Laurelin is sort of close knit community too. :P

Thank you very much! :D

So what build are people aiming for when they start the game? :)

I like a mix of DPS with some heal. That's my "natural" play style.

I also like some Tank & Spank ("Hey!! Ugly!! I'm roight he'e, you meanie bastuh!!"), but it depends who I play with. Sometimes, players don't know (or worse, don't care) about aggro management and make it impossible for the tank to keep the mob's attention. The whole team pays the price, and either the doc or the tank are always blamed for it :P

In short: I'll go for the "in your face" builds :D

But the ability to have different builds has the advantage of allowing to add more fighting styles without having to roll another character, so I'll see what toys we have to play with at release ;)

My plan is to build the ultimate, litteral, glass cannon (healers gonna love me <3). But I guess I'll see what's possible and what's not fairly early :)

Glass cannon?... (Many images come to mind, on of them relating to "shrapnel"...)

High damage, low survivbility. In vanilla wow, Rogues had that role... But I was thinking more of an actual cannon.. like, a sniper rifle.. or a howitzer!! Sadly, AR seems the only fitting way :p

I am usually a healer class, so was thinking of spicing it up a bit into an AoE dps/healer (thinking hammer/fist combo) ... Without more knowledge I cannot say for certain if it's a viable build though :D

Heh, probably. But if I wanted to play it, I would rather have it as a concept. Just as Venator was talking about :)

Yeah, I was thinking just the same thing, so I tried to book it. Unfortunately it was taken.

As you can see, the good old succubus fascination didn't go out of fashion yet, especially coupled with dancing... ;)

I'm sure we can find a few towels around :mrgreen:
Haha, yeah I guess I would not be surprised. I actually get that a lot. That or question if I played WoW for a long time or if I use to watch South Park. It was kind of fun the first three or four times but it got old very quick.
Thank you so much! I shall definitely ask if I need to!

I'm looking at shotgun+fists right now, though that may turn into shotgun+hammers.

There's two pretty good combos down that line from what we've seen of the skill wheel, one being crowd control and the other being buffs.
