Rangers are a very strong and very easy class to learn the game with. They have a built in heal with herbs and a very nice hide skill with camo. You need to spend time in the wilderness so this won't be a great class for spending much time in civilized, but there is a TON of stuff outside of towns and the like to see.

If you haven't yet, look at the WIKI on the unofficial site. It is chocked full of info that helps. Also the discord is a great place to get help. But honestly the best way to do it, is play a character, roleplay and learn that way.

A good aligned ranger would be great. Or an assassin.

Druids aren't that complicated honestly. Just a bit more involved with keeping track of moon cycles and how they relate to the herbs you have. Druids kick ass. Play what you want and have a blast.

Welcome to the best MUD ever.
