Stacked Subclasses

[Fauk]

Hi everyone this is my first post ;)

A friend told me about the game and I was bored so I tried it. I´m playing on a free char PvP Server and I´m currently a Spellsinger lvl 80. The Server has C6 and things like a Gm shop and a Buffer Npc so PvP is fun, because you can´t donate so you don´t have to play against players with +40 or more enchanted weapons.

But now I have heard about stacking sub classes. This means you can choose your basic class and a sub class and combine their skills. So I started thinking which sub class would be good for me.

It´s very difficult to find the right sub class because on this server you don´t need a buffer because you can buy all buffs from the npc. Then you cannot sleep or stun an enemy because you can buy the boss jewels which means you have a high resistance to those effects. So I dont know which sub class would be good for me.

First I thought of an Overlord or something like that to boost my hp and to wear a heavy armor, but then I thought "shit", it would be better if you keep wearing the dark crystle robe to get the 15% spell casting speed.

Then I fought of a Necromancer to get the curses and the undeads to have more hp. But then it would be the same as with the overlord as a subclass because the curses are not so good on this server and you resist as good as everything.

So can you give me some advices on which sub class I should choose?

Go for whatever your heart tells you and then ENCHANT your SKILLS. For mages go to Ivory tower, for fighters in Rune.

Have fun :) ;)

Enchant your skills? Is that possible?, or what do you mean with that? ^^

If you play on a server with stacking subclasses, it's a bad idea to mix fighter and mage classes, at least it didn't work for me...

another thing.. don't think too much... :D I thought over what classes i was going to take to make the perfect damage dealer mage.. instead i ended up with a really good healer in raid battles but i sucked at pvp... then i made a warlock, blade dancer and 2 buffers to own every summon in my server.. that worked and as a side effect i had casting speed ~7k (I also had custom tattoos, one gave casting speed) but the casting speed was useless cause the best damage spell that i had was steal essence and if i held down the F1 key(steal essence) with full mana for 4 seconds, i was out of mana :D it really did some damage and healed me pretty good but a mage can't do anything after hi/she is out of mana.

I think the way forward with stacked subs is a sps base and ol stacked, i mean, imagine spamming steal essence at sps speeds.......:O

[TanelTM]

steal essence was nothing compared to aura bolt... if you had that much casting speed and held down a key for aura bolt the character didn't even say the words to cast the spell(actually that was the case with steal essence too) and the char attacked so fast the spells visual effect slow'd down so much that after you stoped casting it, the visual effect was still around, you like a shield, for ~5-6 seconds...

my friend got his attack speed really high... with fist weapons the char only reached for the monster with one hand and kept his hand still until the monster was dead :D

ya, but im looking at the fact that SE not only hurts ppl, it also heals u, so is more useful. ps, ive had those odd animations without stacked subs, eg: spamming death spike such that i have the red thing at my feet, but nothing comes out untill after i finish casting.

[TanelTM]

well with stacking subclasses, steal essence is pointless.. you'll take half of someones hp in pvp and then you'll be out of mana and a mage is basically dead without mana :D

mana potions>.>

[TanelTM]

already tried that.. against a player with dagger skills and the right subclasses, the other character will take your full hp(cp already gone) before you have 100% of your mana back(even if you spamm the mana potions).. the other player will hit you sooo fast and he/she will crit you very frequently.
But that was on my server before the summer.. i had a wipe at the beginning of the summer and i changed some things, made the server harder.
