Guest, it's time once again for the massively important and exciting FoH Asshat Tournament!
Go here and give us your nominations!Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
Anyone recommend kfm as a main? I have excellent ping but don't want to get into another blademaster situation.
I feel like summoner would be the best to main but I really want a character that takes some skill at least that can solo with good farming ability, basically a summoner without being a sunmoner if that makes sense.

Well assassin then. There is only 2 good farming classes, sin and summoner, I mean for like soloing dungeons and shit. Sin becomes poopy at some point then better once you learn to play(basically you stop relying on stealth killing shit and have to dodge and block like a real boy) but that point is at lvl 50, which is probably a few months away. KFM can solo, but it's not as fast or efficient as sin. Nothing really is, even summoner is quite a bit slower than sin for current shit.
KFM's great though and can solo about everything in the game if you're skilled enough, but like it's not some easy shit.

with sin you can solo everything, dungeons included up to poharan, just not pohran herself (at least i cant). Its very fast but its also very taxing on your hand (at least mine). With summoner you can solo pretty much everything, just a bit slower than sin, i find summoner more relaxing but thats just my personal opinion.
Skillwise, imho there is not much of a difference in gap between summ and assassins. Sin you want to stay in perma stealth (which is not really perma, but since the cd of stealth, if talented its the same as its duration, you can re enter stealth the moment it drop in several ways, doesnt always work tho). tons of video around to show ya how to, and while you fight all you do is heart stab/ligh crash (or pierce) animation cancel with the lightning rod when is up (so rmb/f/4).

Well on EU the price tanked already. It's been going down for a week but had stabilized at 25s for the past 2-3days, but now it's at 22-23 since today. It might spike back up after the patch when people figure they actually need soulstones to do some of the new shit like upgrading, but I'd expect it to go lower once arena people flood the market with some. I sold all I had earlier today for 25s, mind you, it was only about 60 of them, from my 3 chars daillies, I've been selling them constantly. I sold a lot back when they were 35-40s. I'll rebuy them after the patch at a lower price, once I actually start uprading my weapons.
But yeah if you want to upgrade to pirate asap you might want to keep however many you need for that, which is probably a ton anyway. Cause as I said I expect the prices to possibly spike for a few days for that reason.

I'm using a Razer Naga that I got a macro functioning for the ani-cancel today, works pretty well.
PS: Do I use my Moonwater key on a Forgotten Brightstone chest, or on the Storm Siren box I have?
Well you need wpns from both chest sooo. I generally open without moonwater key till i have 1 chest left, and then i use the key if no luck. Save also the blue weapons from brightstone, as you will need it to breaktrough lvl 5 awakened siren.

Yeah, we're not really nerfed at all, in fact I'm sure we'll be better off because our builds will be more well-rounded with these 11 extra skill points.
I'm thinking something likethis, it gets pretty much everything I want, and can move around a few points depending on taste (like drop 4 points in LMB -> 1 axe sweep for range, 1 more wrath for focus regen, 1 more grab for focus dmg, 1 backstep for speed).
