So i saw this similar titled posts in Lost City's and Heave's Tear's forum.


"What players of your particular class influenced you to become the Veno/Cleric/Barb/Archer/Swordman/Magic Guy that you are today? Let's have a positive discussion. :D"

Might be interesting to see what you have here.
Thanks Chillum for the nice Sig.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

    Does it have to be the same class? :-(
    My rolemodel was definetely CHILI, when i first started this game and met him on another PW version, he seemed to know everything in and out and was like the most amazing dude at making money without
    any usage of the CS.

    Thanks for inspiring me, haha :D

    Hello Perfect World. Look at your cleric, now back to me, now back to your cleric, now back to me. Sadly it isn't me. But if you stopped being a noob and started wearing sunglasses you could act like you're me. Look down, back up, where are you? You're on Dreamweaver with the cleric your cleric could be like. What's in your hand, back at me. It's an inventory filled with the gear you want. Look again, the gear is now diamonds. Anything is possible with sunglasses. I'm flying on starter wings.

    No one here will likely remember her but I play my class in memory of Alektos. When I originally started playing PWI it was her who said I should try a Venomancers. I quit that later played a couple different classes and then even other PWI games. She died in January and when I returned to play I started a veno again. Everytime I see my little fox I remember how her cleric used to carry me around while we explored the gameworld.

    Below is a screenshot of her and myself on the very first day I played PWI. I always remember her as my best friend and sister, though we were not related.

    The first bm I looked up to was Matthew, until I met Peenice. Then I looked up to Peenice so much that I spent like $200 on zerk fists. Woops.

    When I first started playing a cleric, I had no one to look up to. I played the class because I enjoyed it. But I was terrible. I joined my second faction and met there a cleric named Yrana. He was the cleric that helped me to get where I am today.

    b:sad I miss you Rafa.

    i remember looking up to Zeratul at level 60 and later on Seraphim. Zeratul was the reason i decided to go LA in my 70s and Seraphim is the one who brought me back to arcane. I was going to go demon, but i decided it was time to be my own role model and go sage b:chuckle.

    I still talk to Zeratul from time to time but i miss Seraphim and his witty comments ;-;
    Sins are Scissors. Psychics are Rocks.
    Archers, Venos, Barbs, Wizards, BMs, Mystics, Seekers are Paper.
    ...and Clerics are Mushrooms.
    Paper beats Rock. Scissors beats Paper. Scissors also happens to beat Rock...until Rock gets 50k+ soulforce at which point Rock becomes an unstoppable killing machine that beats Paper... and would beat Scissors but it can't find Scissors, because Scissors are invisible.
    So Scissors beat Paper and avoids Rock, and that is called BALANCE. -cheze

    Chuck norris inspired my bm. ;p

    j/k j/k

    No one really inspired me to play a bm, it was just the class that appealed to me the most upon creation. I <3 swords. =x

    My Cleric[/] was inspired by a number of my old friends in the first true guild I was in, Rednite, Shinsei, Calyipto, and foxydoughnut, all of them were pretty kickass in pvp... or pve. ;p

    Barbarian was inspired by another person from the first 'true' guild I was in, was Smoken.

    I do have other classes, but I can't really say who.. or what inspired them, maybe I was getting bored of my other characters. xD

    I started a Cleric because a friend of mine was one and told me they were pretty cool. I made one and we started playing together, a few weeks later they were unable to play the game but I stuck with my Cleric. It was my first class and I do well at it, I've been playing for a little over a year now and I still think my Cleric is badass >:D

    Though... I do have a BM alt that I occasionally play, I made him because I wanted to beat the **** out of stuff instead of healing :O

    Though... Demon Sparked Tempesting random people at OT is pretty fun too b:chuckle

    I looked up to Lightaine to be the best elf I could be.

    But before that, I looked up to my friends sadpuma and Tutankhamun on HT along with Senyo.

    when i firs tplayed PWI, i chose an archer because I was watching a BBC series of Robin Hood, and i like action dramas like that (Jonas Armstrong- fit o.o) b:chuckle

    now, if i had a role model for each class...

    assasin: Flotsam - hes one of my best freinds and the highest level sin in my fac, 87 o.o

    psychic: Ankuo - well hes, cute, so i guess that counts? b:surrender

    archer: Chezedude - fisting, hes doin it right :D

    cleric: Zanryu - sure lots of people hate him, but i would never hate him at all b:cute

    Wizard+Veno - Thrivelia - the two timer XD shes a veno and wizard bundles into one!

    blademaster: hmm.. i actually dont know any O_O other then Zanryus alt Zoll XD

    Barbarian: TheDoomed - he is the ultimate wand barb, that is allb:laugh

    Watching Transcend's PvP videos pretty much sold me on becoming an archer.
    I hope I can become as epic an archer as him someday. D:

    I started an archer to pk Lylfo...when that didnt work out, I made an assasin to pk Lylfo.
    You're such an inspiration Lylfo!

    I always and still do look up to Nyte.

    When I first met Nyte he was the leader of a small faction called TheDivine and I was a lowly lvl 29. He helped me with multiple bosses and FB's. When I met him he was only lvl 78. Thus Reaching lvl 78 was my end game goal. However, when I got that far Nyte was already 91, so I took that as my new goal.

    Now I'm 90 myself and Nyte is 101. I don't think I'm going to catch him at that lvl anytime soon and I'm not going to even try. He clearly outclasses me. ^^

    I've never really looked up to anyone and just winged it and did whatever I wanted to do. But one person that I admire in PWI would be... myself LOL

    In all seriousness, everyone is good at what they do in their own ways b:cute
