Class, Role and Alliance POLL

Post » Fri Feb 14, 2014 8:12 am

We've seen these in the past. I've not seen any recently though. Curious if the posters on the forum are evening out yet, or what's changing.

Either way - POST your votes and comment if you like!

I liked being a priest most of all in wow, so my main char (pve, guild, raids), will be an elven templar.

my second is gonna be a kahjit shield&sword, because in pvp more than else i prefer to be the dumb grunt up front, and i like the kajit armor style.

Sort of true to the lore, that puts me in the aldmeri dominion.

I do believe that nightblade & sorcerer are fun too from what i've seen in the beta, but i wont get to that in my first year as TESO addict

Nightblade healer. I like casters and prefer damage over time spells to nukes. Siphoning line works well for this. I will also be delving into shadow for the escape option (invis) and stun option (veil strike).

Staying with Ebonheart, although I really like Daggerfall. I cannot leave my Argonian buddies behind though.

Hope more tanks show up to the raid! Heck I may switch from heals to tank if Templar is a viable tank (which I'm sure it would be).

I loved playing a priest in WoW. Not to sold on the Templar class, probably going to play a resto-staff sorcerer (Dunmer, of course :) )

Imperial nightblade stealth archer of the Ebonheart Pact. If you suddenly drop dead, it was probably me. If you're an altmer, you will most definitely drop dead.

I'd like to vote, but I can't agree with this comment... "Long live the Nords"

Have to laugh. In so many MMOs people seem to feel like there should be a "tank", but it always seems the least popular choice. Kinda the easy party person option ;)

It doesn't help that they usually force the tank role onto a single class. I knew plenty of wanna-be tank bear druids and shamans in WoW. Even Paladins were lulzy against non-AoE spam fights.

Zen really made the right decision here in not forcing certain classes into roles. Sure, DK has some good tanking perks, but I have no doubt that any class will be able to tank effectively if built for it.

Also, it appears Zen has done their research well. Out of the ~2k replies so far on TESO Census, there is damn near a perfect split of 25/25/50 split of tank, healer, damage. Perhaps it was on accident, but that matches the group size of 4 perfectly.

I'm not too sure what class I will be, to be honest I was flat out confused by the levelling choices.

Playing as a Dunmer sorcerer myself, and I will be sticking with the Ebonheart Pact so I can remain in my homeland...

Also what I'm leaning towards at this point.

Still might go Templar though. I think I'd need to try it out to be sure.

True dat. They all get a few tanky abilities.

Sorcerers get a + armor and damage shield.

Nightblades get a + miss chance and - damage to enemies. Plus their health siphons.

Templars get a + armor and damage shield. Plus their heals.

DK Tank, cannot wait to stand toe to toe with the bigfoot/rancor looking creature and any other large bosses!

Still up in the air.

There are a lot of possibilities that its hard to determine what your main class choice can actually be.

So Im guessing, most of us will make as many sets of every class we can & spec them out differenty to find what suits us best in their own fashion.

Not a well thought out poll, as I play to suit myself and I play solo. This is the perfect game for solo players because there is no point whatsoever to grouping anyway, since even if the entire group is on the same stage of the same quest, objectives aren't shared. Why join a group when your quest would just take longer as a result?
