Offensive support classes (careers?) enlighten me please.

Hai!

As those who know me from back in daoc i have a thing for offensive support/hybrids.
I more often prefer to run alone or in small groups than zergs or opted 6mans(?)
From what ive gathered not being in beta is that the WP or DoK are resembling what im after with heals/dps.
I have 2 questions, first a general description of these 2 would be mucho <3 also if there are similar classes in other areas like cc/meleedps or cc/ranged dps which might be something that would satisfy my need for alot of micromanagement and e-peen enlargement of victorious battles against odd numbers. Nothing overpowered, just classes were individual skill and level of dedication makes a big impact.

Ty in advance.

They both have melee styles and heals,weakest healing from all 3 healers but apparently they make bit more dmg than other healers aswell,they wear Medium armor and can take some beating.Lot of micromanagement when you trying to balance between healing & dps:ing

Their weakpoint is (imo) that they lack snare,everyone can just run away from you.

And there's no CC classes,each class gets root/knockback of some kind but nothing like Healer from Daoc or so.

If you are looking for tricky micromanagement, the white lion gives a lot of options. Stances for your pet, buffs, debuffs, limited heals on your pet etc etc.

ty for info so far.

None of the DoK/WP have any forms of snares/knockbacks?

Regarding white lion, pet proffs were never something for me. I did hunter in wow and never again =(

The DoK have a "flay" ability that snares 40% movespeed, I think the WP have something similar.

Have a look at all their abilities:
WP: Warrior Priest - Actions - WARDB

DoK: Disciple of Khaine - Actions - WARDB


enjoy

Shaman's are pretty awesome. You get a mediocre nuke, a focused nuke which hits for 3-4 times (this works out faster than simply casting base nuke 3-4 times). You get 2-3 dots (one heals you iirc).

They get a big heal which if struck means its cast time is drastically lowered (all big heals have this). They have an instant HoT and a small heal with a HoT.

They have a tactic to "improve dmg by 25%, but lowers heals by 20%" and another tactic which "if struck has a 30% (think its 30%) chance to run faster for X seconds".

They also have a Morale ability where if you use the instant DoT on the person, it ticks for alot of dmg. The person has to stop moving for 2 seconds otherwise the DoT will tick for 60 seconds iirc.

Oh and they get this crazy ability where you and everyone around you fly off in random directions lol. It can be really great, but can also throw you in the wrong direction hehehe.
