New to the game: What character to start with?

[old.Xanthian]

The DD+Snare is better imo, the snare gives u more time to get more DD's in b4 mob reaches you.
If bolts miss, chances are your dead

Never tried soloing my char though, so cant really comment, although I did solo a red con for my lvl 40-something epic, when I was mana spec...

Its all about power effisiency when soloing as a caster bolts own at that

Totaly agree. Max damage per spell = less mana spent. Void doesnt need to snare / stunn / debuff etc. Only problem is if both bolts get resited or miss in which case you are miles away from your opponent and a short jog back sorts the problem with minimal time loss, this is more than made up for when spec bolt crits, pick targets extra weak to cold and its not impossible to one shot a yellow or even an orange

Mana or Void - ARGh, I can't decide! [/QUOTgo with waht u prefer at the start you can respec at 20 and or 40

I too am currently thinking of starting an alt in Hib, are champions a viable choice? I want something a bit like a paladin.
