    EQ2 is really duo friendly

    and there is a load of healer type class's which makes it more fun well worth a shot and i think the free trial is on

    but you cant use the new race models in the tiral version i heard.

    EQ2



    Try Mystic (healer) and Shadowknight (tank)

    Everquest 2



    World of Warcraft



    City of Heroes/Villains





    All of those are VERY duo friendly. City of Heroes/Villains being the best if you have a short amount o f time to play (1-2 hours) and Everquest 2 and WoW being if you want to get really into a game.

    LOTRO



    WOW



    EQ2 isn't that great imo

    EQ2 is a great MMO for duoing.

    If you ask me, City of Heroes is by far the best MMO to duo in.

    Warrior/Paladin, Priest, Shaman in WoW is a great duo.  Want to quest, you win.  Want to PvP, you win.  Want to instance, DPS is easy to come by.

    thx guys, appreciate the help.

    so, its obvious that ill go with city of heroes/villains, wow, or eq2

    BUT, i forgot to mention that my bro was alot younger than me. hes not to young to understand games by ANY mean, he plays games all the time. but, this will be his first mmo.

    does that change the viewpoints alittle?

    please dont make comments like this, Its immature (which happens to be what your criticizing), and its counterproductive.

    City of Villains is prob. the best bet then. All powers are useful and you really can't go wrong making a character. Basically I pick my moves by "holy crap that sounds awesome" and they tend be and work fine.

    Also, the game is fairly simple to pick up, and it doesn't get complicated at all even when you start delving into Inventions (Crafting) and Supergroup (Guilds) stuff. Once you get the hang of it, it's all fun and cool stuff.



    I went through something similar to your case, OP. CoH was my brother's first MMO and he convinced me of getting it too so we played together. Of course, practically all the time we were duo-ing. He grabbed a Tanker and I got a Defender (in my case, a debuffer, not a healer), and we rolled all the way to lvl 50 together, we formed a supergroup, and the game's still our favorite game to play together almost three years later. We come mostly from an action game background, and we loved the game. If you like slower games which aren't that action oriented, well, you could try WoW. It's easy to pick up as well, but it's a little more about doing other stuff and not as centered around combat as CoH. I don't want to prejudice your judgement with my experience, but I have to say that I found the CoH community a lot more team-oriented than WoW, in general.



    In any case, good luck finding the right game for you and your bro to play
