While my main charicter is still in the middle stages, I've been starting to think about what class my alt should be. Trying to decide between Wizard, Blademaster, or Archer.

One of my main concerns is which class of the three listed is the most "twinkable" aka I can wait untill my cleric is higher and able to make money easier and then spend a good chunk of cash to deck out my alt with some good/great gear in their earlier-to-mid levels so they can level up faster than one would normally.

At first I was kinda set on a Blademaster since its playstyle is dramatically different than a Cleric, while the Archer and Wizard share the ranged aspect of fighting. But you see BM's all over, where with the Archer and Wizard are much less populated in comparison as far as I can tell. So now im kinda at a standstill between the three.

Help me decide :) Give the good and the bad of the classes in view of your expierances. Thanks for any responses in advance.

    If you don't wanna go a popular one because it's popular, go wizard...jus' don't see them anywhere, really. Loads of BMs and Archers, I've seen.

    Archer's are the PvP class. So while they arent as abundant on HT (or Sanct i believe), they are quite abundant on Lost City, the equivalent of Venomancers on PvE servers (as in #1 job you see everywhere on LC). So as far as popularity goes, Wizard is definately the least popular. But the reason for this seems to stem from at early levels they seem to be very difficult and frustrating to level. If your main concern is ease of levelling go BM (they're 2nd to Venomancer in levelling ease below 60, and at 60+ they can be a lure in zhen to level even quicker, but in that case, as easy as the other 4 zhen jobs which exclude Veno).
