Inquiry re: solo ability
Alright, been thinking about playing again, but a different character this time for a wider range of exposure. However, my play style frequently requires solo play since I play 5 minutes here and there, go AFK a lot, etc.
Mages are very easy to solo so my question is to know if any other classes have solo abilities. Down time is not a big issue, but excessive down time would not be preferred.

I have a level 50 hunter and a warlock in the 40's. After I finish warlock I will try a knight or barbarian next. Here is how I see the classes right now and it will change again after the next version is released. Hope this helps.

hrmm, i am wondering why you mention that a hunter is easier to solo with than a marksman.
I only ask because of all the high level archers I have seen (both on the lists on the website and in game) I can count the number of hunters on a single hand and still have fingers left over hehe. The majority of people seem to lean towards marksman for some reason, I am curious to hear more from you on this subject. |

With a pet I was able to level twice as fast as a few marksmen I know. When leveling if you trade taking damage with pet you almost do not need to rest. Often I could level for 2 hours without resting. The reason most take marksman is in RvR and PvP they are much better. As a hunter in RvR fight your pet will die in 2 seconds. Now you’re crippled with 1/2 of your damage taken away. Hunter can't do the same damage that a marksman can without a pet to help and can’t conjure new pet. I also think most that want to hunt with pet would rather conjure them then have to find one when they login or after crash. Trust me got old fetching pet after crash.

ahh ok i gotcha now tyr, thanks alot for the quick reply
Basically Hunter is for the solo artist that wants to go out farming and the marksman (at least in terms of leveling) will have greater damage but has to take all the damage themselves, thus takes more time due to resting. Thanks again, Magister. |
