Alright people, check this out... Short and Simple!
My first character that I leveled to 32 in like 2 weeks was an Archmage. I must say during that time, the game was a bit stale. I mean I couldn't get over the fact that the game was so heavy on scenario's, and usually 1 scenario per tier because it was the only one played ever, that I couldn't really get into the game. I came directly from all of Mythic's other games from before gaming was cool and Mythic was an unknown company basically. Games like Spellbinder, Magestorm, and hell even Godzilla Online (CAMERA MAN!!! :-P ), THEN DAOC. Which is in fact the best PvP, excuse me I mean RvR based game i've ever played. Honestly I wish Mythic would make a spellbinder 2, the game was that fun, but getting back to the topic, I couldn't stand Warhammer Online at the time! I was so bored with the game that I made so many new characters and got them all to about level 20 just to see if it would be any different. It wasn't and I used up all my character slots...
I ended up going back to play DAoC for a couple of months and let Warhammer bake for a bit at 350 for about 2 months. When I finally did come back to the game, which was about 2 days ago after the big career changing patch and the addition of the Black Guard and Knight of the Blazing Sun. I said to myself, I really don't want to play my archmage and just decided to start from scratch to get that new game euphoria that I love so much. I went with the Knight of the Blazing Sun and so far is only level 12 (in one day) but my experiences so far in Tier 1 have really made me feel like I made the right move giving the game some time to bake. The Open RvR really gives it a DAoC feel but the option of doing scenarios every so often is really nice as well simply because I'm not relying on them to have fun. Another thing that really impressed me was the fact that you know get those lovely OpenRvR influence rewards and for the knight in Tier 1 when I got my epic greatsword, WATCH OUT, because it made me hit like a truck. I'm really excited to level this guy up some more that way I can see the bigger and better additions i've heard about in the later Tier's (ie. Weapons and Armor looks, and Open RvR is only better... yadda yadda... we'll see. :] )
I haven't gotten to check out all the new changes and everything they threw in the game so far but when I do I will post a new update on how everything looks to me. An extensive class review if you will. :)
I Until next time I post about how much Warhammer is really fun now. Send me a tell in game on ironfist if ya want to just say hi or talk smack or whatever. I love it all!
WAAAAAAAAGH!!!
