I really dont know what class to choose.
I heard that Seekers are really useful in party and PvP.
But Mystic are only useful for buffs and healing in party and suck in pvp, is that true?
And also what's better in your opinion mystic or seeker?

    flip a coin, there both of pretty equal importance when it comes to squads. mystics help keep the squad alive and back up clerics where as seekers help AoE groups of mobs easier.

    I didn't think I would like mystics, but I currently LOVE the one I made the other day.
    The only thing about them is the high MP cost, and I think I'm going to have to get apo skill and make lots of apo mana pots or buy lots of charms b:surrender (Luckily Plat MP charms are way cheaper than HP charms)
    Quite frankly, I hardly use my pet. xD She does 700+ dmg already with her starter skill that the pet only gets like 2 hits in at most, but when it comes to bosses, I can easily solo them with my pet + the heals :3 But again, the mp cost of the heals can really eat your mana pool and make it hard to solo some things... I ran out of MP when the EG 19 boss was at like 5% HP, I was like b:shocked

    Seeker, i have played to 27 on. I like the ranged melee-ness, but I don't enjoy her as much as the mystic I have. While they do have ranged attacks, I don't like running after the mobs while the skills are in cooldown, and I really hate not being able to survive magic attacks without pots. (Atleast on the Mystic, if it's a physical mob, I can let the pet tank it and if it's magic, I can tank it... even then, you get self heals & a res buff... but the mana cost is SO high on the res buff).

    Seekers in a squad would prolly have a roll similar to BM's... just be a DD, although with a low APS you might be spamming skills lots and using MP foods a LOT.
    Mystics are good for res buffing the cleric and barb, doing back up heals, and being a DD. Their summons can range from AOE sleep to AOE heal, which is pretty cool, esp if you plan on FC/FF :3


    But that's a personal preference... I suggest trying them both if you feel like it, and it really comes down to these questions:

    1. Do you enjoy being full range, or do you like a mix of melee and range?
    2. Do you enjoy having a pet?
    3. Can you have someone kill bosses for you (Even on a mystic, some bosses are going to need help with...)?
    4. What's your budget? While seekers can use up a lot of HP pots, mystics can use a lot of MP pots. MP food/charms are cheaper, while HP food/charms are most expensive. Seekers also need MP with the amount of mana their skills require...

    mystic is like half veno have cleric. but without the best parts of either class. excepting the ability to solo stuff

    although i would trade my wellspring for break in the clouds anyday...b:surrender
    Killing level 80's with a lvl 60 is a lot more fun than killing level 90's with a level 100.
