List of non-stupid classes?
|
Hibernia
Animist: A very unique class. You summon little stationary pets that last a minute that act as turret guns. Excellent at PVE and castle defense in RVR.
Bard: "musical" class. Think Bard from Everquest, but with healing abilities. Crucial for PVE and RVR.
Blademaster: Dual-wielding melee DPS class. Has a special ability called "Triple Wield" which increases damage temporarily. Usually the Main Assist in RVR groups.
Champion: a melee DPS class that specializes in debuffing. Can absolutely cripple stats, but harder to find RVR groups. Mostly solos in RVR.
Druid: the main healer. Gets a pet, heals, buffs. Pretty standard healer. Needed in PVE and RVR.
Eldritch: main magical damage dealer. Gets bolts, which are massive damaging spells. You can kill some people in two hits. Also gets a 9 second stun for extra fun.
Enchanter: standard pet class. Very good at PVE. Gets PBAOE spells that wreck mobs.
Hero: standard defensive tank. Also gets "Celtic Spear", which is a badass two hander weapon. Can shapeshift into a moose to increase health.
Mentalist: DoTs and HoTs. Interesting class, but DoTs aren't used in RVR as they break CC. But like an Eldritch if specced differently. Also gets the "Clarity" of DAOC, so they're loved in groups.
Nightshade: Assassin class. With spell casting. Like a normal rogue, but they can cast a couple of spells. Solo RVR
Ranger: Archer class. They get self buffs, which are nice. Can also dual wield. Solo RVR
Valewalker: Monk class. You wear caster robes and carry a huge scythe, with self buffs and nukes as well. Hybrid melee, magic DPS. Solo RVR
Warden: An interesting hybrid melee class. Can be a healer or a buff/warrior type. Sort of like a Paladin.
Albion
Armsman: plate wearing main tank. Also gets access to Polearm and Crossbow for DPS when needed. Needed in both PVE and RVR.
Cabalist: standard pet class. Very good at PVE. Gets DoTs that wreck mobs. Also has a focus buff that turns your pet into a beast that kils everything, but you can't move or else it cancels. Needed in PVE/RVR
Cleric: the main healer. Heals, buffs, and casts lightning bolts (smiting). Needed in PVE and RVR.
Friar: Monk class. Uses a Staff to beat shit up. Excellent soloer in PVE. Melee DPS or heals.
Infiltrator: Assassin class. Gets more skill points than other assassin classes. Solo RVR.
Mercenary: Dual-wielding melee DPS class. Has a special ability called "Dirty Tricks" which makes enemy attacks miss you temporarily. Usually the Main Assist in RVR groups.
Minstrel: "musical" class. Absolutely OP in RVR. Can't heal like Bard, but much more diverse.
Necromancer: Unique class where you play through your pet and you're invincible until your pet dies. Very good PVE soloer. Not useful in RVR, unfortunately.
Paladin: Gets "Chants" which are temporary buffs but people twist them like a Bard. Wears Plate. Very good at PVE solo/group. Rarely used in RVR though.
Reaver: Kind of like Shadowknights. More DPS focused though. Gets flail weapons and great RVR soloers. Can stun people and then hit them in the back, pretty much gameover if they stun you.
Scout: Archer class. No self-buffs like other archers. But gets shield skills and can stun. Bow slightly out damages and longer range than other archers.
Sorcerer: Think Enchanter from EQ, but with way more DPS. OP RVR class. Can kill entire groups by himself if skilled.
Theurgist: Pet class but with a twist. Fire and forget pets. Great for interrupting casting. Excellent at solo PVE and great for groups in RVR.
Wizard: the uber magic DPS class. Gets bolts which can two shot people. Also gets PBAOE spells, which PVE groups love. Not as good in RVR, but not gimped.
Midgard
Berserker: Dual-wielding melee DPS class. Has a special ability called "Berserk" which makes every melee attack a critical temporarily. Usually the Main Assist in RVR groups.
Bonedancer: Unique pet class. Can summon like 5 pets at once and can mix and match, spell caster, archer, healing pets, etc. Very good PVE soloer.
Healer: the main healer. Also gets really good CC and a nice Haste buff. Needed in PVE and RVR.
Hunter: Archer class. Gets a pet dog! And self buffs. Uses 2 handed spear for melee as well.
Runemaster: the uber magic DPS class. Gets bolts which can two shot people. Also gets running speed buff. Cool AOE spell effects.
Savage: Monk class. Fights with...sharpened buck antlers? I think. Can quad-hit and gets 15 second self buffs that need refreshing (annoying), but absolutely wrecks in PVE and RVR.
Shadowblade: Assassin class. Can use a two handed weapon to backstab people with. Solo RVR
Shaman: Main buffing class. Can also heal. Very good solo PVE. RVR groups want buffs though, so that can be boring. Amazing kiter though.
Skald: Musical class. Think Bard, but without instruments. Excellent soloer in RVR, but groups want you too. Very popular class.
Spiritmaster: standard pet class. Very good at PVE. Gets PBAOE spells that wreck mobs.
Thane: Hybrid class. Shield warrior, but with self buffs and lighting bolt attacks.
Warrior: Defensive tank. Absolute beast. Stuns with shield, switches to two hander and wrecks people.
