I want to play a Berserker but it seems like the worst class in the game. Should I just pick a wizard for dank old man roleplaying?

Real general question but how is this game for getting in new, right now? These games tend to get hosed pretty quickly as people exploit, max level, etc.

Breath 28 or 29, I did a ton of no-horse early on. I still end up running places but the last few levels of breath are slow. I'd say worth waiting on horses for a while at least, and if you're serious about training horses anyway, you need a noble wagon.

You have the rest of your character's lifespan to hit 30 breath and get that last 20 stamina. There's nothing wrong with not using a horse but I just wanted to let any potentially new players reading to know that they don't have to run everywhere if they don't want to. To me getting 20, 50 or even 100 stamina slightly sooner is not worth having to run everywhere by foot. :shobon: Fwiw I used horses all the time and my ranger has 30 breath already anyway.

it's a good time to get in

People sell maxed out gear on the market so if you can make money you can buy it without doing mob grinding or rng. The soft cap just increased with the new zone so you can get catch up to the bulk of the player base in a short time.

Contract is the way this game calls joining a guild and bears no practical significance beyond purely nominal monetary compensation (or fine) if you get kicked (or leave) from the guild before it is over.

My contract has expired. Could this mean soon to be purged? Yikes!

Play a tamer or a warrior or a witch or a barbarian or a wizard. Play any class that has a humanoid shape and let's you play Barbie. Play a class that has the ability to be in the game. Play whatever the gently caress you want because if you're trying to min max your pvp experience then ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha... Ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Justice is bald, like an eagle, or Lady Liberty's docket.

As a fresh level 45, the only PVP I have experienced on my wizard is being one-shot by every other class ever while I'm trying to grind XP and gear.

Then having them whisper me about my scrub tier gear.

I'm looking forward to hitting 50 and continuing the circle of life myself by dropping meteors on people from the bushes.

The problem with zerk is your only window of opportunity to deal damage with your kit is when people are knocked down after your grabs, and when 50% of the time your grabs just don't work or the guy just gets up instantly or teleports behind you or whatever the gently caress the server decides, you don't get to do damage. And It isn't even good damage either.

A pet is like 7 bucks(?) and makes looting not suck

A horse makes walking not suck, since the world is very large and there's no faster way to travel

You get a pet which auto loots for you, furniture for your house which can triple your energy regen, and a mid tier horse. It's not the worst set of stuff but nothing you can't get in game.

You get the furniture with the 30 bucks and horses are essentially free so you can save 10 bucks by just buying a cat independently. Maybe you get more dyes or other things though
