Chapter 2 has districts full of Tank-assins that make it all but impossible for legitimate assassins to get into groups and get through the dang game....

Great to see chapter 3 will be full of Tank-ervishes doing the same thing!!!

Oh well, I guess it's a Paragon for me - CAN'T WAIT

I said if Anet keep adding new classes every chapter, it will only get worse. I think I will be right.

What I wanted to see in a chapter 3 preview is that they're adding good, fun to play new PvE areas, a few new skills for the existing classes, and some new types of PvP. Instead we get more gimmick classes that will ruin balance and have far too many of, and are just remixes of existing classes.

This coming preview weekend and the ability to buy more char slots must be linked together

Leon_Ux-ixen · Jul 18, 2006, 06:29 PM // 18:29

I am excited and can't wait to play a Dervish. I can see that Wa/De will be popular but have a feeling they will no hold up, but will have to see. I'm already gathering an idea for mine as we speak.

TheUndertaker · Jul 18, 2006, 06:33 PM // 18:33

I'm assuming you mean Assassins who think they are tanks. Not W/As. And you are probably right. But Wammos make it tough for real tanks to get through the game also.

Sir Skullcrasher · Jul 18, 2006, 06:33 PM // 18:33

wow new class that make ritualists and assassins looked weak!

I can't wait to try out both class.

Wrath Of Dragons · Jul 18, 2006, 06:34 PM // 18:34

is it just me, or is this a PERFECT time to release buyable charachter slots?
for those of you who shout "anet held out on us just to make money"
i shout back at you "DUH."
No new slots available for preview, but you can either use your own account or get a temporary one. if you are full, but want your own? buy one!
brilliant timing, and a great wat to boost sales of the slots.

Leon_Ux-ixen · Jul 18, 2006, 06:35 PM // 18:35

I'm excited for the Dervish and can't wait. Far as more classes coming I lvoe it, the fear of it is unfound. The only reaosn would lost of power in PvP. I think people are afraid that thier 4-year old Wa/Mo will lsoe thier edge and PvP and are afraid of the competion being spiced up. Thier will never be a loss of balance, such things were thought with the Assassin and Ritualist. But if anyone has cared to noticed they found thier palce in the ranks of PvP/PvE/AB.

I love the Devish and have my ideas already ocming togather. Far as thier Primary I think an attack evasion may be it or prehaps the ability to restore health after the death of a foe cause they apper to be like reapers.

Why are so many of you already making judgements against this? Why aren't all of you excited to the new possiblites that have arisen once more?

No no, lets all nag already shall we? By the gods, you all need to pull your finger out of where ever you put it up, and stop smelling the goods cause your going to miss alot of this game all over again.

I'm excited on the prospect of everything. This is going to give everyone more defintion to play people now. But no no, lets nag!

Perhaps by chapter 5 we wont have any new classes, as I hope we have this epic game where we have to help the Gods, or stop some evil god from taking back his place from Grenth. By that time, we'll have....6 new professions and 6 Core professions with countless tactics and possiblities and flavor for a superb game.

Lets hold our judgements for now everyone, and just be excited. I mean c'mon, we're getting a preview event already! That alone will be cool.

Please tell me how you already know that:
-Nightfall will have no fun-to-play PvE areas?
-Nightfall will have no new PvP types?
-Nightfall's new classes will ruin GW balance?

It's sometimes fun to whine and complain, but as they say, "assuming only makes an ass out of you and me".

Loviatar · Jul 18, 2006, 06:45 PM // 18:45

FOR THOSE WITHOUT EMPTY SLOTS WHO ARE WORRIED

remember those *temp* accounts they had for Factions events?

same here

YOU DONT HAVE TO DELETE TO ENJOY/TRY

seanedsw28 · Jul 18, 2006, 06:45 PM // 18:45

they are definitely have potential, but A-net is going to have to pony up more slots or either:
1. generate slots for the preview event, and lock them when done
2. release single slots (of which I will buy 1)

Well now we now why warrior stances were adjusted to "ear shot"

Probably because people dont wan't another gimped pve Assassin class. From what I take in the opinions of most people of the factions classes are pretty sour. You don't see many of them in your groups even in cantha. They really have no spot in pve. I was dissapointed with both classes in factions though I made both classes I didn't enjoy either to much. Most people probably feel the same way because I see this all over the forums. People dont wan't another class created for a position that does not need to be filled.

bulletsmile · Jul 18, 2006, 06:47 PM // 18:47

it really looks like an elementalist, anyway finally spears in gw and also i hope there will be egyptian areas

Leon_Ux-ixen · Jul 18, 2006, 06:47 PM // 18:47

Unless a Wa/Mo is good an Assassin can drop em quickly, I've seen more then a dozen times and will continue to see it. I think the two new classes will make Warriors work harder to stay the max damage maker and dealer.

Rent · Jul 18, 2006, 06:50 PM // 18:50

So you already know how much armor Dervishes are going to have? Do tell.

Leon_Ux-ixen · Jul 18, 2006, 06:50 PM // 18:50

I can that we will be in the Egypt likeplace alot if you havn't noticed from the cloths and classes. They look very much like people in hyrophics(sp?).

Eet GnomeSmasher · Jul 18, 2006, 06:53 PM // 18:53

Gotta love the people who are already complaining just by judging a short preview on two classes. Pre-emptive complaining is funny.

xxSilhouette · Jul 18, 2006, 06:54 PM // 18:54

hehe - im freaking out!! I feel like i did when they first annouced factions. Im very excited!! and everyone is right, it would be a perfect time to allow us to buy the character slots, ive been wanting that to come along anyways

And for those who are saying things like...they shouldnt keep adding character classes and such, well would you really want a new game, and just have to use the level 20 characters you already have? I wouldn't, I want to both make new ones, and use the ones i have - i have very much enjoyed making brand new characters in factions and leveling them up!

BigTru · Jul 18, 2006, 06:55 PM // 18:55

... Looks like the built the new professions with PvE in mind only...

Guess only time will tell. Might be some good obscure skills to use as a secondary.

I can't imagine a wammo clone with AoE attacks being a dominant PvP force. Paragons look alright I guess, but that depends soley on how powerful their shouts are.
