So I decided to start playing sro again on a newer server. I need a character who:

1.levels fast (no or just small gap, fast killer)
-> wizard is very fast and doesn't necessarly require many SP
-> xbow (same as wizard)
-> chin. nukers fast lvling but many SP required
-> chin. bower medium lvling speed and many SP required

but additionaly the char has to be..

2. good as a hunter in trades
-> wiz has aoe which is good against normal thieves, but lacks defense vs. player thieves
-> xbow no aoe, dunno about player thieves
-> chin. nuker has aoe, i guess quite good against player thieves (?)
-> chin. bower can attack multiple targets, but not as good as nuker/wiz, good defense and offens against player thieves

So, these are just my opinions about the possible builds that I could take. Feel free to state your opion and where you think I'm right or wrong.

Right now I really don't know what I should take and could use some help!

the fastest lvler without needing many skills on the euro side is the rogue/bard.
It needs less sp than a wiz/bard and makes up for the damage difference with hp and interruption effects (KB/KD), allowing it to kill in masses even being below monster level.
A 2 gap all the way and you are ff.
You can farm once you get to 10d and switch to cleric.

If you want chinese...a light/ice nuker would be the sp friendliest build but since you want to join in on group pvp, either spear or s/s.
if SP is your worst worry, go 1:5 - 1:8 hybrid int with
max weapon/max fire and a light/ice mix

If you can bear a higher gap for more sp, you have the chance of going any int build with 3 maxed skill trees

Thanks for your answer, but I'm still not convinced what char is the best for me.

You say rogue/bard and wiz/bard are the fastest lvler on euro side, but what about my second task being a hunter?
Chinese nuker are slower lvler because they require more SP but they do a better job as hunter.

I need a build that is good (not best!) at both tasks, fast lvling and being a hunter. Your opinion?

For jobbing, being a hunter, whoever has the most silk item + nova gear + buffer wins. There's no way around it.

I say go rogue bard, you got a chance you might be able to pop someone with the stealth.

Wizzard/cleric , or warrior / bard ( cleric )
After lvl 100 all partys are euro only : 4 wizz , 2 warrior , 1 cleric and 1 bard .
