU server i would say Healer, haha. Stam/def and wis/hp stats are worth so much less than int/ma or dex/pa...and you can effectively heal with just gear and no stats anyway :P
Cammo (82 M/82 W/82 R) 116,147 unbuffed Matk :D (95k pa - r/m)
Livia (82 P/77 K/75 S) wisdom O.o wtf is that...
~~ retired - Thanks to gameforge for that. ~~

Warrior is probably the cheapest (both stats and gear), and if you go W/Wd you'll have a nice spammable charged chop to help you along the way.

People don't like rage though.

Priest healer or champ/r or w/r or w/wd.

Str stats are in overabundance, priest healers don't have to be decked out to heal end game due to its dependence on healing point bonus which is on gear rather than statting. Druid healers have to worry about statting wisdom so is slightly more expensive imo compared to a priest healer.

Warriors can be under geared cause of "certain" burn buffs. DoD stated Bangs comes to mind. Pretty much any healer can be lvled and geared pretty fast. I would not agree that wisdom stats are all that hard to obtain. Most priests have little use for more then one wisdom stat per piece and there are not many end game druids, at least not on Reni, so I would say rolling for wisdom stats is not all that competitive.

There are virtually zero wisdom stats for sale on Palenque, they 1) never drop or 2) are stacked by the druids. They sell for the same price as dex/pa, sometimes more. The bygone versions I see sell for 10-12m consistently. That's the most expensive of the bygones.

So I guess it just depends on how many druids there are on your server :P

Definitely healer. Any type of healer really. Yes, even a Druid. A Druid can get by statting with wis/def instead of hp if they have to to get their wisdom. They could go wis/def x2, wis/hp shell, sta/def x2, hp/defense remains. Which would honestly be super cheap. And no matter what kind of healer you're statting that kind of setup would easily get you into endgame.

I think people over-exaggerate how dirty statted you were >.> You already had a tosh weapon for free before stepping foot into the place, and not even that many pieces were dirty dod statted -_-

Hey hey, I got my tosh weapon for free before stepping my warrior into ToSH. I've wiped in there with everyone for hours too when I tanked it before stripping Bangs. And I had five T4 +7 dod dirty statted pieces! :D 5/15 pieces! That's 33%!

I dunno bangs, I remember you never wanting to go for more than 4 tries, and made it such a hassle to get you to tank in the first place...

Lol then thats like saying we never attempted tosh before Kossta came back from MIA then since me and Blunt were the only two tanks and Blunt was always dpsing.

Granted we didn't get far into the instance until Kossta came back but the hours of death still count >.>

We should have (ex)Heretic sub-forum for them to express their love for each other... :)

As for cheapest, everything except mage. Just quick look last week at even simple thing like Pet Eggs to rise level of my pet. Cheapest was 30K?! Not sure what folks that put <L15 eggs for 100s K think, but imho it is just like with stats - our cost way too much.
