Chanter interests me the most.

I'm pretty partial to the Gladiator at the moment, I quite like the idea of a melee class, and would pick an assassin if I could hardcore play but since my playtime is limited I don't want to pick a class that is going to get insta gibbed by high lvls because it's a griefing class.

Cleric here, tried one a bit on the beta, best healer i've played in an mmo for levelling. Can actually level without it going into the "spam x button so many times until target dies or you die" situation. fights are a bit involved, but you don't deal out TOO much damage. make up for it by being able to heal so easily in combat though. Wearing chain and carrying a shield helps a bit too of course.

 

[adoNix]

Chanter!

 

[Hawkwind]

DW gladiator for 1st char probably.

 

[pito]

TEMPLAR FTW all tho i fancy trying a chanter but i played palading in wow so wanna do something a bit different

 

[Garaen]

No assassins so far, I would have thought they would have been a popular class since they are the best solo leveler / solo PvP

 

[Bugz]

If I have the time & money to play, I'll prob look at an assassin.

 

[Thadius]

Looking at Aion, it seems to be exactly like daoc character wise

 

[~Latency~]

probably a templaaaaaaaaaar

Really, I found and both the mage and tank classes far easier to level. Some of the Quests are quite difficult on Assassin. Adds tend to make you run. But then only tried one up to L18 so maybe they get a lot stronger. Must admit criting for 300-500 was nice

Assassin leveling is horrific up until 25 - 30, then it gets real easy as your DPS goes through the roof (all chinese golf farmers use the assassin class which should show how quick they are when it comes to dpsing at end game).

gonna play a chanter myself.

not the fastest leveler in the game but its a proper fun class

really good group auras (that can all be active at the same time, so no twisting shit) wich makes it a strong candidate for must haves in groups, ok melee damage and half-decent heals to keep yourself alive with. tho not strong enough heals to make even a decent backup healer as chanters heals isnt scaling well.

and having chain armor makes for some ok defenses.

only bad part is that having more then 1 chanter in a group is useless as the auras isnt stacking. and those auras is whats making the class group friendly, without those were just a shite gladiator

/edit: and its a rather easy:ish class to play from what i've experienced. no position crap or any other advanced stuff. just bash away and heal when needed.

Cheers for the heads up.

YouTube - AION - Elyos Templar lvl 36 (PvP)


Makes me chuckle tbh, templar vs 2 rangers 1 assassin. amount of punishment he can take is just wrong, 2nd fight in the video seems to be ranger assassin and some form of healer tho and he ignores the healer oO wtf
