What types of characters do you play?

I’m always curious what types of characters people play mostly whether it’s PvP or PvM. Not necessarily all of your characters but who you enjoy playing and are on more frequently. Might also give some ideas on new characters to build for those who enjoy trying new playstyles.

Here’s mine:
-Tamer with SW that I swap either disco or eval
-Chiv Archer with Swords
-Sampire
-Pure crafter
-treasure hunter with SW and Myst to solo all chests

wimpiest sampire ever

tamer with dragon that has high HP but sucks in every other way

tailor who can't make a chef's toque

ABC archer without enough dexterity or swing speed to pull it off

The one thing I used to be able to do I can't do any more because the game changed specifically to prevent ME from doing it. I must be famous.

my Tamer Weaver Disco Mage has been fun lately. Alot of fun actually. And my necromage of course is always a blast. I also just finished a necrotamer so thats going to be interesting as well :p

I most enjoy my sampires... I have a ton of them. A few variations but typically
120 swords
120 tactics
120 bushido
120 resist
100 necro
70 to 80 chiv
60 to 70 parry

I adore treasure hunting, so my TH/tamer and cu sidhe are usually "at work" on level 1 to 5 maps. Level 6 maps, I do with friends, so they can tame the cold drakes. Level 7 maps are with friends too, just for the fun of it. When I'm out of maps, and can't find any for a fair price at vendors, my TH retrieves new ones from Miasma.
I'm a crafter through and through, have all crafting skills divided multiple times over several characters so that I can collect a good amount of BoD's to earn a bit of money. The only thing keeping me from still expanding, is the problem of getting the resources at a decent price.
I love fishing too, and hunting pirates (or merchant ships *blush*).
My provo mage is next on the list, and finally come my archer and fencer.

Tamer by choice mostly my Tamer/Weaver though I do like my Tamer/Mystic... and other Tamer combo's as well

and more often than not my ABC Archer...

Other than that I play my Fisher, THunter or if I'm forced to I play a Sampire... Macing... though I hate it with a passion.

Mainly a stealther/mage,, fast punching and escaping.

When it comes to fighting... tamer/discord/mage. Cam rez people.


Otherwise many of the other staff are scouts, crafters, fisher... and specialized in any possible way.

I have an old classic fighter, but he's almost worthless to the new skills... BUT he has his jobs.

I also have another tamer that is skilled with a bow for a double attack.

So, fact… I'm not a big game hunter. My main job is vendorizing. :)

Disco tamer is my most played temp.

I have a necrotamer with magery too. Casting wither alongside a pet with bushido swinging whirlwind and a sc -mage wep bow with hit area will clean some spawn efficiently. The -mage bows add a little damage on bosses too as you sit back in comfort and let the pet earn their keep.

Things to remember is corpse skin increases phy while lowering fire and poison so don't use a phy damage pet. Omen is amazing with something like a dreadmare that casts firebreath.

Wow! That’s a ton of stones.

Maybe I’m unique, but I like the idea of having characters with designated roles and play styles and not swapping a ton of skills. Makes it more exciting for me to build a character, put together a suit and learn to play it.

A bunch, and usually in streaks until I miss playing a template - then I switch. ;)

Favorites are:

Disco or peace tamer, Sampire, Lumberjack Leach Pally, Disco Archer, Mystic THunter, Fisher, Crafter, and lately a Necro Tamer.

Every shard I play on has at least a THunter, crafter, fisher, disco archer, some type of dexer and a tamer. Well, except Siege.

I have tamers, sampires, crafters, mystics - but my go-to template anymore whenever feasible is the gargoyle mystic, because he can just cast Rising Colossus and fly away until time for the next one - a very lazy play style :)
