Old player making a comeback

I am an old player took 3 months off to play WoW...after achieving lev 60 on 2 MORE characters I am coming back to the game I loved so much.

I need help deciding on a class.

Played a PR to 53, I am done with it so selling everything off.
Classes I am thinking of:
DA
PS
SK
ES
Warcryer

Help!

Welcome back!!! :D I say go for SK just coz I think they are a great class, I do not play one currently but if I re-roll I would go SK.

<3 Thanks for the welcome! :)

SK I played once and I loved being able to use sword/sheild and slice things to pieces while taking next to no damage.

That's a wild range of classes, what were you looking to do?

Not sure really, I love to DPS/Tank so I am not really sure!

I would go DA or SK they are both really good classes to play : & Welcome back & have fun! :D

If you like DPS and tanking..what about Destroyer?

Leaning towards DA right now. Tried one in the past but didn't get too far as I didn't have the resources for armor.

If you like DPS and tanking..what about Destroyer?

thats a hella fun class to play. jute beat me to suggesting that
besides, theres enough fricken dark elves running around :P

Never enough dark elves! WE WILL CONQUER THE WORLD!
...
On a less evil note...
Thinking of warcryer or some sort of orc mage. Thoughts?

DA are great also, my friend is on and he rocks. Good for PvP too :)

Orc Mages are definitely a Mage/Tank hybrid, and probably some of the most dangerous classes in the game, especially the Overlord. The curses that class have will ruin anyones playtime. :p

Although its a vast difference from a DA. The Orc Mystic is really hard to level up early game, but eventually they become really REALLY powerful.

On a more evil note:

There are NEVER enough Dark Elves! WE WILL RULE THE WORLD!!! HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!!!!

*ahem*

The main thing, however, to remember about the Overlord is that to be effective they need a solid clan. (Not for curses obviously but for regular gameplay and to take advantage of their purpose.)

OVERLORD! Humm seems fun I might try it.

---edit---
Okay I am sold so overlord uses sheild+blunt?

That or Staff. They can really wield anything aside from bows (just because in C5 they're making a penalty for that), so it depends on you playstyle. A spellcaster Overlord is going to use a staff, whereas a Tank Overlord is going to have a shield and blunt. Although I would suggest sticking with mystic stuff just because the Overlord is a spellcaster class more than the Warlord.

The Warlord on the other hand is all about going in a beating the snot out of stuff. Less efficiant than the Overlord but still gets the job done.

Okay I am sold so overlord uses sheild+blunt?

The blunt is used because you will need it to use your PvP/PvE skills (Stun/Hammer Crush). A sword gets more crits but your accuracy sucks as a mystic. Your weapon mastery is generic so it applies to any weapon (right now anyways), but blunt is most accurate.

Your method of hunting is bash, bash, bash, and then when you get low on HPs, use Life Drain (Steal Essence past lvl 40). Their drain is quite powerful and will restore a lot of HPs, if you combine with Blessed Spiritshots. Your armor choice is up to you. I prefer Heavy.


PS: the correct quote from Pinhead is "Your suffering will be legendary, even in hell!"

Thanks for the info, but I still prefer to personalize the quote hehe.

First skill you should get is Life Drain. Then weapon mastery.

Stuff I did NOT get ever:

Chill Flame
Fear
Soul Shield
Venom

overlord is one of the hardest to lvl yet vastly over powered classes.

in the olympiad Over lord wins just about every time, it's hard to beat a class that has soul guard and life drain that restores so much HP it's imposseible to defeat them.

OL; can do AoE, and is great in sieges. can solo with a vast array of weapons anything from staffs to swords to blunts even duels or two handed.
