voska · Post by **voska** » Wed Oct 26, 2005 2:21 am

what is the starsign patch?

Bon · Post by **Bon** » Wed Oct 26, 2005 2:24 am

well if you want melle defenders arnt the best choice you dont have any weapon prof above 80

ShanaArkai · Post by **ShanaArkai** » Wed Oct 26, 2005 2:24 am

no they arnt but since when has that mattered? sure you will be a tad weaker, but you can setbody to fix size problems and enchant eq for damroll and AR. i would rather hit you 20 times for 100 dmg each then 5 times for 150 each

(also with high speed comes the spell called slow, helps out alot in the arena)

well for voska the starsign patch is basicly no races have any perks like the 25% to magic and such but rather each race gets to pick a startsign like humans now and the starsigns would give the perks

and yes may make you a tad bit weaker but take my main for example hes a pixie but he does very good damage given i have 1250 dam roll but i hit insanly fast for high amounts of damage

i also think white magician rules as one of the top 5

Gnome or Pixie is the best bet for this epic class (mage/druid/paladin)

Chavez · Post by **Chavez** » Wed Feb 22, 2006 3:37 pm

My top 5 is this:
1. Inquisitor (paladin/cleric/rogue)
2. Holy Templar (warrior/cleric/paladin)
3. Warpriest (warrior/cleric/rogue
4. Spiritualist (warrior/cleric/psionicist)
5. Arcane Templar (warrior/mage/cleric)

I know, lots of warrior, rogue, paladin and cleric, but imo these 4 classes are the best ones around... Too bad you can't have 4 classes, a warrior/cleric/rogue/paladin would own

ShanaArkai · Post by **ShanaArkai** » Thu Feb 23, 2006 4:06 am

rogue/pally/cleric/psion would own imo if you had 4 classes you get 99% daggers with uber speed, you would hit faster than light

Warpriests suck, especially troll warpriests.

Warpriests are pretty good actually...

Quintos · Post by **Quintos** » Fri Feb 24, 2006 3:48 am

Yeah...the only downsides they have are that a.) if you're not a pixie or gnome, it takes longer to max speed, although this won't be true after the race patch and b.) you don't have paladin's buffs.

Nuitari · Post by **Nuitari** » Fri Feb 24, 2006 7:42 pm

The best epic classes:

Ranger/Cleric/Warrior( or Ranger/Warrior/Cleric)
Druid/Cleric/Warrior (in any order, though I'd put druid or cleric first)

There's really no reason not to be one of these class combinations on a character you intend to use primarily for combat.

If you're not going to gain many epic levels, druid might be a better choice than ranger, but in the long run ranger is better.

How/Why?

voska · Post by **voska** » Sat Feb 25, 2006 7:30 am

why is a ranger/cleric/warrior a great combat class?

ShanaArkai · Post by **ShanaArkai** » Sat Feb 25, 2006 9:32 am

warpriest is good because you get high % in almost every weapon out there, your lowest being 80% and 6 of them being up to 99% meaning when you fight you have a wide range of weapons in which to take down your enemy. also you have cleric for healing and haste/buffs which in almost every way i can think of is a good thing. then you get into skills that the classes have, such as hide, sneak, detrap, bash, spin, all of which are good to have. the only down side to warpriest is you have no offensive magic, but if worked correctly you can get around that too, all in all i would give warpriest and 8 out of 10 when it comes to epic classes, but no many people care what i think, im just a noob.

as for what Nuitari said, i have only one question, how is ranger a good class in the long run? their rubbish imo, only good thing they get is track, and thats not even that great.

i completely agree with you, you're right about all of the things you said, and that explanation about warpriest pro's and con's doesn't sound noobish at all too me

This is just a thread about your opinion on what the best epic class is. Ranger/Cleric/Warrior is currently the optimum epic class; if you want to know why, try it out. I'm giving you a valuable piece of advice, not a strategy guide

ShanaArkai · Post by **ShanaArkai** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 4:42 am

im just wanting to know your reason for thinking ranger is a good class to have, i have played a ranger, my first epic class was Fey and i found ranger to be my only problem with the class, im not trying to say that your wrong, just trying to figure out how Ranger could possibly be any good, as far as i know the only thing a ranger really has that any other class dosnt is track, and i belive others would agree with me that the ranger class is the most useless class out there.

lingolas · Post by **lingolas** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 7:08 am

your ranger is probably at a low level. A high lvl ranger has a nice perk that makes them pretty powerful. I wont say what it is because torrim would rather have you find out yourself. Also, they key isnt the ranger alone but the combination of a ranger/cleric and warrior. Believe it or not, i am working on a pk character that has the ranger as one of the alternative classes.

ShanaArkai · Post by **ShanaArkai** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 8:13 am

i got my ranger to about e100 and still found ranger to be the downfall of my epic class. and i played as the ranger for a little over a year (didnt level much) if it does have anything good i dont know what it is.

1.Arcane Templar - Good all around Class. - Spin.
2.Spiritualist - Great casting class , downfall: Lack of Holy Avenger. - Spin
3.Juggernaut - Probably the best all around Melee class. - Spin
4.Swashbuckler - There is like an army of them. - Multistrike
5.Holy Templar - Downfall : No Time flux , Haste seems to make it for it though. - Spin.

4.Inquisitor
5.Arcane Templar

My top epic classes:
PVP:
*Swashbuckler\
Not great classes if you aren't willing to earn alot of
epic levels because of low body/defensive complexes
In my opinion though, in the long run these are the
best PVP combos.
*Juggernaut /

*Inquisitor \
Great classes at lower levels ,meaning less than e400
or so;less powerful than the other classes I'll
mention in the long run, due to a lack of diversity in
both complexities and skills
*Holy Templar/

*Dungeon Delver\
Even more powerful at low levels, and lose less in
terms of spell complexities and skills; The loss of
Holy avenger'ed weapons in PVP is not a good idea
though considering the lich population...
*Spiritualist /

PVE:
~ Notice: By PVE I do not mean epic dungeons; epics require good ~
~ eq/ resists and/or good saves. I am referring to Super-Mobs ~

*Arcane Spy \
Absolutely the best PVE classes in my opinion.
You gain a strong melee class either way, mage for
Dispel and Unravel defense primarily, and cleric
for healing(crucial against many supermobs), and
Bane which is particularly awesome if you are an
elemental of the type mages can bane

*Arcane Templar/

Yes I realize that this thread wants the top 5 epic classes. I break rules....
