Does anyone else really suffer from this to the point where it's getting hard to progress anymore? Granted pre-patch I had that whole 4 weapon hybrid experiement, which while gimp as hell vs any pure-build in 1v1's gave me the ability to swap up entire playstyles for the lulz on a whim.
Now I find myself with 16 characters...
Pures:
1h/noshield
1h/shield
2h
polearm
Bow
Hybrids:
2h/throwing
2h/xbow
2h/archery
polearm/throwing
polearm/xbow
polearm/cav
1h/polearm/cav
1h/xbow
1h/throwing
1h/archery
And I was thinking of trying a 1h/2h/shield
hybrid, maybe with some riding....
Anyone else just have a really hard time not wanting to do everything at random times?
-
16 alts?! :shock:
Man, I thought I had alot with 6. Granted most are hybrids, but still. 16 o.o
But I see no problem, sometimes you just have the wrong build for a map or compared to the rest of the server population. Once that happens, its nice to be able to switch to a character able to do better in that situation.
All my char's are floating around 20 something so stat wise they're all more than capable of pwning if the player wishes it so. If you're thinking about the 30-31 level gap, well...thats going to take a while regardless of a bunch of alts.

Good god. Worse than me!

I currently have 17 characters. Well, they aren't all characters, just names. I had more, but I deleted them because resetting the password on all of them was annoying. Now, of course, I'm starting to remake them.
So in other words, yes, I completely understand. And I really miss having my main at level 35 and able to actually do all three of his jobs well.
-
I have an archer and a two-hand/crossbow character.
Don't need anything more than that....
-
I've always been a alt-a-holic. I dont understand how anyone can play the same character. like I make a char level it up, its good. it works. ok now its boring lets try something else...
my gripe is the new retirement system doesn't really support my altism because of uber grind between 30-31, inability to reroll hierlooms at lvl 15 retire. when retire first came out I loved it because it rewarded people like me who reroll. now it sux.
-
I've been polearm/cav since the first iteration of cRPG, and my tastes havent varied much. Maybe some throwing in a build here and there, but that's my niche.
-
Meh, I used my retirement to experiment. But ended up as a pure 2h on it. After the patch I have a 1h/thrower hybrid alt. Which is actually a extraordinary funny class to play :D I might just make a archer alt one day if I feel like selling my soul to the devil "himself" hurr hurr.
-
I played City of Heroes at one point. That's all I have to say on the topic.
-
if you use a 1h/2h build with cav, a morningstar would be great, its deadly 1handed on cav and 2handed for when your horse dies. Only prob is lack of range on horseback, you would want a heavy, expensive :D, horse
-
2h/polearm (my supposed main), a shielder, and an archer. I keep on fending off the need to go thrower. I generally settle on the shielder these days.
-
2h
pole/cav
1h/shield
xbow/1h
archer/2h
thrower/pole
btw all ranged classes are kinda boring
-
Don't u have enough work in playing those 16? I got 7 and I got plenty work in getting them to level 30 and having fun too. Why don't u create some historical character or some weird own creation who specialize in some particular weapon(s)?

Try melee hybrids:
2h/polearm, focussed on using 2h swords with ocational halfswording(get's a slight upgrade). also good for 2ndary pike on open battlefields.
1h/2h, uses hybrid weapons. at the moment it's only langes messer and fighting axe. I plan to add more though.

I have made this kind of build and it is really nice to swap the 1h to 2h (or vice versa) instantly just by pressing "X" in tight situations and when got some space, just change to longer secondary 2hand weapon.
-
I have 4 characters:
1h/crossbow
throwing/horseman
archer
super str 2h
-
I made alts to try other classes, but I like being a lulzy jack of all trades. I don't get all that many kills, but I don't play seriously anyways.
Right now, Zelos is a 1h/polearm/archer hybrid. 1 pd, I can atleast get circling horse archers with a hunting bow.

Nice, that was actually my plan for the 1h/2h/shield guy I was mentioning I'm thinking about making. I use the langes messer on my main 1her and have since it was added to the game (just because I think it's stylish and I didn't really see anyone else using it). He has the fighting axe as well. :) Just no 2h prof to really take advantage of swapping.
I think I'll level him today.
-
I've got four characters.
1. a mostly 2h wielding character, who only uses 1h on horseback.
2. Polearm using beggar.
3. Cowardly archer who has equal skill in archery and 1h.
4. A 1h dedicated character without a shield. Tried using a shield for this character but didn't like it. He is named after a kebab restaurant where I just ate.

Hmm... You might try a mounted javeline/pole skirmisher. Was not on your list, and should be fun in the post-patch cRPG.
Cheapest cloths, lvl 3 shield, javelines - put it all on a War Horse = good times.

I have 4
My 2hand he's 29
1h is level 20 very promising but so much time to get a low gen up
My polearm just 22 kinda hard to level so many
My archer just retired at 15 for a doover, but he's the gen 1 and may go on the back burner
Once I get Darth to 30 I am thinking of making a fencer
-
I have 3 characters
1. Archer/polearm
2. 2h w/ shield
3. 1h/polearm w/ shield/ cav.(haven't got enough money to actually use the cav yet, lol)
I played a 1h/ thrower before and didn't like it that much.
Out of all my chars I must say I've had the most fun with my 2h(because of the animations and sounds mostly).
I also have an utter hatred for xbows just becaue of how they are used in this game right now.

How do you spent your time at home playing the game and care about children in the same time :shock: Think of the children!
-
Well, luckily kids sleep sometimes. On which level is your kiddo, Gorath?

Old enough to play!
I'm kidding. I would not want a child that age exposed to the online community.
