I'd say the best is probably the assassin. You can hide, you have detects, you can tank, deal damage, and have some great survival utilities. Second up would be the ranger, I think, for all the same reasons - except with a ranger the you have to pay greater attention to the type of terrain you are in.

Warriors are a very solid choice, especially if you pick something neutral and unlikely to attract a lot of enemies. Very sturdy and can dish out some damage, and always welcome in just about any group.

Your thief isn't a terrible choice, but there will be situations where he can't quite cut it solo where these other class choices might.


No matter your choice, be certain to keep yourself stocked with recall potions so you can escape in a pinch - whether because of player attack, or because you got lost or in over your head with mobs in an unfamiliar area.
