Hello. i was thinking on having a main melee class. right now my main demo is a lot of fun. but the most fun feature in AOC is the melee combat system . i've already played melee classes so don't get me wrong on me been a total AOC noob. and i need help on choosing a melee class to stick with it. i've tried all classes here. but a lot bored me. rangers are too easy, sin's kill so fast, is not even rewarding for me (cause no matter what, you will always kill fast)conquerors are jokingly easy and OP and so on...
so i'm between these 2, the bear shaman or the dark templar and i need advice from you guys (focus on pvp please, im not much into pve):
-I've already played DT but i leave it on lvl 50,i didn't die much once i got heavy armor and the damage is decent. i wanted to know how is the gameplay further up lvl 50+. does it change? does it add something cool? will lvl 80 minis be a pain without VoM and pvp tier 1?(i ask this, because as a demo i had a lot of fun without pvp tier 1 yet and i also killed a few geared players in every mini)are DT only a meat shield whom i will be only capping flags and no kills?
-I've played with BS but i leave it on lvl 40. i tended to die a lot, but that was so long ago (back when i first started playing aoc), i played very noobish with BS. i think i remember not even using manifestations so i missed a lot of BS key spells and skills. people say bs are very good at surviving and supporting team, and also deal damage. and that increases even more at lvl 80. is this true? will lvl 80 minis be a pain without a key perk (dont know any from bs)or pvp tier gear? does it add something cool at lvl 40+?
thanks for your advice.
