Pallies = AC first, HP second

What do you mean any user can display ranking? I go to the rankings and try to show rogues on my server and it says it's only a premium service. How is that for any user?

For clerics most like Mana then HP. I would rather HP then Mana .

For Paladin AC > HP > Mana.

As much as I would like to say you can narrow it down to two.... Clerics (DO NOT ASSUME I AM BASHING YOUR fill in name of class here!!!) really fall under three areas. Mana, AC, and AA's. Not in any order. But a cleric is only as good as the combined Mana pool, AC, and Mana free heals, etc s/he has.

Its far harder to just focus it down to two for that class.

IMO:

Bard: HP, then AC.
Shaman: Mana, then HP is my ranking... could easily be HP then Mana though

Just rank them all by HP and you can scroll through the rest. There will be a tendancy for the higher HP to equate into higher stats for them most part in other areas.(Yes AC is an exception that jumps out)

War - HP then AC (or AC then HP as the previous post states)

First, I appologize for all my comments and frustration and thank you very much for opening up rankings to all your users. I know it will keep us all posting here so we can compare ourselves with every other user.

I think you already addressed this but if we could all sort by server and class it makes more logical sense. I am interested in how I rank vs. other tanks on my server but really don't care how I rank vs. every tank on every server (nice to see occasionally, but not as useful personally or for guild recruiting on a particular server as well)

Next, a function that was very useful on the old eqrankings site was a way to sort by column by clicking on the column header. Primary sort is nice but with a click to be able to see how my AC compares to the rest, how my HP compares to the rest, how my AA compares, etc. was a very helpful tool. I am pretty sure a column sort would be easy to implement.

Thank you for taking our comments to heart.

I like the way its set up so far..have only looked at Warrior however.

Rangers sorted by number of deaths? That would be a hoot.

Shaman definitely HP first. Anything else second, there are few ties. Most shaman probably look at mana second but I like AAs, AC, some of the Mod2, or even resists. Mana isn't a problem for shaman, staying alive is.

If you are looking for a default sort, I'd suggest just HP with no second sort for all classes, your ranking system allows people to choose any other sort they want. EQ equip seems to key off of HPs. The more the HP on an item the more the other stats.

HP 1st for all classes. AC as a 2nd for: war,pal,sk,ranger,zerk,rogue,bst. rest should get Mana as 2nd

I think AA's should be removed from rankings at all, who the hell cares? now its so easy to max it out.
