New PLayer Needing Advice

With the class system that ROM has I need some help getting class combos right for what I want to do. I want to make one ranged caster dps, one good healer, one tank, and one melee dps that has decent survivability too. I made a warden/warrior to mess around with for a melee dps but I'm willing to change him to something else. Can you guys please give me advice on what classes to make. Also please include the race in the combo so I make it easier. Thanks a head of time for your help.

The following is assuming PvE:

Healer: Elf Druid Primary, Warden or Warrior Secondary, Warrior or Warden Tertiary. Choose between Warden and Warrior for your active Secondary class based on what party you are in after leveling and gearing. Both are good options for healing.

Tank: Human Knight Primary, Warrior Secondary, Priest Tertiary

Ranged Caster DPS: Any Mage Primary, Warrior Secondary

Physical Melee DPS: Elf Warden Primary, Warrior Secondary or Dwarf Champion Primary, Rogue Warrior Mage or Warlock Secondary

Magical Melee DPS: Any Warrior Primary, Mage Secondary (Recommended) or Human Knight Primary, Mage Secondary (Not recommended but is doable)

Depends what you are looking for, endgame, just siege, or just fun.

But many classes are viable in endgame parties now

Tanks: k/w, k/p, ch/p, wd/s, wd/w

Heals: d/w, d/wd, p/r (sometimes p/s)

DPS: r/m, ch/r, ch/m, m/w, w/m, wd/w, w/s, w/wd, s/r, s/wd, s/w, (with magic party m/wd, k/m, d/r)

Support: (not much - no gear needed) m/wl, wl/m, ch/p, k/p, wd/s, wd/m, ch/m

Some of the DPS classes also double as supports, and as you see some supports can double as tanks.

For endgame you want to be one of these classes at least, siege is different in that more attacking and tank classes are viable however healers only really get 2 options, p/k or d/wd. (p/r can be good also, even though squishy it has its purpose.)

I'm looking for endgame & just for fun. Not sure what siege even is. If siege is the guild vs guild pvp thing then not that I remember used to happen then no. I'm not that much into pvp.

In that case pick a combination of classes from the list I provided above that match your play style, and you should be fine :)

Just curious, are there any pet classes in this games similar to a hunter in other MMO's? I know warden gets a pet but I'm looking for a ranged class that has a pet full time too. Also do rogues or scouts get stealth?

For endgame rogue/mage, any other kind of rogue atm is more just for fun. (r/wd is often used for soloing random stuff, but isnt as high of DPS)

S/m and S/wd get a 6 second 'hide' skill every 2 minutes I believe it is.

Other ranged class I can think of with a pet is M/S but it's pet does next to nothing in damage, just there to buff you.

Warden are Rom pet classes, but they are melee, the most pet reliant classes would be wd/s and wd/m. i would recommand wd/s out of the 2 as they are overall better.

the easiest way to endgame is probably to start with a wl/m to get runs without need for gear, then make watever toon you want with the drops you get from runs

more of a 2m CD vanish, as it cancels combat as well. quite effective for ninjacapping.
