Hybrid (Archetype)

The EQWiki - Your source for random EverQuest knowledge

The Hybrid Archetype consists of five classes: Bard, Beastlord, Paladin, Ranger and Shadowknight. While varying in roles, weapons, armor and skills, hybrids are generally considered a cross between a melee class and one or more of the Priest and/or Purecaster classes, although they also have skills apart from or surpassing those their parent classes. For instance, the Ranger is the best tracker in the game, his skill surpassing that of the Druid, a parent class to the Ranger. His Archery skill also surpasses that of the Warrior, his other parent class. For another example, the Shadowknight's Harmtouch is unique to that class, not a skill acquired from either of his parent classes.
