The question
I'm going to make the template for all the rest of the class guides on the wiki, but I'd like to know what the community thinks are the best IDs for each class. This will be aimed at new players, so I'm looking to get answers to the following:
Please let me know in the replies what you think the best IDs are for each class for broad categories. You can answer as many or as little classes as you want, and also can just answer for class types rather than specifics (e.g. instead of suggestions for RAmarl and RAcast, suggestions for Hunters and Forces). Multiple suggestions for each category can be made, but if one is just straight up better, suggest only that.
After a while I'll aggregate the results and come up with some answers. Feel free to discuss in this thread too.
Example
(Please note that this example may not be accurate, it is just an example)
For RAmarl:
Best ID for finding items for the class: Greenill
Best ID for finding items where the class excels: Skyly
Best ID for overall good items: Whitill
Remember - This is aimed at new players, so while an ID like Bluefull may be a killer ID in Seabed, is it a good choice for a new player in general? It might be, but just remember to keep this in mind.

One of the most common questions by new players is "what ID should I pick for [class]?", as it's a permanent decision and is very important to a character's overall usefulness in certain contexts.
However, while there's information out there that lists what an ID drops, or tier lists of each ID, there's not really any resource that just answers the question as to what section ID someone should pick when they are new. You can say "well, all IDs are good, it depends on what or where you want to hunt", but new players don't know anything so cannot make a decision and they're not going to be doing 10 hours of research before they even make their character.
Ultimately, new players want to be told to pick an ID that they will not potentially regret choosing 100 hours down the line. You can argue they're all good, but not all of them are good for every person and class, as it will depend on how they play the game. Skyly for Hunters, Purplenum for Rangers, and Pinkal for Forces are still the most commonly picked IDs because there is a guide out there that tells people to just pick those IDs; it's what people want to know when they're asking this question.
A bit back, I started a template with a RAmarl guide, which quickly goes through why you should or shouldn't pick the class, what IDs you should pick, and gives people mag and material plans right off the bat.
We need to template the rest of the classes in the same way (phelix started one for HUcast), but before doing so, I'd like to know what the community thinks are the best IDs for each class.
