What is the best combo for 2 people levelling?

scottdx

Myself and a friend are going to start this game within the next day or two, what two classes and professions would go well together? Champion/Burglar.....Guardian/Minstrel.......Captain/loremaster     anyclass/anyclass.

 

Also what professions feed off one another well? Thanks for any and all suggestions.

Champion/Ministrel

Champion/Minstrel.  The Champion has good melee DPS, and at 20 gets heavy armour.  The Minstrel heals.  It's the classic combo for fast progression.

It really depends on the player if ya  know ya how to play ya class well then u should have no trouble i think   Loremaster/Tank (champ or gaurd) so u will in essence have the braun and the mind but when ya get to higher lvl mobs a healer would not go astray but i guess you will soon realise that you will need help with fellowships sooner rather than later my advice is to get into a good kinship and if at anytime u do need that extra help u can always rely on a fellow kinsman to help.

thanks a ton guys.. any suggestions on differing profession skillsets? What will compliment .. say .. and armorer?

2 hunters

i would suggest if you want to be an armourer then have 1 be that and the other with the forester trade because to make the Armour you will need mats from the forester so they work of each other.

Any profession with prospecting/foresting in it.  The easiest profession to make money with by far is Explorer, because it can harvest everything and sell for a good profit at very low cost.  That's probably the best way to go, since it has forester and prospector.



You should also be aware that both cooking and farming are not working at the moment ( a patch is coming in June, apparently, to address this to some extent ), and scholar is quite, quite hard to level (and that's intended).

Champion/Minstrel if you are going to duo the whole way...



But if you plan on grouping up the Champs gonna have some trouble getting in... (Minstrels are always needed)



Based on that you might consider a Guardian, Minstrel, though they level a bit slow.



My son and I play a Guardian/Burgler..and it works out pretty well... I hold the threat, he unloads the big damage or fellowship skills, and we're always welcome in a group it seems...

My cousin and I have been duoing with a Captain/Minstrel and we rarely get into trouble. The nice thing though is that if we do get into trouble I can use my Captains heal abilities to save him or me or both. Also the Captain gets a rez ability at 20 so if something goes really wrong and only I survive or only he survives we both have rez.

Just so everyone here knows I am biased to the captain so take this advice with a grain of salt.

I think a captain/minstrel combo would be great, or a captain lore master for crowd control would be awesome to.  Captains can heal, so just about any DPS class with it would be sweet.

My son and I are playing Captain/Guardian. I actually play the healer as the Captain.

I agree a Minstrel and any tank class would be the best, but my wife and I are having a blast with a Champion and a Burglar.  As a Burglar, she is able to start the fellowship congruences [or whatever they are called] - this has saved us a few times when we got 2-3 adds   We've only made level 17 each, so I don't know how long this will last...  For healing, we each have a self-heal and potions [plus the fellowship thing on a 5 minute timer]
