So many factors play into this.
Solo, group, public?
6-12-24hr Goal?

I run 2 copies: Necro and Sorc. My Aussie friend might join for 4-6 hrs. Fillers to push it to p8 xp.

Warlock if the nerfs aren't terrible
Sorc or pally if they are

Prior to rotwl I went sorc as its the quickest to farm with. Cant beat the innate teleport, but that changed with how hard sunder were to get.
