It's been a long time since I've played iRO.
I was wondering what you, the insightful forum-goers, would recommend an essential newbie to play.
After looking over the classes, I was thinking something along the lines of an eventual Rune Knight or a Sura.
Builds would also be helpful, but I'm also new to these forums so I don't even know if this is in the right place or not.

tl;dr- A new player wants to know what classes/builds are recommend for new players.

I would look into making a Combo monk if interested in Sura (get some strength, like 50 dexterity, and some agility. For acolyte skills, blessing 10, agility 10, demon bane 10, divine protection 10, pneuma 1. For monk skills get trifecta blow, the rest don't really matter much.)

Sounds good.
I'll try and look up a more detailed build cause quite frankly I'm pretty new at these builds and such.
Also, bumping for more advice.

To be perfectly honest, renewal kind of took the necessity out of exact stats.

I have a combo monk at level 74:
Str 74
Agi 64
Vit 1
Int 1
Dex 33
Luk 1

It needs to have less strength (probably 60ish), and maybe drop agility down to 60, bring Dex up to around 50.

My skills look like:
Heal 10
Blessing 10
Increase Agility 10
Ruwach 1
Teleport 2
Warp Portal 4
Pneuma 1
Aqua Benedicta 1 (lol, get Dec Agi instead)
10 Divine Protection
10 Demon Bane

Iron Fists 5
Summon Spirit Sphere 5
Flee 5
Raging Trifecta Blow 10

Beyond that, I would get Raging Quadruple Blow, but there's not really much need for skills beyond that. For leveling, you'll pretty much just click on stuff and wait for it to die.

You're forgetting prereqs for aco skills. Monk has really really painful skill prereqs.

Aco Skills:
Divine Protection 10
Demon Bane 10
Blessing 10
Ruwach/Tele2/Warp4/Pneuma (8 points)
Heal 3 (to enable Increase Agi) leaving only 8 points to divide between more heal, increase agi. And that's if you go job 50.

Monk skills:
Iron Fists 5
Flee 10
Summon Sphere 5
Sphere Absorb 1
Raging Trifecta 5 (for maximum chances to do combos) or 10 (for maximum DPS from trifecta, but fewer chances to do other combos)
Raging Quadruple Blow 5
And the rest can be put towards aco skills, getting more agiup and heal.

Actually, yeah, I have those skills too, I forgot to list them, I put monk points back into acolyte skills because OI is useless now.

Fixed it up.

Thanks guys.
This really helps, hopefully I can stick with this until I get the ability to become a Sura.

Sorry to be off topic here but OI is useless now? How so? I was actually planning on leveling with OI for a gfist monk. Did the damage for OI change or something?

I really can't tell you the specifics, because I don't know myself, but I do know everyone levels combo now.

Actually OI has one benefit, It can't miss due to flee or Perfect dodge Which means you can hit Higher flee enemies like Roweens to lvl up easy. I was never really able to use this before renewal unfortunately so I cannot really compare.

Pre-renewal it dealt around 12k damage to high defence monsters pretty much almost instantly, which was a lot better than anything a combo monk could do.
