Welcome Edda~ I played RO too! What server did you play on? I'm a complete novice to RPing, but everyone here has been really nice and helpful when I'd ask question or for help. So don't worry too much and ask away.

I always hated seeing threads like this and it's what kept me from registering here. After most of the backhanded comments and new player head hunting died down is when I decided to join HRC. I can't help but to feel bad now since deciding on Gilgamesh is stepping on some people's toes. I wish everyone could just have more tact on both sides. It's suppose to be a community right?

Just a quick question but why is it bad to be an offtank? I mostly played healing classes so I've yet to learn the in and outs of being a tank person! I don't know anything about Warrior or Paladins since I've only played the beta as Marauder and Gladiator. I did get to level 35 with both classes though. Up to those levels I felt gladiator did far less damage than marauders. Playing gladiator was much easier tanking since conjurer's didn't need to heal me as much. I found taking care of enmity much easier as marauder though. I think the biggest problem I had as Marauder was running low on TP and slowing my party down a little bit. I got better at managing it but I lose a lot of TP when I need to get enmity back from someone or in longer boss fights. Something I liked about marauder more than gladiator was that they can use their stun attack off the global cool down, but it's cool down time was much longer if I remember correctly. I think the general idea is that Warrior is an HP tank that has good AOE enmity gain. While Paladin is a high defense tank with less damage output. It felt like both can do their jobs well borrowing skills and using slightly different strategies. What we don't know is how much will late game bosses hurt. I think warrior will be a better tank for leveling, but maybe not in major boss type situations. I guess that's not very helpful huh? Also I think I typed too much this time.. sorry! =T

Welcome Lahni! See you in game sometime~

The lalafell characters seem most menacing to me. |д･)

Yes I bet that can look cool! I don't really mind it. It could be because I'm new to RP but as long as they explain it well enough it's okay with me. If anything I'm more bothered about lighting posing and wearing Miqo'te racial armor because it doesn't suit her personality at all. That said I only played through FFXIII not XIII-2 so I dunno if she has any sweeping changes in her character.

This sounds really cool! I look forward to seeing this come into fruition. (•‿•)

I love how diverse everyone is looking so far! Yes I totally agree~

Are fishing spots like nodes, or are they like an entire body of water? 100 does sound like very few if they're just nodes. I wish we could play already! Also they cant bring down HRC 'cos of special NDA info can they? (･-･｡) Sorry I worry too much.

Reading everyone's tropes is so fun~ Eva was right in saying this is time consuming, oatmeal is now cold. Shrinking Violet Girl Friday The Confidant Forgetful Jones

Welcome 4wheel~ Out of curiosity what server did you play on RO?

The game can't come soon enough. (•‿•) I will say hi for sure! Also I really like reading everyone's wiki pages, a lot of cool stories in Balmung so it's super tempting. And thanks again Rock!

Yes I agree 100%. I lurked for a while before posting and even when these guys disagree they are level headed and civil. I think if I had this crowd in past MMOs I would have had much better experiences. Yes I think you're right! I just feel really bad when people whisper or mail me asking if I'm ignoring them. ;p O-Okay! I can't wait to play either! It's been a long time since I've been this excited about anything really. Also I dunno what that says about me as a person. (。。; )

Welcome Asheon~ Don't feel old! Almost every good MMO community experience I've had has come with more mature players. Sometimes I feel like some jokes or references are over my head but that can happen with more than I want to admit.
