    I have been waiting patiently for horzions to come out for a long time.. who wouldnt wait for the chance to play a Dragon???

  • SoultierSoultier Member Posts: 24
    I can't wait to play a dragon in fact it will be the first char i make. =) in fact will be my only char till i get him to his godly ancient state. =P which with the real time counter will take a while. +) but will be fun no doubt the whole time =P

  • UifzUifz Member Posts: 252
    It wont be fun when everyones a dragon though, since it looks like its going to be the "fan-favorite" while your playing all you see is dragons image

  • SoultierSoultier Member Posts: 24
    Not everyone will be a dragon thou. Hell from articles about the beta it's pretty even. Not everyone is doing dragons. And Plus the Power gamers might try dragons but i seriously doubt they will stick to em when they see how much time it takes for them to really get good. probaly the first week or two that it goes live you will probaly see a ass load of dragons. but after that i think it will start dieing down. and mainly the devoted dragon players will be sticking to theres. image

    I was reading a little about this game and how you can make items.  As you progress with you skill in the art of sword making,  you can add little things to it.  Fire, magic, etc and you will see the effect of it...

    Hi all, new here (yeah, the beta giveaway sucked me in)...

    I'm looking forward to this game.  It has some great ideas, especially the ability to affect the world around you more than in any other game out there that I know of.

    As for dragons, I agree... there will be many at first, then it will thin out.  That's not to say everyone won't TRY a dragon.  I'm sure I will, but it won't be my main.

  • SoultierSoultier Member Posts: 24
    From a artcile i was looking at there thinking about cuting the get to and adult dragon time down a little bit it hink it was close to 6 months. There talking about making it a little easier and makeing it like 3 months and a day. The time to be anicent is still the same i believe which it should be.

    Here is a quote from the HZ site.

     

    "Here is an example of how many permutations of swords one could create with the crafting system. The following numbers are representative of a conservative look at what can be done in Horizons and are in no way the final numbers as additional assets can be created very easily to add content and style. 25 different blades can be placed on 25 different hilts, 10 distinct tassels could be attached to the hilt, 10 shader effects could be placed along the blade or hilt, 10 particle systems can be placed along the blade or rotating around it and 6 metal alloys usable by crafters allow for millions of permutations.

    I am the same way...I love being an archer.  I think from what I have read that the saris will also make great archers.

    I found this link to someone who did some investigating into starter stats...this is just from what he saw in a vid, so it is not 100%.

    But it sure backs up what I said about Saris archers.

    Aye it actually takes RL time I dont think many powergamers want to waist time on that.  Most will be happy with the less damanding characters.  Gald they did this a ncie little way to balance things out and it also adds a little Fantasy background to it, no dragon starts off a bringer of death and chaos it takes time

    It is already looking nice. And Sowhat it might be the best to me or someone else. it may not be to you if not thats your bussiness. And i fully expect some people to find small problems that they don't like and nit pick the game when it comes out just so they can say see i told you it wasn't the best!!! Diffrent flavors for diffrent folks. If you think another game is better or one being made is better more power to you. i personaly think this is the best one. And if nobody likes that  even if it's not out. o well to bad. =)

    Hmm.. I've never liked dragons so much :) never considered them so cool or anything :P but of course they belong to the fantasyworld and everyone has their favorites.. my favorite is probably necromancers image and I like just plain barbarians too. I think I'm gonna try the Fiend in Horizons ;)       How about you all, what's your favorite fantasy character? :D

  • killerTwinkiekillerTwinkie Member CommonPosts: 1,694

    In fantasy.. I dont want to be a dragon. Too big and brutish.  I want something that looks like it has intelligence.. Horizons didnt do a great job on making them look as gallant as I myself see them as.. intelligent yet.. graceful beasts.

    I might not pick the dragon afterall.  Who knows image

    I think that Lineage 2 has the coolest looking characters.. I mean damn they look good :) just the way I like it. That explains, that the designers are korean, japanese and korean do the best looking    game and anime characters :D
