Trait sets...

[Olmandis]

Does anyone know what they're going to commit to?

e-yooooooooo...

The Fighter of Shadow

The Fighter of Shadow line focuses on improving a Guardian’s ability to keep a boss monster occupied over an extended fight. It stresses power regeneration, critical and devastating defensive abilities, and shield functionality. With the introduction of devastating attacks, the ability of the Guardian to reduce incoming critical and devastating hits provided by this set allows a Fighter of Shadow to even out damage. The Guardian can now reduce the risk of a chain of deadly enemy critical hits more than any other class.

I wanna be the senior citizen dwarf what is going toe to toe with god knows whats.

Of the other talents, one has increased threat, which I never had a problem with, and usually that falls on the rest of the party to realize what they can do to assist their tank-party members to ensure no opp's occur, and second, Onyxblade will be standing next to me, so, yah. That talent tree seems like it would be great for controlling additional mobs on the board with minimal effort, as it grants more threat to basic traits, perhaps making him the best at picking up and controlling mobs on screen...


The final set involves, get this, increased damage. Defiantly not my thing, but I see where they were going and that could be interesting, but not for me.

So do you guys have any talent set that popped right out at you?

[OnyxBlade]

I'll be going with the champion tanking set and the berzerker traits. Going to be expensive to switch between them but will probably keep the tanking set at 5 and the berzerker set at 2 most of the time, unless I'm going into an instance with a guardian in which case I'll switch up.

[OnyxBlade]

If the silly forums weren't down again, I'da post what there were....grrr

But for champions, the 3 sets are Tank, Single Target DPS and AOE DPS.

[Verewen of Rohan]

Healy Captain set, of course. Though the buffing set looks pretty darned cool too. I'll have to play around with them a bit, methinks.

Super Massive Damage Hunter, of course...aka Bowmaster. I like being a glass cannon. And maybe one or two from Trapper of Foes for power/threat management. Without doing anything, I'm already specced to have bonuses from both of those. Extra crit and extra power regen. Yum.

I have no idea what I'm going to do yet. I'll have to study it a bit when I can actually get online. I didn't do much pre-studying.

I usually like to be a jack-of-all-trades, so it's going to be hard for me to commit to one spec. I may try doing something damage related while leveling, and then when I hit 60 go for healing/buffing. That's what I tend to do mostly anyway when I'm with you guys. I'm used to killing slow, so if I sacrifice a little dps I don't think it'll kill me. I'll just level my hunter or champion to get my fix for that.

[OnyxBlade]

My idea on Champions is that they do enough DPS without being maxed out on it. So I prefer to max out my "staying alive" ability as much as I can. Cause, once I'm dead, I ain't doing ANY damage.

[Delaney]

None of the Burglar sets grabbed me straight off. I'll probably mix the Gambler with whatever the debuff build was.
