BillMurphyBillMurphy Former Managing EditorMember LegendaryPosts: 4,565

With Skyforge being the hot new game on the block right now, it makes sense that so many of us are playing Allods and Obsidian's latest. But there are an awful lot of classes in the game, and some take a lot of work to unlock. So why not let us help you decide which class to work towards with this week's quiz?

Read on to find out What Skyforge Class You Should Play.

    Now, which one of you will adorn me today?

  • DerrosDerros Member UncommonPosts: 1,216

    It gave me archer.  

     

    Im not sure which class im going to run with.  ive been having success running with cryomancer solo right now.

     

    Im not sure about lightbinder, having to do targeting toggles gets annoying.  I think alchemist may be my go to support, I prefer the being able to hold down left click, but ive only tried it in the training room.

     

    Ive tried the gunner and knight as bonus classes for missions, im surprised by how much i was 'getting' the knight, I usually dont go for tank classe.  I havent tried the paladin yet, so I just might have to.  I really enjoyed the gunner, again holding down left click ftw.

    Off topic, but not sure why this game is getting so much flair.

     

    Yes it looks pretty and the idea of god-form and all of that sounds really neat...

    But the combat, the core of the game that Allods is hyping, is very Similar to that of Neverwinter which released a few years ago.  It felt no different to me.

     

    Also, I cannot rebind Left Mouse Button(LMB) or Right Mouse Button(RMB) to movement keys.  Ive posted this in the beta forums months ago, and was told that this was not going to change.  I am definitely not the only person to use the mouse for movement...yet this simple feature/fix could not be done.  Since I would need to re-learn how to play video games, I passed on Skyforge.

    edit: I got beserker

    Skyforge seems, to me at least, more of a pure experience, for people who just want to either

    A) progress or watch number go up and unlock things

    B) want to just run dungeons with other people.

    Got Cryo.  Cryo was easiest for me to level.  I'm having a blast with Archer.

    Lightbinder, which is my main. 

    As far is the combat goes, it is similar to NWO but better. I felt like it was the combat that I had hope for in NWO. As for as the bosses go, the mechanics are much more interesting, not just simply throwing more add at you and increasing the bosses health.

    All die, so die well.

    What i am going to tell you could be shocking for many. A lot of players are actually having fun in Skyforge. hence, all the flair.

    It might not bring anything new to the MMO world but the overall package is really enjoyable. I'm glad it is getting hype/flair because it deserves a space in the mmo market.

    Slayer is an amazing class, easy to unlock and solid in both pve,pvp.

    I am a bit disappointed in that I was never offered the opportunity to select "Kill them all, strip them naked and then sell everything they had."

    I got Gunner...

    Ratero.

    Kinetic... I hate Kinetic.
  • RorhcRorhc Member UncommonPosts: 115

    Necromancer......really?

    Meh.

    This could end up being very interesting.

  • sinooosinooo Member CommonPosts: 2
    Got the Kinetic. Had a lot of fun with him in the Training Area, but still aimed for the Monk. So much fun to hit the stupidity out of the heads with a pole in a crazy air blows!

    Every game has haters but some people stretch to diss this game in every aspect, if you are a true gamer and a true MMORPG gamer at that you couldn't hate EVERY aspect about this game. As a City of Heroes Veteran than combination of some big "open world" zones but a ton of instanced zones is a welcome system, I love all the flashy AOEs, the star wars like feel mixed with the (unbalanced) but fun as hell PvP and Skyforge is definatly worth the hype.

    Alchemist..

    Well.. doesn't matter. If the game can survive for 2 years and still have healthy population, I might spend some time to try it out.
