I’m looking for a class that …

Post#1 » Mon Jul 29, 2024 8:09 pm

Hi all, i used to play on live and i played different classes but never beyond tier 1.
That said i’m looking for a class that with some skill of course, can kill all the others in 1v1 or at least not dying.
I’m sorry If this is a silly question and no intend to offend anyone; i would like to see big Numbers of damage and kill fast. That’s it.
No Matter If order or destruction. Today i started for the first time a white lion.

Ironbreaker with a shield and a one handed weapon is your class.

The 1v1 meta is mostly about sustain rather than going glass cannon. Glass cannon specs are really for group play as you need the protection of a tank and the heals from a healer to stay alive.

Little 1vs1 tier list with the most important classes:

S+: Dps Archmage / Shaman
S: Chosen, Def Witch Elf
A: Def Magus

You can also make other tank classes work (maybe with exception of KOTBS) as well as White Lion and Squigherder, but they require more effort und certainly high end gear.

If you just want to stomp the majority of enemies 1vs1 without the need of super specialized gear you pick AM or Shaman. The first has a little more kill pressure due to having one more dot, therefore the latter has a run tactic that makes it easier to kite out multiple enemies.

Look in the direction of Destruction ( Shaman, Magus). Ranged, magic( no need for weapon skill gimping your stats). One has lots of burst and can be tanky (magus) the other can kite 2-3 people and dot everything up ( easy mode shaman).

Definitely do not play Wl since the pet AI is bananas broken and the associated pet tactic has been stealth nerfed or suffers from a bug itself making the pet run slow(speed training). If order go with the AM, the problem is you'll get pull abused by maras and jumped by goblin teams, SH+ shaman jumps you ( both faster than AM) and be ready to press the release button.

If you want to duel people in Arena style 1vs1 without potions, play SnB IB.

The solo scene in RoR consists, as mentioned before, of classes that can sustain a lot of dmg. May it be through self heal, dmg mitigation, or excessiv kiting.

The above mentioned classes by Tyrodan and jafh123 definitely fit your criteria.
S+: Dps Archmage / Shaman
S: Chosen, Def Witch Elf, SnB IB
A: Def Magus
(S+, S, A describe the meta options for solo roaming. S+ pretty much excels over all other classes because ov viability in solo environments. decending to S and A.)

The question is what playstyle do you prefere?
Kiting, Melee, do you want stealth?

Important to mention would also be, that the 1v1 scene in this game is overwhelmingly very good geared up to BiS roamers on both side that have min maxed their toons to the limit. So the entry barrier into 1v1s is quite high. The lower your gear, the more important macro gameplay is. Because if you get caught overextended you won't make it back alive to safety.

I personally prefere classes, that have a lot of passive tankyness build into their kit. Lot's of Block, Parry, Disrupt, Dodge. Ability procs, that raise these stats even further. So my top choice for said content would be Chosen. back on live servers i used to also play solo DPS Shaman and Magus. Very fun, very slippery and very frustrating to play against. :P
But there are also masochists that solo roam on choppa, slayer, sorc and bright wizard. If your "with some skill of course" is true you can do A LOT.

Lastly if you never want to die, pick Shaman, WE or WH. (Maybe SH as well, if you manage to jump in the right direction :P)

Tankyou very much, my playstyle is to be “ in your face and beating you up “ I like to go directly in the face of enemy and punish him with no mercy. Stay there and take the punishment until HE GOES DOWN. If has to be chosen ok , i like the idea not to concentrate tomuch on buttons.

Sounds to me like you want to play chosen. Least buttons to press. In your face fighting style. If you get bored with doing damage you will find a group in a heartbeat due how powerful chosen are in group play
