class differences
i'm going to post it here again cause i put a lot of work in it and it might be usefull (and it got forgotten):
hi, I see a lot of new players asking 'what's the best class' or 'what class whould i pick' so i'll put the subclasses here and in my experience the positive and neg sides, i'll try to be as detailed as possible. Archers: Hunters: Purpose: scouts, back stabbers and debuff enemies (this should be light infantry) Strong against: support conjs and warjurers Weak against: marks, locks, knights and barbs Preferable terain: woods and open space Advantage: fast, able to tame pets or go in camo and sneak up on enemies, scouting (eyes of the army), can take allies in camo (stalker suroundings). Disadvantage: low defence, low attack. Marksman: Purpose: weaken the enemy before they charge, snipe out mages and cc them (these would be heavy infantry). Strong against: warlocks, hunters, support conjurers, warjurers and if they are at long range barbs. Weak against: knights, close ranged barbs Preferable terain: fort or open spaces Advantage: longest range in game, good defence and attack buffs, a lot of crowd controle spells. Disadvantage: medium damage, short bursts of damage (not that good in long lasting battles, spells have long cooldown), area's are next to useless, no ally buffs. Warriors Barbarian Purpose: ramming gates, smashing enemies, these are the real juggernauts in game. Strong against: anything that comes to close. Weak against: marksmen with full range, locks and warjurers. Preferable terain: woods, rocky area's, fort. Advantage: massive damage, very powerfull area's, very powerfull skills, fastest class in game. Disadvantage: melee class, medium armour. Knights Purpose: tanking, protecting conjurers and the rest of the army Strong against: hunters, marksmen, support conjurers and warjurers Weak against: locks and barbs Preferable terain: woods, fort and rocky area's Advantage: highest defence in game, good cc resists, usefull skills Disadvantage: melee class, low damage. Mages Warlocks Purpose: nuking enemies, weakening the enemy before charge Strong against: anything in range Weak against: marksmen, barbs (when they are to close) Preferable terain: fort, open spaces Advantage: very powerfull spells, lot's of ranged area's, high damage DOT's (damage over time). Disadvantage: low defence, medium range, long cast times and cooldowns. Conjurers This class has 2 sides of the coin: support conjurers and warjurers. Support conjurers: heal allies Warjurers: put a lot of points in the mental tree and have there for more offencive powers. Preferable terain: support conjs: forts, woods, rocky area's warjurers: everywhere Advantage: very versatille (either healing or killing), can summon creatures, good defencive spells Disadvantage: medium range, support conjurers can not defend themselves against attacks. Side note: it's not because the classes are put like this that they can not defeat a class they are weak against, it's all about setup and skill, what i tried to put here is that one class has an advantage over the other, but then if for example a marks comes to close to a lock or he's spells get resisted he's dead meat. What a good: Hunter must do: scout the area around the army, sneak attacks Marksman must do: kill cupport conjurers, dizzy locks, weaken barbs Barbarian must do: know when to rush (it's no use when there is 50m between you and the enemy and you have no ranged support), when you get close, kill anything in your path. Knight must do: defend conjurers, cast protective aura's, absorbe incomming damage. Conjurer must do: most people will love you when you are support conjurer since you can resurect them and heal them, you need to be able to handle some stress tough. For warjurers: know how to place your cc's and how to keep the enemy from you, this class can be a killing machine if played right. Warlocks must do: nuke the devil out of the enemy with the area's, stay clear of marksmen fire, since they will dizzy you so you can't do a thing, ppl will love you for a well placed sultar's terror or frozen storm. Some explanation: Cc's: crowd controle this means: knock down, can not attack, dizzy, freez and stun Knock down: you knock the enemy to the ground so he can not move nor attack Can not attack: the enemy can not attack but can still move Dizzy: the enemy can not cast spells Freez: the enemy is frozen, not able to attack or move but can not be attacked Stun: the enemy is not able to attack nor move but when you attack him the effect vanishes. Debuff: lowering the enemies status For example: lowering speed, lowering attack damage etc Buff: boost your own or you allies status For example: more attack damage, more speed etc Think that's all, so i hope it can serve as somekind of help regards
