I'm going to hopefully be grabbing a patron subscription some time after game launch. There will be plenty of land within 2-4 weeks when all the players who aren't sticking around start not paying taxes and/or not renewing subs. I'm just not going to bother, plenty of people have the same idea. If you can't get land anywhere but level 40+ locations you might as well just gather shit up for a bigger / better house when a nicer spot becomes available. | ||

There is currently no way for me to download this game since it just gives you an error saying you don't have enough rights. Im assuming they've shutdown pre-installing. | ||

Im planning an archer/aura/X build, refusing to go shadowplay since its so damn common. Not sure what my last one will be since theres alot of options there, although i want it to be something relatively defensive in one way or another. | ||

2. How do people value survivability compared to CC: increased life and pdef vs CC and CC breaks? I haven't tested Songcraft at all. Are you immobile when you're buffing/debuffing or would I be able to run around and heal while I am buffing/debuffing? | ||

Honestly haven't really given it much thought orz I wanna pew pew and shoot lasers and magic missiles at people, what should I go for? Something with Occultism. Revenant is practicaly THE new PvE shit. Leveling and grinding is a blast, PvP is a bit missing but it's easily changed. Revenant is Occultism, Auramancy and Sorcery. You use Thwart to keep up inspire and then spam Mana Stars for single target, and combine the AoE form Occultism+Sorcery for AoE grinding. For PvP, something like a Reaper is a lot of fun although not as viable a it was before. It's Occultism, Shadowplay and Sorcery. Backflip + Fireball combo is super fun to play in addition to the Mana Stars spam, also you have stealth + a ton of CC from occultism/shadowplay. Casting meteor strike into a group of enemy players is also super fun. Skullknight, so Occultism, Defense and Auramancy is one of the best PvP tanks you can have. Spamming Mana Stars in smaller PvP to damage people is fun, but the real deal starts when you utilize Auramancy+Defense. Blinking into the enemy group, casting implosion + hellspears to CC them; in bigger raids you cast imprison and split off raids so that your raid can pick up the rest. While you stand in the enemy raid, you just cast invincibilty until your friends have cleaned up. If you can miss the laser stars and are content with fireballs, the Daggerspell is the current "fotm" mage. It's Sorcery, Shadowplay and Witchcraft. It has 3-4 combos that it relies on but those are extremely powerful. Witchcraft gives you a ton of CC + surviveability(enervate + grabbing skill); enerveate+ backflip + fireball = endless fireballs; fireballs + bubble + ark lightning means a ton of damage + fall damage, then sleep + meteor strike on asleep target gives the rest. There's also AoE fear (point blank) which you can use to screw with enemy groups. Stealth + a lot of utility from Shadowplay again and this class is a ton of fun to play - hence why 90% of mages you'll see are Daggerspells. There are more classes that are fun, those are just a few. I currently roll Skullknight because we mostly have big battles. On September 15 2014 02:18 Donger wrote: 1.

Are you immobile when you're buffing/debuffing or would I be able to run around and heal while I am buffing/debuffing? 1) Cleric(Songcraft, Vitalism, Auramancy) is the best healer you can have. If someone tells you Songcraft isn't worth it for healing, ask him why. He'll most likely won't have a real answer. Songcraft has 2 great healing skills in addition to their songs that increase atk speed, defense and all that jazz. Songcraft is just soo damn good in groups. You are able to run around while singing, also you can keep up to 4 songs at a time with the proper passives. 2) Surviveabiliity and CC often go hand in hand. If you have witchcraft, you can get 0 heals and still survive 1v3. That is only if you play against people without CC breakers though; it's very random. Just bring enough pots into a figtht. | ||

For small group PvP would you say Cleric is better than Hierophant? | ||

The most OP at the moment is said to be Shadowblade. http://2p.com/8825498_1/ArcheAge-The-Most-Viable-And-Popular-Classes-by-AnotherInfinity.htm | ||

In bigger groups cleric is vastly superior. @TheEmulator: That writeup is okay, but it seems like the author is not very knowledgeable. Edgewalker is a hybrid build and hybrid builds are a good way of screwing yourself - they don't work anymore due to the healing/magic attack split. Shadowblade is a nice class, but I wouldn't say OP. Maybe in 1v1, but no one cares about that. | ||
