The new expansion, stand alone game, appears to be an entirely new continent. < > < > I'm having fun with the game, but as usual, can't pick a combination that will be fun 40 hrs of play later. Reminds me of CoH with the FotM where everyone gravitated to a specific build. I know folks say there is no bad build, but there is definately a difference in play.< > < > My first was a Warrior/Necro and I figured it to be an SK, so good PvP, the life taps heal and do dmg. < > < > Then I tried an Elementalist/Ranger which is like a mage since you get a pet and can do AE/targeted spell dmg. The difference in killing speed was HUGE. I could drop 4 mobs without effort. The pet was like a DoT, and helped keep mobs off me. I also like the fire spell that heals a % of the mana you spend casting dmg.< > < > The FotM seems to be Warrior/Monk (Paladin), and I've seen quite a few Elementalist/Mesmer.< > < > It also seems strange that you can hang out in pre-Searing (the tutorial) for as long as you want, with some folks there till lvl 10, when the game only has 20 lvls. I guess that's not too much of a stretch from just picking a PvP pre-made lvl 20 to play in arena's. The armor/look selection seems a bit limited.< > < > It's basically Diablo III. Which isn't shocking since it was made by the developers from Diablo. The size of the continent is just so big, there would be a lot to explore.< > < >
