This is really a simple question but I was really cutious... What is your main characters class or your fav. class? And what do you like and dislike about their abilities.

My class is Ranger, he uses a Greywolf's sword, a large shield +1, full plate mail, The Helm of Glory, the Algerons cloak, and ring of protection +2.

RANGERS ROCK OUT!!!!!!!!!!!

Question Mark

Fighters. Straight fighters. I know, tis shameful to be so doldrumly predictable (that is, if doldrumly is even a word), but i just love being able to achieve Grand Mastery in my weapon of choice (e.g. bows and a few *'s in long swords) so that i have some killer Thaco and damage stats. I love being the tank, and just wading into a pack of skeletons, flailing madly with fist and sword, flinging bones and spectral goo in all directions, madly tearing through the opposition, with some sort of spell or protection, to keep me from being hit by spells etc., and an armor class so low that they wonder if there's even hope of scoring a decent hit. I love it!!!!!

I love mages. Having to rely on wit and strategies with magic in order to survive and deal out damage is a pleasant change from the usual hack and slash methods. I love the fact that you don't need a weapon, and that you get by through intelligence as opposed to brawn. I also enjoy the versitility of being a spellcaster; you can evoke a 'magic missle' spell and have the equivalent of arrows flying from your fingertips, cast 'invisibility' or 'knock' and you can be better than any rogue, or cast 'spirit armour' and strut around as if you were a fighter wearing chainmail.

Well, I just started with him, but I really like my Paladin. They are fighters with Cleric spells, and special abilities. But he's still at the lower levels to.

Welcome to the boards there ThaddeusKarine...My favorite class of character is a halfling fighter/thief...you get all of the abilities of the halfling thief and you still can use weapons like long swords and Composite bows.

i go with fighter too, currently on an ac of -6 and i just wade into anything, even 20 black talon elite archers firing at him dont score a hit (like 60 arrows and no hits or maybe one if they get lucky) the rest of my party just lounge around in the background lighting up cigarettes and downing beers (well so id imagine [img]tongue.gif[/img] )

Welcome to the boards ThaddeusKarine. [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img]
I like Paladins. The glory of sending some evil creature back to hell is always appealing to me.
