Depends on what you're playstyle is going to be, if you want a pure RvR char, casual RvR char or PvE char. Depends if you wanna level fast, slow, with or without bot, if you want defensive, offensive, hybrid, tank, healer, caster, if you want do grind arties and ML's or not etc etc etc :)

I hear all the time that BG wardens are very popular in groups. With a nice arti template that would probably give you a lot of RvR. But I also hear they are very slow to lvl if solo and without spec buffs.

Haven't really tried that many hib classes in RvR. I can only say that I've enjoyed playing BM with max str cap built into template.

VW is fun too with the choice of either spells or melee.

My advice is, try to look at character builder and look at the classes you find interesting. Then you can see exactly what abilities you'll get with various different specs, and see if it's something you might like. Always helped me when trying to decide what to try next.

On a side note: You don't NEED range just because NF is heaven for range classes. If you improvise and play your class well, you can easily earn lots of rps with a melee class. I roam around on my savage duo'ing with my brother playing skald on pryd, and when we just run around the right places we can find lots of soloers and small groups to challenge ourselves with.

Range is NOT a total must if you just know what you're doing :)

make a char you can play without MLs imo.

im not sure about this, but with lots of hibs leaving, fop/animist nerf, MLs will be an even bigger pain in the ass :(

wardens are always required in groups bg is a big advantage but with pbt/damage add/red resists also you can heal or interupt makes a warden one of 1st choices in rvr groups ( unless u just wanna be a zerger or catapult operater )

Doubt it.
MLs are about zerging PvE mobs in a semi organized way... :m00:

Well, then the threadstarter should really play anything else than a warden, like a proper dmg dealer of some sort ;p

I'm not trying to compare melee classes vs warden. All I'm saying is that range isn't as important as some people would like to think so. If you rely on range, what will you do when someone gets within melee range? You'll get a good thrashing that's what'll happen.

I find it hard to belive that ML's will be harder without shrooms. Mids and albs have been doing lots of ML raids without shrooms ever, and still with fop nerf. It's stupid to be so narrowminded that you feel you need to rely on 1 or 2 single elements.. improvise.. if you just go the fotm way you'll never learn something new.

And the latter statement goes for classes to play as well.. play what you think might be fun, don't just chose what everyone else say is uber just because they say it is. Judge for yourself and form your own opinion so you wont turn into just another grass straw in the garden.

Stack it with ST - then they have to stand still. We did a nice job on some mids with stacked ST/TWF and pbae/ae spam over the top. ;)

Albs have theurgists to spam pets...

Albs/mids have more people to get into raid.

Hibs lack in cold damage, which is best type of damage on 90% of encounters, mobs have low resists on it.

Other than that, welcome to hibbie , do char you think you like, its most important. Wardens are needed with resists and twf and second heal and bg etc...

So hibs suck at ML raids because we're all good at whining about the things we don't get instead of using the things we do get? Hibs suck at ML raids because they haven't the imagination to think beyond the nerf of animists and fop? And why do you think hibs lack cold dmg.. you do know it's possible to make cold legendary weaps right?

I'm just brainstorming here.. I don't understand why people have to whine about what they don't have instead of using the abilities they DO have (as already said)... it's pathetic not to mention stupid because while you whine all the time you don't get much done, and people usually don't sympathize with whiners.
Manage with what you got or forget about ML's - that would be my advice to those who fear hib ml raids.
