pvp class to reroll on lc

Surentos - Lost City · October 2010

ok so far i got a 38 archer and he's done ok and 31 wizzy as well (half to update my sig)

these classes are pretty nice but I'm gonna ask a question here cause I'm not sure if either of them will stay together or not.

Q: which class on LC can do decent in pvp and still be fun while not requiring 300+m coin to be viable outside of pvp. for example I lvoe bm's completely and thoroughly but if your not a high aps bm theirs no way in hell you'll find a decent squad, it's the same with veno and herc, or archer and +10 or higher cv. ps: my sig update my bm on sanc is now 84 lol

forgot to add a poll

. but if you mention a class plz plz explain.

Try all the classes and pick one which you're comfortable with. Any class is good if you know how to play it.

sins still can't really find late game squads without stacked -int. as for telling me to try all classes my sig don't seem to wanna update lol. have a couple time but it just won't. i've only got a few classes under 30 one at 30. all the others are 70+'s lol. i just can't seem to figure out which one can work without csing much. (alittle occasionally but not much) and without spending my life in game (work, college ect)

bm's and clerics are the 2 i know the best. clerics take a good chunk of coin to be able to do decently in 3-1's, 2-3 AE, ect. bm's take 200+m to 5aps them. at least 60-100m to 3aps. in order to even find a squad late game lol. otherwise it'd be bm hands down

Barbarians don't cost too much to be good, and you'll always find a squad. But since I haven't played any other class past level 20, I can't really compare them to other classes.

Surentos - Lost City · October 2010

ya barb is my lowest class at a piek lvl of 20. deleted him now he's 7 on sanctuary 0 on LC. he did things so easily it seemed. but to be viable in late game pk I'm not sure what they'd take. it's certainly an idea to look into though

nocturnalbastard · October 2010

If you can't afford to spend lots of time or lots of money in the game, late game and end game will pretty much suck for you with any class.

This game was designed to make money for their company, not allow you to play for free without working hard or spending cash on it.

Adea - Lost City_1363814429 · October 2010

I would say go with Archer or Mage. I am always fond of killing at a distance rather than chasing down someone. b:pleased
I hear Archers are very good when it comes to end game and there is a certain archer on Lost City I see massively owning people when it comes to PvP, but you never know as he also seems to be heavily cash shopped as well.
Wizard is also a great choice due to their massive amount of overall damage.
If I were you however, I would go with archer because it what you are more experienced with by looking at you signature.

Adroit - Lost City · October 2010

no class will do well w/o a huge investment in time/$. However, sins do the best for their gear. The best sin possible would destroy any other class, and a **** geared sin is about equal to a decent traditional class (non-tideborn).

miyago · October 2010

I would assume Lost City to be different than PvE servers due to the nature of the competition. Therefore it won't be much fun to PvP with **** gear because you will die before you can get many hits off. Another part is that fun PvP is mostly group oriented, and end game guilds will not accept you if you have **** gear. That being said, if you're dead set on PvPing without good gear, wizards are probably your best bet.

Hmm I sorta beg to differ on sins, while you may not be 3.33/5aps, you can still spark A LOT due to your chi gaining skills. Tbh, all classes takes investing into. Having played them all, although archers are #1 for my playstyle, I find them to be quite expensive ( as you mentioned cv bow and a lot of people want 5 aps archers for nirvana). for the most part wizzies/clerics/psys = good weapon + high channeling. barbs=good armor + good hp. sins = high aps. venos= herc/nix. archers = purge bow + high aps+ hp to tank the hits should you aggro for some reason. and bms = 3.33/5 aps and decent refines. well all classes require decent refines but i guess i'd have to go with rolling a sin or bm. or actually cleric would be +1. Clerics are 99% a must for any instance(1% being full bm/sin/barb squad all 4aps or higher). I know clerics with mediocre gear getting tt99 and nirvana stuff now because they heal and spam nirvanas. I haven't really ran into a "no not this cleric because of her gear". sure channeling is great but not nearly as important or stressed about as aps is.

Lingzi - Lost City · October 2010

my suggestion is the best

go for archer, they have natural 'range' n both 'mag' n 'phy' atks

BMs n Wiz r good class n just like u had said, they r expensive to build if u wanna pk well in them. BMs needs aps to be good, Wizs need good phy def, HP n channeling, all r very expensive to get.

KedgeSniper - Lost City · October 2010

Sins are easy to play, just stun pew pew to death. Stealth if anything or fly away till ya can stealth.

Sin gear is not amazingly hard to get, its pretty much hh99 LA/heavy addorns, cape (which mite cost a bit), rank top (which shouldnt be hard to get) n Weapon (which i had say 1st cast nirvana is good) n Nirvana pants (which obvs ya gonna want)

thats all ya need for interval and hh99 still farmable, specially if ya go with like guild runs where ya can get to pick yar gold n stuff.

Weapon would be the only thing ya need to farm, and like adroit said.

Plus once ya get interval, it will be easier to get nirvana parties n stuff.

Only other cheap class would be Barb like they told ya, even when ya frost.. people offer to give ya free hyperstones as long as ya go with them. And also just been full Vit with refines like 4-5.. it be decent enough to 1v1 sum people.(I find melee weird to play/except sin.. hate chasing people)

EP is boring in pve, PVP it has his own advantage but i dont find them that atractive. Plus the waste on pots, going to town at party wipes, people rage at ya for anything that happen in the party. Even though vit build EP with decent shard n refine could be good for RPK.

k i just got back to reading this lately and now for the wall of text response. but I got quite a few posts to adress so it'll be done all in one post. i claim no responsibility for loss of brain cells to to noobness, or the bleeding of eyes.

cleric - great class and one of the classes I'm best at. had a 101 barb that I did 2-3 with earlier. and his only request to help me was i heal and not DD on my bm. didn't wanna get stuck with some random noob imo. been playing cleric for a year. as for the pk aspect clerics are awesome at pk. archers and sins are a bit of a pain but the rest I'm so so against. the only thing that annoys me with cleric is the very few attacks. going up vs a barb and cyclone > wield thunder > cyclone > no skill to use here yet (cooldowns) other then seals/shell/kite. (probably one of my top picks if it wasn't for the fewer attacks other then that i love this class to death and ya i find instances really freaking easy lol but they cost a little mroe to do with defence charms and such for AE/3-1 beast)

BM - it's the requiring 5aps for high lvls instances that kills me. my 84 bm will be 85 next fcc np but 5aps is to hard to reach for me. 3aps i plan to get but 5 is to high. investing time is doable just not that much lol.

Archer - great class i know them decently well. faced a few really strong ones too. on the other hand I've also seen and faced high lvl archers and without a pretty decent weapon they don't do to remarkibly well at 90+ when the armor kinda evens out the differences in classes power

Barbarian - i don't mind mele to much and the barbs i've seen with decent gear are pretty tough to beat so being powerful barb isn't the issue nor is tanking. it's that their skill set just doesn't seem to match my play style.

Assassins - extremely powerful class I agree. rank armor > hook and thorn > 90 gold bracers or heaven forbid blood moon. but that's still not even 3aps demon sparked lol need what -.55 int for sin to hit 5aps which means rank 9 armor or 180-200m tome QQ that's the thing that concerns me. if i was to go sin chances are I'd be a skill spamming sage tbh but that's kinda looked down on lol.

psychic - skills really aren't that appealing to me tbh. they hit extremely hard reflect dmg and well their pretty freaking beastly but their class straight up screams cs lol. soul force and such which cs classes are what i'm trying to avoid.

Venomancer - herc/nix is alittle out of my reach atm (sawfly/magmite/walker works but pve the class is so simple and still people want herc that i kinda deferred away from the class at least on a pve server, but the versatility and survivability in HA for veno is really nice.

Wizzard - really powerful class hands down. my wizzy on LC atm is 31 LA. archer is now 38 as posted from my archer (surentos this is my bm posting lol my sig didn't want to update when i tried 3-4 times lol). they can take a beating and dish it out. difficult class low lvls as people may say . . . i find assassin more difficult lowbie lvls then wizzy so far lol. I don't know the class to terribly well but i've faced many wizzy's at least duels which isn't as realistic as pk so my experience in wizzies is limited (other then a 102 wizzy pyrograming my bm in pk the other day for 15k QQ).

as for a few side note's not mentioned in the classes. some work and a little csing i will do. i just wont' be insane at it seeing as school/work will interfere the time will be low. and pwi don't care enough about their players for me to cs much. the ones probably at the top of the list are cleric, assassin, wizzy (31 wizzy being my top but 76 sin and 83 cleric i know those 2 a tad bit better lol and my sin is only so so. skills way underlvld but still took out an 80's robe in pk and his stealth lvl is 103 lol geared to prettymuch mp regen like crazy and never half to restealth. 3.6k hp at 76 but no -int on him). all in all a few of the classes mentioned i will definately put more thought into but as for bm which is a class I like just as much as my cleric. the 5aps requried for all high instances is killer (was on lost city watching WC's and such for a couple days and that's all i see requst for other then EP (cleric)).

edit: as for ep's being boaring in pk . . . i totally agree. I'd love if my current cleric was in pvp sever but i'd half to upgrade her gear. it's 2-3 flawless TT80 gold. with ht of the drum master, yaksa, and +3 pdef ammy/belt TT80 for the pdef. but her mag lacks alittle. only -channel is her leg bracers. gots 2.7k self buffed pdef. 8.5k mdef, 5kish matk i think (2 immac saphire +1 yaksa and sh*t rings lol)

i dunno i think clerics are the best bet or barbs, you can always find a squad to lvl and factions want you so they can bug you to lvl them

a personal example is

hey come frost
EP for rez?
hey come frost
hey come frost
hey come HH
hey come BH
hey come frost
(also although people say clerics are **** pvp i've 1 shot non crit tempest barbs)

Do said barbs not know how to use AD?

not if the tempest is unexpected . . . . AD every cooldown for 4 seconds of can't be touched . . . every 3 minutes. so if it's unexpected then they can't really AD it

Kairu_ - Sanctuary · October 2010

been doing some research on barbs as well as some that I already know that don't really cs but still own pvp rather nicely. the fact that their always wanted for instances makes farming even low TT gear to sell for higher gear rather easy feat to accomplish albeit time consuming though.

If an EP one shots a WB with tempest then either:

A.) The EP's gear 10000000000000x better than the WB

B.) The EP used triple spark + debuff, and if an EP can triple spark and debuff you without you noticing, perhaps PvP isn't your forte.

If you dont wanna spend hundreds of millions on gear and still be viable in pvp (in pve as well) you better make an assassin. You dont even need a hp-charm to pk lol.

Both archer and wizards are classes more focused towards mass scale group pvp like TW, which is pretty much extinct on Lost city so dont bother.

Rawrgh - Raging Tide · October 2010

I dunno maybe it's just me but I've always used AD at the last possible second (after the part where they couldn't have cancelled)
