Already stated no stealth in WAR.
"Society in every state is a blessing, but government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one ..." - Thomas Paine
Cant the Witch Hunters stealth? I thought they could. And possibly the Marauders too?
There is zero stealth in WAR. Mythic has purposely removed it, long duration buffs (buffbots) and a couple of other things as well.
High Elves need some loving. Though, I voted Dark Elf.
I keep trying to tell you guys the most overpowered class so far is Ironbreaker followed by black ork. Forget what you know about "omg i wanna deal damage" that works on wow, this is not wow. The general principle of the game is what makes these 2 classes insane amounts of powerful. The longer you fight the more powerful you become because of morale. The ironbreaker becomes even MORE powerful by damage he takes or party members take thus building as grudge. by the nature of the class though, they are heavy armored and take alot of damage thus will always be around to collect morale and see all of their party members take damage to build grudge. I would liken my time playing group pvp as an ironbreaker to playing wow as a twink prot warrior in a BG where nobody else has anything over greens. Your damage delt to damage taken ratio is just off the charts. You are hard to CC and you prety much negate most physical damage. so if you run around and beeline for the caster classes (let everyone else beat on you) then your going to live a very long time and kick a lot of booty.
I dont think any class can beat them 1v1, at least not when I was playing them.
Yeah I hope the population isn't anything close to this, mainly speaking about the elf populations, because if they are being a high elf on the elf island is going to suck LOL. Dark Elfs are going to own that island.
One thing I don't get. Goblins/Orcs are the same race (technically and game wise) Why give them their own catagory. Does that not scew the numbers a bit?
Just add the 2 percents of Goblins and Orcs and thatll be the Greenskins percent.
Well, goblins and orcs are not the same race at all. However, they do fall under the same catagory of "Greenskins". I think its easy to see why they are called greenskins, don't you think? I do see you're point though. If a person wants to be a goblin, they only have two choices of classes. They can't be a choppa and such. While if a person wants to play any of the other races(with the exception of orcs) they have 4 choices.

Witch hunter it is then.Sad no stealth though.
I just hope Elves have a druid type class.

I have always loved playing stealther classes. I loved my ranger to death on DAOC. I loved hunting other stealthers..or taking the other groups healer out at the perfect time, etc. and so on.
But with that said...I'm kinda glad there won't be stealth. The majority of stealthers just want to gank noobs, or kill someone while they are fighting 3 or 4 mobs already...they are generally a pain in the arse and give the few honorable stealthers a bad name.
It will probably be a better game over all with no stealth, and if they can actually get rid of buffbots...I like this game better already..I hated having to have a buffbot just to live through the first 5 seconds of a 1v1.

I can also tell you that Buffbots will not be in WAR as well as Stealth. The long duration buffs have been removed from the game. Mythic has really learned from the mistakes they made in DAoC and are trying to have this game work from the get go. Will it be perfect? Nope. There will be unforeseen balance problems, that's life in the world of MMOs. Will it be fun? That seems to be the consensus of everyone who has played the game to this point and been able to talk about it. I do believe Paul Barnett put it best a couple months back...."Fun, you ****ers." That what WAR is going to be about.
If i get the game at launch i will probably be playing a Dwarven Engineer. I am also intrigued by the Witch Hunter.
I'll end up playing some variety of darkelf most likely. Pretty much just cause they look cool, and I loved the lore from the 'Malus Darkblade' series. Other than that, I have no idea about classes and stuff, I really don't care. I'll figure it out when the game starts.
Maybe this time I won't start off with the gimpiest character in the entire game...though I am good at sniffing those out and insisting they can be good if well played.

I plan to be a orc, simply because i enjoy their personality, their culture, and basically who doesn't want to be a member of da boyz! I was planning on being a witch hunter at the beginning but I really didn't like the whole human appearance and armors.
How do u know what any class will be for dark elf, what site do u get it from? do u have a link?
I always played Chaos back when I played the tabletop games, so they will be my first choice. I'm always an alt-whore though, so I'm sure I'll have one of everything eventually.
Probably go with Chaos Chosen or the Zealot. The Goblin Squig Herder looks sweet too though. The comment that a dev made somewhere that the Squig Herder "keeps getting weirder and weirder" makes me curious about them. I mean, who wouldn't want to herd toothy, bouncing balls of flesh into combat and sick them on their enemies?
Obviously you're not a golfer.
All Greenskins start off as snottlings. Some grow up to become Goblins and some continue growing to become Orcs. They are two distinct different groups but they both originate as snottlings. Kind of like dogs. You have many breeds of dogs from toy dogs like small Terriers to huge dogs like Irish Wolfhounds but they are all dogs.

i always played de in wfrpl and dark elf army in tabbletop. so if i start to play war ill try only de, perhaps some corsair or cold one knight if the introduce them
I can bet that if they put the White lions class for High Elves there will be a lot of people playing them
It's not the White Lions we want. It's the Dragon Princes of Caledor!!!
Orc all da way!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAGH!
