WAR (Warhammer Online)

It seems that every type of character gets pretty much the same skills.  Each healer gets the same skills....direct heal, HoT, a direct dmg, a DoT.  Each tank gets the same skills....At least up until lvl10.  Haven't played past that, but if the pattern continues, then ...just seems like they didn't put much room for difference.

Another useless post.

It's kind of true really. From what I've seen from starting levels of mirror characters, Bright wizards and Sorcerers get identical skills, even animations are the same. Also goes for Rune priests and zealots.

I guess you guys have never played Lineage II right ?! lol...

I don't know for WAR since i haven't got into the CB and wont be preordering the game JUST to play the OB (this is juste a little critic against people using the term "Open Beta" who used to be in my time open to all the public... but whatever), BUT for Lineage II you would get pretty much the same spells and skills for the 4 races until level 20 and even there, your 2nd classe skills would be around 50% of the similar classe of the other races.

Still, it was fun ! :)

But as i said, i don't know for WAR...

I played Lineage 2 and sure some of the skills were the same...up until you picked your subclasses or whatever they were called.  But so far in war, every class is a mirror image of the opposing class.

hes right you know, i played to level 2 and found the skills and itemisation to be frankly rubbish. also, the lack of raids at level 2 will kill this game, we need dungeons and mad lewts to keep our attention.

basically this game is not similar enough to WoW for me.

Mirror classes get a lot of carry over but saying 'all healers get the same spells' is not true at all.

In your op you said every healer gets a hot etc but really this isnt true if you read about the classes some healers have to melee to heal better others can just stand off and heal.

Yes healers heal and dps ermm dps but there is a mix off it and tbh every class his its strengths and weakness's and ways they can be played to be better,your op doesnt really do much except leave you open to be flamed.

W T F did you expect? I have not played a minute but hell on earth what did you think WAR is? It's a friggin RvR MMORPG.

It's not revolutionary and they NEVER said it was, they said it would be a new RvR experience like DaoC was, but taken a step further. A quality MMORPG, running, fluid, styled, balanced, fun. If you're looking for a miracle game go join Brad McQuaids secret vision cult or sth whatever...

Jesus...

I am sorry but posts like this only shows that some poeple are so closeminded when it comes to something NEW and new class mechanics that they only see what they want to see. Think every healer is the same? Try a Warrior Priest and tell me what you think. It is by far the most fun and unique healer I have ever played.
