Game: Rift
There really are a lot of different combination possibilities which I think will give Rift some legs long term, still I think they could have made the action look a bit more exciting...
Sure! As long as you don't mind being the bottom of the food chain, and doing less dps than... err... everyone, including clerics.
Want to be viable in Rift, roll a Mage or Cleric. Best bet would be to stick with the Pyro though... with the WH Brighwizard dev in charge of balance and all!
I mean, sab's were nerfed into oblivion as they were hitting for 3-4k hit's occasionally, but it's clearly ok for Pyro's to be hitting for double these numbers, and putting out 50% higher sustained DPS WHILST being immune to CC and taking 30% less damage.
^ but even if balance wasn't laughable, the game still fails, especially in terms of PVP. Mindless warfront grinds do not make for good endgame PVP, period.
Lol if youre not yet playing this, plz dont start, our servers are so busy that we just couldnt handle any more ppl, so plzz rather play wow or sum other boring ol mmo with no dynamic content and no world events.

Wed Apr 13 2011 2:00PM ReportThey forgot to show the part where the pyromancer looks at the rogue and one shots him. ;)
Cool video nontheless though.
Wed Apr 13 2011 2:35PM ReportParalyzing Strike + Puncture + Back Stab + Final Blow = Dead Pyromancer before he even knew what hit him.
Wed Apr 13 2011 3:27PM ReportShould've shown the rogue tanking soul, if they were showing off already...
Good video, though. I can't wait to see their Cleric Souls one :P
Wed Apr 13 2011 3:29PM ReportToo bad all of those soul combinations they showed suck.
Way to hate rogues, Trion.
Wed Apr 13 2011 5:54PM ReportCreate your own class and get ready to Suck and Blow because that's all you'll be doing.

Thu Apr 14 2011 5:49AM ReportRift was billed as a snadbox mmo. LOL. Its no where near sandbox. Only sandbox mmo out there is Eve Online.
As for Rift itself. Its ok if you like the grind fest and pointless warfront pvp like WoW.
Thu Apr 14 2011 3:20PM Reportrogues can stun lock you here too so ...
Thu Apr 14 2011 4:28PM ReportPlease ignored the teleporting sniper - please just move on. Propaganda here...nothing to see.
