Few Questions From A Newbie

Hey guys...Im preatty new to lineage 2 and i was wondering if i could get some help on a couple of issues im having.

First off im not a total noob, i played for 2 months after open beta :) so i know a bit. But the last time i played was C1 so i dont know any changes that took place in the mean time (was busy with WoW) In the months i played i have managed to make
1 - cleric lvl 20
1 - Elf ranger lvl 20
1 - artisan lvl 22
1 - wizard lvl 20

Now i personally love playing healer classes. My absolute fave..but i also like playing a strong pvp class for some fun in between. Personally i have grown bored of archers and have fallen in love with daggers through rogues in WoW.

So here are my questions:
1) Is it wise to play your favourite class first and then a money maker?? (i have top NG gear for all my characters) Or money maker first and then your fave class?
2) I dont like playing the market..so i would really enjoy it if i could somehow farm monsters for money. Wise or not? And if it is at what lvl is this optimal?
3) I would like to make a healer class to be my main class and dagger or sorcerer to be my backup class.
a) How bad is the lvling on healers? And is it worth lvling them.
b) Do healers get groups in L2??
c) Dagger or Sorcerer.. i kinda like em both ..which would be better for a bit of pvp ...(i dont like cookie cutter classes so if any of em are it plz tell me so i dont make it).
4) If i lvl my healer first will i get money....i dont want to be walking around poor and not being able to do anything.

I know this seems like a lot..but im rlly confused about the game since i missed 3 chronicles and any help would be appriciated.

P.S I just remembered...are buffs rlly importaint in L2??

Thank you for all your help.

1) yes. youre gonna need a ton of money for D grade if you want to continue on 4 toons. otherwise, pick one, and delete the rest.
2) the MANOR system and other forms of money making are available to you from here on up. beware thoL you gotta have money to make money. get some friends. fast. no level requirements to do the manor system, just a good teacher.
3) healers level the best in 2 ways: raiding, and pole parties. youre already familiar with raids, so a pole party is basically a group of 2, maybe more, 1 healer, 1 POLEARM USER; warrir, or orc, or dwarf works ok too. these are the fastest form of levelling, and not the most common tho.
3c) there are no cookie cutter classes in L2. each person has their own style, and way of taking out a mob or a player. but i suggest you build up your dagger. its by far more fun than nuking especially with a sorceror. many noobs confuse sorcerors with necromancers and youll get PK'd out of the game.
4) only way to make money as a healer is to raid. the drops are your source of cash up to about 61 level if you arent careful enough spending what you have in your pocket.
5) buffs are important if you want to group, raid, or be a healer. unfortunately as a cleric you have crappy buffs. after level 40 depending which way you go, you can either have wickedawesome buffs ora handful of crap plus some special abilities from a staff.

either way you need to choose for your 40+ class what you want to be and the disticntion is clear: will you be a buffer, or a healer? as a cleric you are both and do neither very well. as one or the other you will have either some good buffs and a hanful of crappy heals, or awesomespectacular heals and a handful of crappy buffs.

i recommend you stick to your dagger though. its a much more fun class to play eventhough raids dont usually welcome them.

I never ment to lvl all 4 of my characters...just wondering which one would be most worthwile investing in.

Yea i am leaning towards dagger now....but i would still like a healer as a main. Would it be easier to grind a dagger or healer to 6x-ish and by that i mean if i lvl my healer first..will he be able to help my dagger and vice versa.

Is it worth buying buffs from other people i ment to ask at lower lvls.

And are human daggers better than elf or dark elf? Any difference of just preference

if your healer and your dagger are on 2 accounts, and you can run 2 clients from your PC, you can run them both to 6x at the same time.

if they are all on 1 account, youll have to play them 1 at a time.

and you dont buy buffs at all. you simply ask. but ask intelligently; know that a Dark elf buffer can give you different buffs from a human buffer or elf buffer.

likewise with the daggers, all 3 are very very different even though all 3 have the same "core" skills.

but this will all change when Chronicle 5 comes out. if i were you, i would level the Dark elf dagger instead of a human dagger. they are WAY more powerful at higher levels, but you will absolutely have to know how to set yourself up as a dagger in the meantime. for this i recommend you only experiment with your human dagger until you can handle missing some mortal blows and not want to commit suicide when they fail. also you will need to know the differences in the races; your defining attributes are the key here.

the best setup for you would be (if you have 2 accounts and some decent sized ram) elf healer and dark elf dagger. reason is Elf healer gets an evasion boosting skill that will tremendously help you fight mobs with the dagger. if you can switch clients fast, you should also be able to heal yourself well, and just in time.

good luck man.

Ur serious? EE is a good PvP healer, but create a EE to box him for agility is kind of stupid, sorry. I suggest a SE, he will need focus&death whisper and also guidiance. Along with VR he wont need much heals either and since he will maybe do a nuker in the future he will want empower and wild magic.

For the OP:
If ya really like being a supporter and dont have much money, u can play ur cleric and make him a prophet. Prophets r best buffer ingame and maybe the class that uses lesser ss than everyone else. For ur questions: yes, healers r partied, and yes, buffs r needed in L2. At a later lvl u wont get anywhere without buffs and a bit further buffs r not enough, u will need a BD in ur party. Take ur cleric to the gludin necro and ask if someone needs a healer, thats how i lvled my bishop. As far for the 20-30 and 30-40 catas/necros, i didnt had to do more then 1 shout before a lonely pot-spamming fighter picked me up.

I saw no mention of a Warcryer. You get all your asking for with one of these. Your a party buffer, back up healer and can melee. You can solo very easy and are excepted into most parties. What more could you ask for? :)

accepted :p

and you dont buy buffs at all. you simply ask. but ask intelligently; know that a Dark elf buffer can give you different buffs from a human buffer or elf buffer.

Don't forget to say "please." Just a pet peeve. Besides, I won't buff anyone that doesn't ask nicely =)
