Hello all. I jumped back into Conan after playing briefly at launch.
I've gotten a Conq and a BS to level 23ish, and I'm noticing that, in Cimmeria at least, the mobs are pretty thick in the wild, and I'll frequently be fighting 1 vs 2 or 3 or more. My Brute Conq fares pretty well, as does my BS, but they seem to die easier than I feel they should.
The melee combat feels like you need to constantly be repositioning yourself to hit all the mobs at once. If you try to burn down one mob at a time you WILL die.
I'm using the recommended builds for the classes, and it's more than a little frustrating to have to constantly be trying to get mobs to group up and stay grouped. It feels like if you have one ranged mob out in the back plinking away at you, it burns down your health pretty fast, and it's a pain in the butt to try to drag the 2 or 3 melee mobs on you all the way over to the ranged one, then reposition them so you can hit them all.
So I ask, what is the class that is EASIEST to do solo PvE content with? I want to see the world and enjoy the game, I don't really care which class it's with. I'd like to be able to kill stuff without having to fight with mob positioning every two seconds.
Also a shout out to henryx, your XII video is what brought me back. Your blog is awesome!
Thanks.
