My main character is Maidenhead, a Cimmerian Conqueror I think, and although I’m still torn between two-handed and dual-wielding, I’m enjoying the general ability to tank. At 22 I can take on 2 or 3 25s pretty comfortably, but seem to be able to draw aggro from roughly a millions miles away. I’ve also started an Assassin which I’m just beginning to work through Tortoise now, but I’m interested to see how a stealthy character works in a MMONG. In Oblivion/Morrowind in the past I’ve always tended to go for Stealth/Melee types, but not sure how such a character would work in a game like AoC which currently seems to favour angry smashy types. Not too tempted by magic characters yet, but it’s doubtless something I’ll investigate in the future.
In terms of being a MMONG, I’m still very much playing it as a single player game with a chat room. Not sure how long that will last into the game as I get higher up, but the teaming system doesn’t seem to be nearly as effective or straight-forward as CoX, but that may just be because that’s what I’m used to. I’m pretty much playing this like Dog Pants played CoH, only with <strike>more</strike> levelling.
the spider noble district is fucking awesome.
