Warlords are good but I think players overvalue them for the stamina regen buff they bring. It's pretty minimal (+1 Stamina every 6 seconds). Warlord's better utility comes through their group HP regen (very useful when fighting enemies with AoE damage as no other class has an AoE heal until Duelist at 22) and their fear (which can help peel a mob if your Marshal or Brigand is asleep at the wheel or out of stamina). Late game they get a group haste buff which theoretically is insane, but that's at level 26 and I have yet to even see a player higher than level 25.

Yeah that's what i'm going for. I was leaning towards Brigand since I assumed Marshalls low popularity meant they weren't good. I have a brigand only lvl 3 and am making a Marshall, question though are they able to solo (with this latest change)?

The one marshall we rolled with had some nice abilities for group content, I'm guessing the name is what threw everyone.

If it's the Sylas I know, telling him to suck a dick won't do anything but get his motor runnin'.

I started up and it's running fine even though my computer is on the lower end of the required specs. Probably the only 2 annoying things right now are how much I hate the default setup for every single window in the game, I'm going to be tweaking it forever, and how much I suck at the simple quests. Find a guy, ok I'll just wander forever. In pretty much every other way I like it so far. It should be a perfect background game for work.

So halt (class defining marshall skill) is literally just an aoe root spell? We get no other cc abilities, and since there is no graphic for party members to see that mobs are rooted, it only works as cc if i am the only tank (so i can back up and drag the kill target away) or if i pull or assist the puller and root things en route to the party.
I mean it works i guess. Grinded all weekend, any group when im the mt were smooth as butter cus i could cc adds and back up. Solid efficient grinding made 2 levels quickly. But anytime we had a knight or another tank join party was rough cus a: tank instinct is to attack adds for aggro so they dont b-line for healers and b: they dont see when ive rooted the adds so they end up breaking root or standing next to the mob taking hits.

So a guild mate made me some imbued tin pieces. Like chest and a shield, cant carry too much wt yet at lvl 11, but oh man what a difference ac makes in this game. Going from like 50ac with random dropped pieces to 225 ac changes combat so much. Went from only soloing 1^ to comfortably soloing 2^, even with adds since i can cc.

If you got a solid group to play with or like running with randos and being social, yes. I got my 30 bucks out of it but it got harder to get anything done with short play windows and not many people to play with. I didn't want to group up for 20 mins and leave, there is a lot of prep and camping to get shit done.

I've seen one medium sized dungeon the only time I ran through it we were op a bit and never felt threatened really. I didn't see fast respawn or random named but I have seen that in the wilderness. Maybe someone who has more experience with that aspect could fill that in. They do look good though and the way they do death is reasonable. I'm having a good time, not rushing to level, and the is plenty to see.
I'm curious as well what people are seeing post 25.

Been using a lvl 10 crafted quarterstaff since level 10. Just hit lvl 20 and crafted the next tier upgrade for myself....which gave me a whopping additional +1 to bonus over the lvl 10 staff I had been using.
Suffice it to say, cntent and itemization need some serious tuning post lvl 20.
