Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning (WAR)

[Just Kartz]

I can tell you this, Dave, it doesn't get any better once you hit 60. The only quests you'll get will be Party quests, or "Wanted" quests which wants you to kill stuff that's way above your level. Dx

While this is here, I might as well announce the classes I'm playing.  For Destruction I'm planning to play a healing focused Zealot and for Order a Witch Hunter, though I don't have a mastery plan yet.  Anyone know if you're allowed to have characters from both sides on the same server?  Also, we'll need to decide on what server type to play on.  I want the most hardcore type there is.  So far that appears to be Open RVR.

[Just Kartz]

I'm going either Magus, Marauder or Black Orc / Shaman here myself. Mixed plans for both the magus/marauder, Black Orc'll be a tank, and the shaman will be Drain Life/Healing specced.

Open RvR sounds awesome. Out of curiousity, though, where're you from?

[Dave]

daves either:

witch hunter or engineer (most likely)
then either a black orc 2hand specialist or marauder dps specialist.


magic is GAY.

... Do'h. Dx We won't be able to play together, then. EU and US get separate servers like WoW, I believe ...

you got dave: english.

[Just Kartz]

Awesome. You'll be joining me at a random Open RvR server, then.
On the other hand, the two classes you mentioned are both "Order".. I plan on playing Destruction. ;_;

yup. all the good players will be on destruction, since ally are gays in wow, i went hord and pvp was way to easy, this time ill be on the underdog team, last stand against a shitton of orcs and chaos.

[Just Kartz]

Hmm.. you do have a point there. Althought I played alliance in WoW. xD (Thus, Destruction seems far more interesting to me.)
But I could always roll a random Order alt, and the other way around, eh? I'd go ... Witch Hunter, ... or Iron Breaker.

pretty much doesnt matter what class you pick there's a mirror for it on the other faction.

runepriest / zealot
bright mage / sorceress
white lion / squig herder
ect....

so your choice comes down to server populations. i would recommend picking the lower of the two factions, faster scenario queues, which will be your primary source of renown points. untill city raids at tier4 , but that's long term.

as for comments about developers commitment to their product, i have no doubts.
http://www.warhammeralliance.com/forums/...hp?t=63427 click it to see devs shittalking themselves , when have you ever seen another company tear themselves up like that?

as for comments about Age of conan:
hahahah fuck you guys for buying into funcom and their hype.

runepriest / zealot -no! healer / status changer
bright mage / sorceress -no! offensive dps / defenseive dps
white lion / squig herder -def no!  mele dps /ranged dps.

(the classes can be changed to suit other roles, but that is what they are described as.)

There are small differences, but for the most part the classes are close mirrors.  Zealot is actually the closest to pure healer on the entire chaos side.  Sorceress has the same "Combustion" mechanic as BM, just with a different name.  All I know about the other two is that they're both pet classes, I'm sure there are other similarities.

[Just Kartz]

I don't think Magus or Engineer have any 'mirrors', or any class for that matter. Althought some are rather close to resambling to others, there are obvious reasons as of why. (Such as tanks, for example.)
Magus's a debuffer as it stands at the moment (from all the forums and videos I've seen so far), and got the lowest ranged DPS available, partially thanks to their pets being totally f***ed up. Althought I'm keeping my hope up for that class, I'm certain they'll fix those issues.

As for what Vandamguy said regarding them tearing themselves up, I wouldn't think so. Just look at all the "comments" regarding it. Everyone's happy that they announced these bugs out, and that they're working on them, rather than keeping quiet about the bugs. I really don't mind them announcing it in the way they did. Surely, it was kind of funny to see them announced in such a "easy" kind of way, but.. at least they announced them, and that they'd fix them! :>

Benito, I'd think they'd be more dispersed.

That and, when the 40k MMO, there will probably be a shit-ton of Space Marines.    And a Fuck-ton of ORKS to counter.

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGHH!

Not a fan of MMO's.

Sure they're fun for a while, but the grinding gets old.

grinding is what separates the bitches (you) from the cream (me)
by not even trying mmo's you are lower than the bitches that will ragequit after level 10.

If we can agree on a faction and a server I'll jump on the bandwagon.

I don't really pledge allegiance to any faction.  :-* :-*

Also, can't people on Europe choose a US server, or viceversa?  In WoW, you can do so (now with tasty Latin American Servers!).

Anyway, if we get this shit together it'd be fun.
