Rift: Like WoW Meets Warhammer, Except Less Shitty

Krylo · 03-23-2011, 12:10 AM

So I had this game bought for me, and to my surprise I am actually enjoying it quite a bit. Rogue tanks are not only viable but actually work quite well and are, I understand, actually preferred for some encounters, and there are mages that are quite good at healing too (I healed an instance the other night with my mage after buying an extra role for it). Etc. Etc.

Mostly I'm enjoying playing around with the fact that you get 3/8 subclasses for each class, and can change those subclasses on a whim, and for pretty cheap (respeccing is cheap as shit), which lets me play with all these build ideas and what not. So far I'm really enjoying Necromancer/Warlock, Nightblade/Ranger, and Paragon/Riftblade/Beastmaster.

ANYWAY, THAT IS ALL POINTLESS BULLSHIT:

Mostly I just want to know this: Anyone else play? If so, Shard/Class/Level/Name/Faction.

I've got characters on Neddra (PvP) 'cause that is where I was first introduced, Shadefallen (PvE RP) 'cause Ren plays there (if anyone remembers who that is anymore), and Aedraxis (PvE) 'cause SOMEONE doesn't like PvP (it's my mother).

I mostly prefer Defiant, but most of my characters have ended up being Guardian because for some reason most of the people I've been playing with are Guardian. Even though Defiant is obviously superior.

But as that I suffer from severe altoholism and am all over already, I wouldn't mind making a character on someone else's shard or whatever.
