Best Class

Big Daddy · 04-27-2002, 03:18 PM

I'm thinking to replay the game.
What character should I chose?
I'm thinking to be a Blade,Monk,Assasin or a Paladin.
What would be the best class?

i restarted and as a cavalier. now what i find really stupid is normal paladins or cavaliers hhhmm which 1. but for sum strange reason the cavalier gets a hell of a lot more advantages than the paladin with measly disadvantages. quick tip, whe you start with a cavalier make sure his strength is 18, then get the girdle of hill giant strenght give it to him and he will have the exact same hit percentage as a kensai of the same level. also some how my cavalier has got 77% magic resistence, i didnt cheat i swear.

But really you should pick something that you would enjoy playing. The Cavalier is the best character to play to be really powerful, but what would you like to roleplay? That's the main question you should be asking!

There is no best class, it all depend on your playing style.

Ahh.... the cavalier. I care not that it is the most powerful of the classes. I care for the fact that its is the symbol of all that is good and right. It is the symbol of the most noble and great of all the races in Farun. The cavalier is the great swordsman that fights for the good of all agianst the forces of evil. It is..... ME!!!!!

Go for fun, not quality! Haer'Dalis absolutely sucks, but he is one of the most interesting characters, it adds flavor to the game. Think about yourself...do you like zapping spells all over the place? How bout strong, steady tanking? Or speed, stealth, etc?

Try playing as an assassin, striking from the shadows and taking a big chunk of HP out of a hardcore enemy is strangly satisfying haha [img]smile.gif[/img]
Also i find their poison weapon ability is very useful agaisnt clerics and mages, disrupts their spellcasting somewhat. But that's just me. You can't play warrior if you choose assassin, you must be a sneak and let your NPCs do the tanking while you finish ppl off with those back stabs [img]smile.gif[/img]

Try a Beast Master! [img]tongue.gif[/img]
IMO, they frankly sucks, but believe me, you'll have fun going through the game with one!

But of the four you have listed, try a Monk. They are super-good fighters, and it's funny to go through the game with a warrior that different from the other warriors.
