have fun playing! =)
Here's a copy of a post I made in another thread that may help:

One nice thing about Rift is that there are only four classes, but each of them have huge flexibility through a respec. From what I've found:


Clerics can play anything - ranged DPS, melee DPS, heals, tank, or support
Rogues can play ranged DPS, melee DPS, tank, or support
Warriors can play ranged (sort of) DPS, melee DPS, tank, or support
Mages can play ranged DPS, melee DPS, heals, or support


Still, I typically like to have as much flexibility possible and enjoy mixed groups, so I made my team consist of two clerics, two mages, and a rogue. I've only played with a cleric tank, cleric healer, and the others as ranged DPS so far, but I have tons of options in the future, like healing on a mage, having a melee DPS mage, tanking with the rogue, and having two ranged DPS clerics.


Looks like it will keep the game fresh for quite a while.


One other note for those starting up - I'm playing one of my mages as a Pyromancer and the other as a Gravelord with my rogue as a Huntsman. In the perhaps ten minutes I've spent on each toon's set up, the Pyromancer seems like the easiest class to macro for high DPS.


Just throwing that out there in the hopes that it might help someone new.
