Definately my cleric

Always my rogue now. Notice rogues and clerics are the most popular? Also the most diverse professions there are. Hope they dont kill that in gs4.

Rogues do rule.

Rogues rule now, but I have a feeling the changes to ambush will put them back in line with the rest of the professions. Even though I play(ed) an ambushing ranger, I think ambush is grossly overpowered as it stands.

Gokkem, who is now waiting for all the rogues to rip his head off for daring to saw ambush is overpowered.

I agree and always have. Ambushing is way overpowered. I just hope they don't completely ruin the skill with the change.

Glad my Rogue is archery based. Though, I'd have been pissed if tripling hiding had gone away.

AnticorRifling
05-20-2003, 09:04 AM
I would say Anticor is still my favorite to play (wizard) but a close second is my rogue he's a blast. I've also got a warrior that I use more for RP than anything else. If you see a dwarf warrior complainin about the dark elf smell in the landing you'll know it's me :cool:

I LOVE being da warpuff I am. Mainly because I was told for many years it couldnt be dun. I can beat da pants off most folks around my age and I wear brig (gunna get better once I a lil older) I hunt all the time. Currently I'm 48 n huntin' craptors n leopards in ta illistim that are 60 or so. This by far has been da most challenging and rewarding outta everything I've tried.

I recently rolled Rogue and having all sorts of fun with that character. All time fav is Sorcerer though, Rogue a close second.

Wizard that is played my way(haste swinging ) is still my favorite. Lately I've been favoring my dwarf bard over my rogue....

Solkern
12-22-2003, 04:28 PM
Cleric is my favorite profession, they can do so damn much, Swing as hard as anyone else, THey have a vast range of attack spells, spells to fuck around with people, blind, bind and silence. and more, They can save people, clerics give you more options then any other profession out there.

Rogue! I *love* my two edged/brawling weapon-using, ambushing rogue. Although my highest level character currently is a bard... who I love as well. I just started with rogue and I still have a soft spot in my heart for the profession.

Stunseed
12-22-2003, 10:43 PM
I think profession wise, I'd still choose my Ranger. Starting off was a wee bit off. At 40, I've got the swing and redux of a Warrior, the added bonus of evade, block, parry, and Wall of Thorns, and once I master Hamstring......Well, I might just let it get to my head.

Next is prolly my Wizard, mainly because it's a great way to realize how lucky I am to just swing as a Ranger. However, through the trains I've worked my Wizard, he's become a close second to the Ranger.

I think I'd enjoy playing a Bard, too. I also enjoy the RP of my Cleric.

Love you Jolena!

I liked my cleric before, don't see many 2 handin war clerics around so i figured I'd have a blast as a Marlu worshiping war cleric. Turned out to be tons of fun, run out bravery benediction warding sphere and what not. Come back from hunt meditate repeat. Then there was the evil resurection with the sacrificial blade.

Aha but then theres my warrior, lots of fun being a tank in all respects, coupled with guild skills an all around fun profession. Hmm brief but to the point i suppose.

My weezard! Lots of spells to play around with, familiars (and gate), enchanting, invis, and other spells with great RP potential.

Sorcs n Rogues are fun but I suppose i just find it a little easy *shrugs* just my opinion.

Hopefully I'll be changing my cleric to a paladin when the option rolls around, hes currently a pure spell caster (bah Gs4 changes made it a little difficult for my training path to be viable) Im just curious to see what the paladin circle will be like before i make my final desicsion.

I started with a sorcerer which will be fun when he get old but my favorite character is my dwarven cleric. Clerics are very versitle and I love playing a heretic.

Rogues are the best, definately. But I find myslef playing my little empath a lot lately. Spells are fun too

I have more fun hunting and RPing as my wizard now over my rogue. The first 30 trains were tough to get through due to my training choices (I trained him to be optimized BEFORE reallocation.) Once I started hunting rotting corpses, things got easy. It's been a breeze ever since.

My rogue was alot of fun to play as well. He's more fun to bring out during invasions due to his training, but overall I have alot more fun playing my wizard.

Well, I just started my Dhe'nar rogue, and since she wont let anyone herl her thats not Dhe'nar it frustrates me that she's injured all the time LOL

She's a blast to play so far, I kinda like haveing the "You're not good enough to be my footstool" mentality since my main's an Empath thats WAY too goody goody.

FinisWolf
04-03-2005, 03:47 AM
Man, this was a seriously tough decision!

I think Finis (warrior) is my absolute fav, maybe more because I started with him, but he is one mean hombre, and I love that about him.

My rogue has to be second, with his guild skills, and cman.

My wizard would be third.

But to be honest, they are all great. Depends on my mood, depends on what aspects of the game I want to enjoy... it just depends...

I have at least one of every profession, some 2 and 3, so I can have different styles...

So, yes, a very difficult decision.

I don't know, it's kind of a toss up between Ranger and Sorcerer.

04-03-2005, 12:56 PM
Rogue is my favorite... but I have to agree with Finis in that alot depends on my mood because each has a somewhat different persona.

StrayRogue
04-03-2005, 01:02 PM
Rogue too. A rogue can use magic, be a tank, an archer, a thief, a locksmith or a mix of everything.

ElanthianSiren
04-03-2005, 01:13 PM
Empath
Rogue
Ranger

but oddly enough my warrior is my highest trained character?

I love my empath because she's a great hunter and fun to RP.

Rogues are just plain awesome. They have the best CMAN moves. They have the best training path options, and they are more efficient than other professions because they can protect (leg) for the group or solo (hide ambush).

Rangers I simply enjoy as a change. I like their spells.

StrayRogue
04-03-2005, 01:49 PM
Er? You know shit.

I know rogues with more spells than most rangers who do fucking well.

Being a tank is pretty much the standard as well. You fucking retard.

Xcalibur
04-03-2005, 01:50 PM
I know shit. Shit is the thing that comes out of your asshole.

Rogues with more spells than most rangers? Most rangers bellow level 20? Sure

TAnk? And sux, yeah, that's what I said.

StrayRogue
04-03-2005, 01:51 PM
Please post your evidence.

Oh I forgot you don't have any.

Theres a number of rogues out there with well over 40 spells.

As for tanks, I can name a few pretty easily.

Xcalibur
04-03-2005, 01:54 PM
40 spells? That's 40 spells. 40 *67 =2680 tps. And to be able to cast those, you need at least 40 mana, and that's around 90 mtp more.

A ranger for 40 spells? 40*17 = 680. That's right, almost 5 times less.

That makes a ranger at 40 having more spells than a rogue at 90-100.

P.s. You're seeing Straycat using false numbers/presomptions AGAIN to prove his point.

Straycat cannot be wrong in Straycat's world.



[Edited on 3-4-05 by Xcalibur]

StrayRogue
04-03-2005, 01:57 PM
And your point is?

I said I know rogues with more spells than most rangers. That point still stands. I didn't say MOST rogues. I didn't say LOW LEVEL rogues. You fucking dumbass.

But please, post how your experience in GS4, considering you've just started playing again, is different to this? I mean you must have gotten to a pretty high level in a month. Unless of course you've been lying again.

E-wave, pick, disarm, with redux, and still get fried in less than 3 minutes of hunting.

Xcalibur
04-03-2005, 01:59 PM
WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT?

HOLY SHIT STOP BEING YOURSELF FOR A SECOND!

A level 95 rogue with 40 spells is most likely to be better than a fucking level 40 ranger, idiotic thing.

Main raison: HE'S HAVING 55 LEVELS more than the rangers.

Oh, damn, never mind...

Never mind.

And if you didn't understood the 2 first times: Never mind.

p.s. You'll get no information about my character (s) of whom I played.

No information at all, including to all of your "spies". (it goes that far... :( )

e-wave = level 10 spells.

That's 30 less spells.

And that's brighter.

StrayRogue
04-03-2005, 02:01 PM
You've been playing a month, of course if you haven't been lying. So you won't know anything about high level playing.

Second of all, where in my post, and I want you show me where in my post, did I say a high level rogue is or is not better than a lower level ranger. I said, for the third time, I know some rogues with more spells than most rangers. Do you understand? Or do you want me to say it for a fourth time?

Edaarin
04-03-2005, 02:02 PM
Doesn't mean it isn't viable to be a magical rogue.

If I was still playing, I could configure a level 90 rogue to have 410 and 117. Would have to sacrifice a lot of AS and almost all picking, but would be pretty nasty hunting.

Xcalibur
04-03-2005, 02:03 PM
It's impossible.

To have 40 spells a rogue need over 2600 mtps.

To have 40 spells, a ranger needs 700 mtps.

A level 40 rogue cannot surpase a level 40 ranger.

If you consider level by level.

If you don't consider levels, then your points isn't working, capiche now?

Would you enjoyed being so specialiazed?

The point of playing a rogue is to have many options to "fry" (And/or have fun)?

GS4 closed many doors ...

I know some warriors that got more spells than Wizards...

Most wizards? I doubt that. ANyway. Who?

Xcalibur
04-03-2005, 02:17 PM
Yeah most wizard of X level.

The name? not important.

The fact is, all wizard of the X level I'm thinking got less spells than at least 2 warriors.

And levels isn't a consideration, so that could mean the wizards are level 0 and the warriors are level 100.

Man, that is so stupid, poor him, he's trying EVERYTHING he knows to be right.

Unfortunately not.

In posts 339557, 339552, 339547 and 339541 I said without edit "I know some rogues who have more spells than MOST rangers". How is that a lie?

Xcalibur
04-03-2005, 02:27 PM
That is false.

You don't know any rogues that got more spells than MOST rangers.

A player whose been playing a month? You're not the average player. Nor will you be on the fame list.

Secondly, why would an average player know about the average level of a certain profession?

Oh wait, they wouldn't. Silly me.

Xcalibur
04-03-2005, 02:35 PM
I had 3 different characters on the fame list.

I was an average player.

Since I never changed my way of playing, I am still, an average player.

You lost, admit it, thing.

StrayRogue
04-03-2005, 02:36 PM
In GS3. GS3 doesn't mean shit in a discussion about professions in GS4. And exactly how do you determine the fact you're an average player? How exactly do you know how often the average player even plays?

Xcalibur
04-03-2005, 02:38 PM
Define an average player.

The majority of people playing gemstone will recognize themselves in the definitions.

I am an average player.

StrayRogue
04-03-2005, 02:39 PM
So you say. I'm willing to be you're not.

But you've answered my question: you do not know the average level of a ranger in GS.

You're a lying piece of yourself.

Some rogues doesn't know more spells than most rangers.

But if in your book some = 2 and most = 5, you're right.

I'm betting my ol' 2 bucks it's something along those lines, thing

StrayRogue
04-03-2005, 02:51 PM
No, I'm not. Some rogues have more spells than most rangers, IE, some rogues have upwards of 60+ spells.

Xcalibur
04-03-2005, 02:52 PM
Define some.

StrayRogue
04-03-2005, 02:53 PM
Three or four.

Xcalibur
04-03-2005, 02:57 PM
So 3 or 4 rogues got more spells than MOST rangers?

Ok....

All this for 3-4 rogues..

Some for me would be more than 0,0008% of the population, but hey...

StrayRogue
04-03-2005, 02:58 PM
Did I specify how many? NO. I said SOME you fucking cretic. Reinforcing my point that magic using rogues are not only viable but gimped in anyway shape or form. But what the fuck would you know anyway? You're neither high level or knowledgable enough to make that sort of assessment.

Xcalibur
04-03-2005, 03:06 PM

StrayRogue
04-03-2005, 03:19 PM
Where have I changed the subject, posted false things or "presomptions"?

I'll tell you that YOU have posted false things, changed the subject and made presumptions.

Such as that the avergae player is on the fame list: presumption
That a magic rogue is unviable: presumption
You were on the fame board: false
You're stupid hippie post: changed the subject.

Face it, when you're beaten, you just react by posting utter BS.

Xcalibur
04-03-2005, 03:23 PM
Average player is on the fame list: Right.

When gs3 was being transformed in gs4, they put something about a triangle showing the average player's level. Then they said the majority was considering 75 in gs3 as being the average level to be.

Then they based it on a level 75 game, remember?

The average was surely a bit lower, I'd say around level 50.

So now, I'd say the average is around 45-50

Magic rogue with 40 spells is unviable, beside if you're already 100.

Fame list: True, 3 times.

40 spells prior to 100 unviable? Tell that to Nodyre.

They changed it to 75 because it was roughly half the max cap. Not the considered average level to be.

3 time? I doubt that considering you never got above 60.

Never got above 60? ARE YOU SURE OF THAT?

The average in gs3 was SAID TO BE 75.

Use your damn memory.

6 months later, the average should be around 50.

And there's more and more of capped players and less and less of new players.

StrayRogue
04-03-2005, 03:31 PM
Yes, you've posted about your bitch wizard many atime as he was your "oldest". If I recall he was around 54-58.

Back in GS3, the fame list was condensed alot more thickly too. It had 10 years of people on it. During the change to GS4, they were wiped, if I recall correctly making it easier to get onto now.

Xcalibur
04-03-2005, 03:32 PM
That makes the average levels even better since they removed "ghosts"
