Hello everyone! I've used RG before and liked how simple it was to use, and messed around a little bit with it on Live.
Though, now I want to take things more seriously. My current goal is to jump into Everquest (live version) and progress with a boxed group, clearing all content and raids, from expansion to expansion, era to era. From classic, to Kunark, to Velious, and onwards until it's virtually impossible to clear anything by myself. I'm a completionist and I like taking my time to accomplish everything (reasonably possible) in a game. I ain't sure how to approach this goal, so a bit of help is appreciated:
Thanks in advanced for helping out with your advices and expertise! (and possibly awarding a bit of red coins just to help getting this ball rolling once again, if you're feeling generous..!)

- I started a manually managed 3-box team on live, but am fearing this isn't going to be enough even with mercs to fill in the empty 3 slots. Should I straight up make a 6-box team or can I somewhat still manage with a 3-box? Keep in mind I want to do all content (missions / raids / dungeons) within reasonable limits. (I do not mind overleveling or overgearing my toons a bit to clear those up before moving on.)
- Been torn between Warrior and SK for tanking. I love the Warrior's concept or just being a brutal meat shield and mitigates damage like sponge, but at the same time an SK has a pretty cool tool-set, but I guess other toons can simply fill that role of swiss-tools.
- How far has any of you managed to come within this game while boxing? I really want to see everything that I missed with this grandpa of an MMO because I was just too young and stupid to play it at all back then when it was still relevant hehe. It's an adventure I want for myself after all.
- Most likely gonna go with Test server for automatic gold status and unlimited AAs. Is this a good choice? (don't exactly have pimp stacks of $$$ to afford so many subs at once, this would be quite expensive on my bills...). I originally had created a few chars on Firiona Vie otherwise.
- Most likely gonna go WAR / SHM / BRD / ROG / BER / MNK . Though I don't know if I should switch out Shaman for a cleric for better heals... I guess bard can slow so that's not too bad, but I miss out on shaman buffs and roots.
