Favourite class [NEW]

[Torp]

I've seen 'most annoying class' threads, 'most op build' threads, and stuff like that, but no favourite class poll.

This is basically a poll on the class you like the most. Not the class you're best with, nor the class you think is OP; the class you enjoy playing.

I have a hard time figuring out what my favourite weapon class is, but it's definitely 2H or polearm.
I like them because they are the 2 classes that (in my opinion) are hardest to play and takes most positioning, reflexes and awareness.
I also think they are the classes that are best if you master them.
Apart from the weapon i like the ninja style; having high agi and lgiht armor, but being faster than everyone else.


I won't be able to have all classes in this poll, but i'll have some; post if you think im missing an important one.

EDIT: remember that you have TWO votes!!!
and i need a detailed explanation on how to edit poll

[Rhygar666]

1hand + xbow

i voted Shielder+bow or xbow and Melee+bow or xbow

[Shonu]

Voted for balanced 2H even though I have slightly more agi than str.

[Joelturuz]

I can't help noticing that poll is lacking shield+spear option.

[Torp]

Voted for balanced 2H even though I have slightly more agi than str.

imo balanced is 18/21 - 21/18

I can't help noticing that poll is lacking shield+spear option.

well, it should be covered by the shielder class... if more people want it (and i learn how to edit poll) i might add it

You forgot peasant..

[Riddaren]

You should split up the cavalry option into:
pure 1h cavalry
pure polearm cavalry
cavalry 1h/polearm

And horse archer too.

[Torp]

You forgot peasant..

well, if you are a polearm agi based peasant - choose agi polearm

if you are 2h str based peasant - choose str based 2h

if you're a rock throwing peasant - choose thrower

[zagibu]

STR based polearm is cool in sieges, you can just stand at the side of a ladder and hack everything down with great long bardiche.

[Gristle]

1hand + xbow

i voted Shielder+bow or xbow and Melee+bow or xbow

Same here.

[Torp]

You should split up the cavalry option into:
pure 1h cavalry
pure polearm cavalry
cavalry 1h/polearm

And horse archer too.

good idea - now i just need to know how to edit poll

[Siiem]

Why is cavalry here just cavalry... you can go balanced as cavalry aswell which I have done and it was fun

[Spawny]

Where's the strength build shielder option?

I wanna pick that one.

From the beginning (which is not long ago - been playing just a few weeks) I have pursued not the highest possible kill count (I get beaten up most of the time anyways with my 200-300 ping...), but combinations that give me the most fun.

So far I am quite happy with my "fighting archer" with 1H sword (usually Niuweido) and strongbow + shield & Bodkin arrows + medium armor  - any "pure" archer can take me out, they are just faster, have more arrows and are more precise, but I am good enough to deliver a few headshots and make melee guys look like funny roosters with three arrows in their butt, does not matter one of our melee guys usually harvests the kill ;-). Oh, and I get better and better at headshotting those freaking ponies... ;-)

And as a swordsman - though crippled by my playing skills and my ping - this build can do a little "out of arrows ladder/ramp raging" (I am playing siege most of the time), which is always fun (well, ok, a very brief fun most of the time... ;-) ), take out a few archer friends when I get to them, or hold up a shield at the flag until some melee guys return from their ego trips and save my sorry ass and the flag... ;-)

Besides having fun, another reason for that combination is that I prefer "civilized" weapons and the ones that I would choose in real life as well (ok, would use a Longbow there, but in the game I don't like its behaviour), not stuff that just happens to be overpowered in the current release of the game or the mod (like those unrealistic hammers or the throwing stuff that has almost the same reach as my bow and does more damage, lol....)
