Torn on what to do.

I tried a Warrior Priest in Open Beta and it was pretty fun.  Healing wasn't awesome, but could do some decent melee and seemed like a good fighter-cleric combo (as name would suggest).  It's very tempting to make one tomorrow when I can log in, but Dwarf Engineer looked interesting, as did swordmaster, so I could use some input from others on the order classes.  I also tank in other games usually so was considering Ironbreaker, but tanking in yet another MMO might kill me.

Tanks are useful in pvp here though

Being able to absorb 1/2 of the damage meant for the healer=uber.

As a Veteran of DAOC, defending a keep as a melee character was tough.  This is before they would break down the walls or doors of course.  It usually starts off as a ranged/bolt/aoe fight.

 

So, Im curious about how they will incorporate melee characters into that aspect.  Bows?  Fixed weapons on the castle walls?  Boiling oil?

Guessing it'll be similar to DAoC - which is unfortunate.. but that's the way it is.. gotta wait to do some head chopping.

I'm going to say Warrior Priest because you usually tank but are getting kinda bored of it.  The Warrior Priest is interesting because they're actually Tanker/healers.  So, you're sort of segwaying into new territory with that while sticking with what you know.

Bah should've figured that destruction choice would end up on top.

 

Going to do a coin flip between WP and engineer for which I make first.
