Character Indecision
Posted On 05/15/2008 22:34:11 by Nevermuse

12 Characters. 1 chance to have a main you enjoy. 8 character slots per ACCOUNT.

I'm often a pretty spur-of-the-moment character maker. I like to pick my class/race and then name that character accordingly. Sometimes I am unoriginal and add in a character or two that have "legacy" names; ones that I've used in other games. I like to avoid this, but will probably have 1 of them.

My big problem is... I had the chance to sample all of the classes in Open Beta up to 13... and it's hard to decide.

I don't want to tank, but all of the tank options are very viable.

I want to do DPS, melee preferrably; and there are many options for that road. However, I know everyone and their mother will be gunning for this role too... DPS.

Not many people roll healers, thus making it so I have to roll a healer alt to help out with the equation, but getting pigeonholed into that role based on need can be a distressing predicament.

So far, my top choices are --

Conquerer

Assassin

Barbarian

But I know, once again, everyone and their mother is going to play these classes and "flood the market" with them... so there's the dillema.

Ahh well, I hope it strikes me easily on Saturday.

Anyone else have this problem?

Me me me....I have no clue


PoM, Conquerer, Hox, Demonoligist or Necro still unsure which I'd prefer of the two though probably will only end up with one, Guardian w/polearm, Assassin...something else altogether like what seems to be the unpopular Bear Shaman....Argh, I am so confused :) 

Then of course I will eventually have to settle on a crafting trade since I do like to craft too...Gemcutter, Alchemist, Architecture...Too many options still swirling through my head and only about 17-18 hours or so before I get home to start playing.

I wouldn't doubt if by time the game is officially live on Tuesday if I haven't started at least 3 or 4 characters, but I am going to want to hunker in to one of them to get them out of Tortage before the main rush begins...the fun is seeing who ends up getting the nod after playing around with a few of them.

I think you should roll ConquererAssassinBarbarianRanger   then your mission of picking all of the classes that everyone else is going to pick will be complete!!


The rumor of only 8 characters server wi de though is a bit of a concern for  me though...i'm REALLY hoping that's not the case.


WHen you log in, just pick your class,&# 160;and run with it. I have the first 2 I'm going to 60;use set in my head already :)  P robably start off with HoX, and roll a&# 160;TOS (So I can help with the heals)

I always have issues deciding this stuff too. I am pretty sure I will end up making a Demonologist, just because they do not seem popular. However I like the sound of HoX better and I originally wanted to try a guardian and Bear Shaman but seemed a lot of people were going to go those 3. They were quite popular on the "what are you going to be?" threads. Which lead me to Demonologist, which I had only seen one person say they were making on out of all those type of threads I visited. I will probably make the other 3 as well of course.
