Hello, preference I know, but its my first character, and i wanna know which build you found the most fun, I like summoming, i like shapeshifting AND i like mages, so i cant decide, and instead of making a new topic just for this...where is the nearest banker to the starting area? :)

    Veno is an integration of all you mentioned.

    So what do we have to do now?

    The nearest bankir from your position is at the north gate of the Untamed City. All you have to do is to walk straight after you find the gate. You can see the bankir nearby by just walking slowly

    Erm they were asking about builds too.
    I don't know how many years of MMORPG experience you have; my first character I leveled was an HA veno from level one, and dear lordy was it one heck of a difficult trip and journey not to mention totally rediculous slakngsadg omg. But I have the experience and wouldn't trade it for anything in the in-game world :D (But I also would never do it again. xD And I've played/watched gameplay of these types of games since really young. Based on your experience with these games/the amount of research you do, your creative freedom for what you do and can manage to succeed with them is dependent.)
    You'll have the easiest time with item requirements if you go AA, and a bit of vit in a magic build wouldn't hurt. Fox forme increases physical defence masses so make sure to get physical orns (unless you're HA I guess) to take advantage of that when using FF to do things like purge and amp and etc. Just keep in mind that your fox forme's damage is based on your physical attack (strength and etc), not your magical attack (magic and etc) which is what alienates most venos from doing not ridiculous low damage in that forme.

    Since you're new I'd recommend following the Arcane Armor build (check out the sticky threads) until you learn the class, learn your skills and explore the game.

    Later, you may choose to switch over to Heavy Armor build or continue with an Arcane Armor build; it highly depends on what you're planning to do (PvE, PK, TW etc.) but that's something you have to find out and choose yourself so we can't help much there.

    I would also recommend Arcane, we do get better fox damage than it is generally acknowledged and near full on nuking with a minimal vit build, I capped mine at 55 which was certainly enough to take more than a few hits and not having to worry about getting hp from gears. The Fox skills I'd recommend leveling for Arcane (other than fox form itself) are Amp, Purge, Stunning Blow and Leech. The extra Str you're bound to get from protection ornies really does make a noticeable difference in terms of fox dps.

    HA/AA combo seemed interesting to me, but I already have melee classes that do it better so I went with:

    Up to level 100 I had 100 VIT, remaining points in MAG and max of 54 STR for weapons - a normal AA class with robes.

    At level 100 re-statted down to 5 VIT and put the remaining into MAG when I got my new gear.

    I had a Herc since level 20, and even with the high VIT my healing was fine and I solo'd all of my BH/FB/bosses/quests/etc. save for a few higher level ones.
