So, I've decided to reroll, since it seems like veno just isn't the class for me. But, the issue is, I can't decide what to reroll as b:cry
So um, I don't know if this is useful at all posting this on here, but I just need suggestions/comments/whatever cause I wanna get to working on a char.. b:sad
So basically what I'm saying is that I don't know what I want to reroll as.
Sorry if I sound like a noob for saying this b:surrender.
Help please? b:shutup

    Roll a BM :D

    1) BMs level fast
    2) Can aoe grind
    3) excel at PvP and PvE (because of flexible weapon paths)
    4) Everyone loves a good BM in a squad :D
    5) Don't die alot, unlike casters
    6) I like cake

    My advice to use is try them all to level 20, and pick the one that's fighting style you like best.

    Sounds like a bad case of: I don't know how to play the easiest class in the game!

    If rerolling, and you want a magic class, I suggest the cleric, they do a decent amount of damage, it's a MP waster, but at least you can save on HP?

    Oh and please do remember that there is a HUGE difference in speed between the venos and other magical classes.
    I call it how I see it.

    I suggest narrowing it down. Start by choosing what you like most, melee, casting or ranged. Then simply look at each classes pros and cons of the group.
    It's not my job to shut you down on a suggestion. It's a pleasure, though.

    I suggest you figure out what you want from playing this game?

    You didn't like your veno, why? Is it because it's boring that you use the same skill over and over again? and have to grind alone most of the time?

    If you want to help others and be sought about in squads be a cleric, or a barb.

    If you want to have many pretty skills do a wiz or psy.

    If you want do melee and don't have to spam skills, BM or sin or archer maybe. (I say this coz most of them bm in TT just do normal atk and be chatting all the time. While me being cleric or wiz always busy spaming kills >.<)

    First, you need to decide if you like being in the midst of a fight or standing back. If you like to be in the middle of it, you narrow down to Assassin, Blademaster, or Barbarian. If you like being away from the fray, you have your choice of Psychic, Wizard, Archer, or Cleric.

    If you choose the melee path, you then need to decide how you want to play. Personally, I found myself annoyed at not hitting almost every single time, so Assassin turned out to be right for me. However, it is all about how you rate survivability, pot costs, and killing speed. If you place survivability, roll a Barb. If you want killing speed and don't mind pot costs, roll an axe Blademaster. If you don't rate survivability being low and just want to kill quickly, roll and Assassin and choose whether you want to be a skill spammer or a spark spammer, spark spammer being the less costly.

    If you choose distance attacks, you'll have to rate it on whether you like to help people, or do damage. If you like helping, pick the Cleric. If you want to do very high damage, pick a Wizard. If you want to get a lot of critical hits, roll the Archer. If you want to be able to stand there and let the mob kill itself while you do damage to it, take a Psychic.

    Best I can say though, research each class in their respective forums and that will give you the best idea of what each is like.

    OP, seriously try a bit harder. you don't tell us why you disliked venos and don't give us even the slightest clue as to what sort of character you would like to play.

    I will say this, after playing veno chances are you'll feel gimped in some aspect of whatever class you choose, so try to find something you really like.

    Hey u BM sup with casters? b:angry

    What I can tell u veno is the following do what u want but, if u can spend good of money in cashshop and can wait until lvl 79+ then wizard is the class for u.

    Note: Wizards SUCK from lvl 20-40 but a 80+ pure wizard with good gear kicks asses and at 90+ is just OP

    Well, the class least like venomancer is probably barbarian.

    It's very refreshing to take a break from being a venomancer and be a little baby tiger.

    Rawr! I pounce! I claw! I need heals!

    Great fun.

    Sorry, should have said more. I didn't like veno since it was so repetitive, and it was almost TOO easy. I do like magic classes though.

    - roll a wizzie if you're patient with dying plenty at the beginning but powerful endgame
    - roll a cleric if you want to be loved by all in squad (unless you're a failed one..)
    - roll a psychic if you wanna DD and aggro steal

    Did you even read her other posts? She said she didn't want to quit, she likes the game. Why waste your time posting "just quit" when she simply said she didn't want to? Seems like you're trying to up your post count to me.


    Lila, you're undecided again? Hmm. Since you like magic classes, roll a Cleric, Psy, or Wiz a little around 30-35. And decide if you like or don't like it. Then roll another class just to try it.

    Uh, if you have played all the classes and can't decide, maybe it's time for a new game?

    Most classes in the game spam a certain skill or skills to kill mobs-- repetitive is how it is. Though, BH runs where the unexpected happen are the real fun of the game. XD

    I know you love the magic classes, but, I'm gonna have to recommend BM. They die a lot in earlier levels, but, you definitely don't have as much 'repetitive' feeling on them. If you build them right, you can explore all four weapon paths, which all have different uses (axes aoe, spears range and bleed, swords one on one good damage, fists lightning fast attacks and great accuracy).

    For casters, I'd say Cleric. They can self heal, have phys and magic attacks for the resist mobs, and can take a hit. While healing might get a little repetitive, it is a challenge looking out for the entire squad and keeping them alive, 'specially on a crazy run. =)

    Sorry, should have said more. I didn't like veno since it was so repetitive, and it was almost TOO easy. I do like magic classes though.

    My opinions that might or might not match your preferences:

    BM:
    + Very versatile in a lot of situations (DD, tank, protecting, mob control)
    + 4 weapon paths that you have to think when and what you want to learn
    - Not magic class

    Cleric:
    + Magic class
    + Easier to get into random squads
    + Fun when in low lvl or fail squads
    - Repetitive

    Archer:
    + Relaxing
    + Straightforward skill choice
    - Not magic class

    I can't speak for barb, wizard and veno though. Barb was tedious for me. Wizards are all right so far, but haven't found the passion to play yet. Played veno till 49, and am mediocre at it.

    It'd help more if you rate the following in order of importance:
    1) Class costs
    2) Survivability
    3) Variation in skills/experience
    4) Roles in squad (what you prefer to do)
    5) etc etc (can't think of anything else)

    As Dunes said, BM is rarely repetitive or boring. Cleric would be my next choice. To me, both are very useful in squad. Can't speak for others, but so far archers are pretty good at saving clerics and wizards.

    But I'm speaking from a perspective of someone who likes to survive on the edge, work in a squad, rely more on physical attacks, do damage and have the ability to heal. Thus my choices. Not too concerned about tanking, and not much a fan of magic.

    As someone who has one of each class (even the Tideborns, which i loathe), I can understand not being able to choose lol. My advice? Keep leveling them all. Play whatever you're in the mood for. Any class is going to be repetitive to some extent. That's just part of the game. Killing something over and over for a quest or grinding is going to feel repetitive, even if you're using different skills to kill them. That's why I like to mix it up and play whatever I'm in the mood for. My veno was fun for a while, but i eventually got pretty tired of her, so she's retired for now, probably until I get a herc (sometime 10 years from now lol). My cleric's starting to feel tired too. Lately I've been enjoying the bm and the archer a good bit. And the wizzie is always fun too. In any case, whatever you decide, have fun and good luck. b:victory
