Poll -- which is my WORST character?

Post by Brother Laz » Thu Mar 25, 2004 6:49 pm

Not that I can do anything about it - in the grand scheme of things, changing already posted characters would ruin other stuff including item modifiers and uniques - but when I steal the last character [High Elf] from Joel, being the last character I'd like to know what I should not do anymore. :)

[Edit: the other three are Joel's characters, not mine]

hey if you take out the shadow priest im goin to kick your ass :P. hes my fav class atm :D. i voted for beastmaster, cause i really like the shadowpriest and the templar and because there are allready enough chars that can summon something or stuff liek that, i think theres no nead for a beastmaster actually.

Summons are NOT meant to be a specialisatino of any class. They're kind of fillers skills. No mater the character, summons is a way to get out of truble, that's all. The core skills are the atcual attacks, not the minions.

doenst change my opinion ^^. beastmaster in my opinion sounds to be the most boring of the 3 mentioned classes. but maybe thats cause i prefer magic classes over fighters :).

My favorite of these are Templar and since I was forced to choose I voted on Beastmaster aswell (Add an 8th character instead and we don't need to choose :))

voted for the templar, seems slightly limited in melee if he runs agianst to many opponents, and slightly basic in terms of his melee skills, the overall hit and be hit effect on his skills is a very cool addition

about summons as filler skills, not every class needs summons, much less 4-5 of them, there are alot of options in the game that work different systems that get some of the same effect as summoning such as converting an enemy, raising an enemy, cursing enemies to attack each other, and any of these could be modified to fit in well with your characters rather than relying on summons

between the three of you, who are incredible modders and I have seen some vary varied skills from all of you before, but you are filling a tree in every character with very similar skills, sort of limiting some diferent play styles

just my opinion though
confidant . . . cocky . . . lazy . . . dead

I personal like the additions of summoned or converted minions I always like to have a small party to work with. With the addition of an increased game difficulty over all. I think in the end most people will like having a bit of back up. :)

I think that filler may have been a poor choice of words. ;)
Sometimes we win with greater firepower, through sheer numbers or more powerful weapons, but for the most part it is knowledge that defines our victories. Know something and it has lost its power over you.

Ask a high elf to generate a sunstone with +to Stampede on it, and give it to your beastmaster. :D
