Hmm, I'll have to look into it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] That sounds great!

I was torn between bard, druid, and shaman. I still Iove the druid kiting and ports. A definite plus!

[Llurendt]

I'm thinking my next character might be a mage. The pets plus offensive damage sounds fun. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

True that, that earth pet is Godly. lol

Add my shaman in game as a friend, never know when you'll need a SoW �� lol. Shamanana. My girl is waiting on the exemption approval to be able to play as well.

Ya, especially at very early levels, mage pets are stronger than even a twinked melee character. Mages are especially great with a partner, because the pet will eat half your xp if you are solo, and it outdamages you (which it will almost always).

Also, A pet is completely expendable, a melee PC is not =) So, you don't really even have to heal it. Just making a new one is usually more efficient. Mage+any healer/caster/bard maybe, is a great combo to start fresh with.

You can also go Mage/melee, but the melee has to Joust probably (use a slower weapon and jump in and out between mob melee rounds)

[Llurendt]

Thanks for the advice, Lemonhead! I'll probably start the mage when the IP thing goes through and I start a character with my SO. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I'll go ahead and add you Subidoo!

[Subidoo]

Sounds like a plan ��

[Llurendt]

I added you on my Druid: Kirlune

[Subidoo]

Awesome, what level is your druid?
