Help me choose a class

General Discussion Started Last reply 6 posts
Hey guys I'm having a hard time choosing a class. Basically what I'm looking for is a char I can solo farm with (Of course either be or have a ISS with me).

Classes I've made so far:
- Healer(86), near impossible to solo farm with.
- Summoner(86), Easy mode farming but i don't like the idea of pets, not sure how to describe it I like only worrying about my own hp and where my character is and doing. Not pets.
- Othell(85), was loving this until I awakened, then wasn't much of a fan anymore.

Now I just made a ISS to 85 so I can use any class that I finally decide on.

Classes I havent tried yet
- Archer, Heard its 100% skill dependent? And will OOM fast.
- Wizard, Heard they are amazing, but once again oom fast?
- Knight, Heard they are great in PvP easy to find groups but kill slow solo.
- Tyrr, Heard they are just very underpowered in all aspects.

I want that toon I can solo farm easily with while I listen to music and rank up my adena :P since i find all chars i have made to 85 you are theoretically broke to anything you would like to obtain around that lvl other then the free gear u get at 86. But I also want the class to be able to hold its own to if people try to move in on you I dont want to just get easily steam rolled. Obviously I know if a group comes in I stand no chance, but would like to hold my own till I can be a little ***** and bsoe :)

For starters..ya heard very wrong.

yun is correct, at 85 im pling my alts by pulling 15-20 mobs solo with iss box in swamps with no issue.
Only lazy wizards are out of mana super fast. Body to Mind is great if used regularly.
Yul doesn't have issue with mp that I have seen, and it can regular hit mobs anyway also.

well to make money you can do soa daily quest on each of your toons now. that quest still give better rewards than kartias. just watch /partymatching while you grind and/or make own party while you grind

Well i know some ppl have complained about the Tyrr ( Cuz they Miss their Destroyers ) but the fact is...a Tyrr can do Tanking if a Tank is not around and they are indeed a really good pvp toon from what i can see ( i dont have Tyrr yet but am amazed at what they can do ) All the classes nowadays use alot of mana, but it is up to you how fast you go thru it and it doesnt help a party if ya spamming your skills and OOM in seconds ( especially right after "rebirth" )...spamming your skills can actually hurt a party cuz the healer is constantly having to recharge you. Mana use should be such that you have mana left when Rebirth rolls around again for best efficiency. No one here can tell you what to play, that you have to find out on your own by playing said class and ppl will have different opinions ( some good and some bad ). Instead, i would ask yourself, "what kind of playstyle do i like best" ( Melee, Mage/Ranged,Up close and personal) knowing this will narrow down your options a lil bit. You most deffinately want an Iss Enchanter if you do alot of solo play or dont have alot of time to commit to a lengthy party as NO class nowadays can solo play very well without these buffs. I can tell you from my own experience that all the classes have pros and cons but so far all the awakened toons have been pretty fun to play ( see my signature ). The things is....some ppl dont give a said class enuff time to be fun as said class will get stronger with enuff patience ( i usually get my toons to lvl 87 before making a new class to try, doing this will give you 2 full lvls to learn the toon, you should know by then)....I hope this helps and i wish ya best of luck on a decision. :)


PS: at the middle of the Front page of these forums are "Class Specific" threads....try going there and reading the pros and cons of any class...Good Luck to you :p
