Yes, i used the Search button but i dont find the News i wanted Very Happy

I want to start a new Character but i dont know if i should take a Werefox or a Human Mage.

1) I want wo be good in a Party, but level also fast if i play solo.
- I heard that the most groups dont take Werefoxes, but i dunno why (whats bader than a Mage?)... I play with a friend but we often play alone so i need a Char who can both...

2) I heard that there are also Mage Swords... Can i fight with them too or only cast? I also want to attack them offensive =)

3) I need also a Char who is good in PvP, i love PvP =)

Hope someone can help me with my decide Dancing

None of them are good with melee attack, the magic swords are jut magic weapons that look like swords. Which one is best in PvP? None, it depends on the player and build. Werefoxes are great soloers, because their pets can tank. Mages are nice soloers after a certain lvl, at lower lvls you will need to kite a lot to survive. Mages are great for parties because of their AoEs. AoEs help to kill a lot of monsters at once, and their AoEs are amazing. Werefoxes don't have any "great" AoE (I'm not sure if they have one).

Classes are very balanced, play the one you think you will have more fun with.


Thanks for the sig Nimriel!

And at which Level are they good for solo? 20? 30? 40?

I play the Character i will have more fun, but this changes usually after many Levels because of the skills...

Now I tried Priest, Werefox, Werebeast until Level 10, but i think that is not enough to know how i can play them in high levels...

Werefox at example are funny, but many people say that i have Problems to find a Party in high Level and they are bad in PvP - with Level 10 i dont know such things... Sick

PS: I play this Character in low Level most with a Priest... So i dont have to Kite, isnt it?

I'd suggesting trying all the classes until at least 20, if not 30. Although 20+ you really do get a sense of how the class plays, since you'll be around Dragon City, and the mobs are the same.

WF is a easy to solo class, but not wanted in parties. The only thing you can do is give the reflect damage buff, and lure single mobs. High level parties (afaik) like to AoE grind sometimes, and I heard WF just isn't good at that. So you won't be able to level as fast with them. But as a WF, you can solo a lot, and even take on bosses 10-20 levels lower than you. I'm not sure what other classes can do that. And WF (and possibly WB) is the one class that can seriously solo the Sunset Hall / Hall of Dusk.

Mages and Priest who nuke are hard to play. I tried soloing one up to 20, and it was hard, having nuke, run, nuke, run, just not to die. Then heal myself afterwards (in the case of priest).

PvP depends more on skill, and whether it's open PvP or TW. WF aren't as needed as some other classes in TW, but seems good in 1v1 PvP based on the few youtube videos I've seen.

With my mage almost level 30, I can say one thing for sure that mages can solo but combined with a tank you will just own... especially after u hit 26 when you get the water healing spell. I did find warefoxes to be the soloers. If you don't like socializing or playing with others (why would you its only a MMOrpg ^_^ ) then they are for you. Mages I heard are very good for Guilds Vs Guild Battles and their DPS is amazing for dungeons. The only downside is when you get hit and it hurts. You will eat through health pots like no other. If you manage to get it to higher lvls you will find it very satisfying. I havn't played a warefox so I'm just going by what I see. With their soloing I'm guessing they are faster to lvl but I don't know if they are any good in PvP because in PvP the player would ingore the pet and go straight for the kill on the warefox. In the end its up to your style.


Like playing with others go for mage
Life playing by yourself then go for warefox

No need to compare the two, werefox is the unique class this game has, so it has to be it. In any FB/Boss mission, you are always needed. Money wise, richest character in-game. Lvling wise, faster than any other class in the game before lvl 60. Our guild top ppl, half of them are werefoxes, lvl 70 already -.-... & Rich if i need to mention to you.
Mages, great nukers, not worth the trouble of first 60 levels.

if your looking for a money maker then go WF, they tamed rare pets ang sell them in a high price,,, a mage is a great damager that makes them the most wanted in PVP and TW.. in soloing mages level below 60 having a hard time but in 70 above levels you can now live by your self as a mage.. oh forgot to tell that depends on your item.. and skill levels,, am a mage level 70 plus,, and i can go soloing. mage is much needed in dungeon party as a damager or even tanker for a magic type bosses..

Werefoxes are wanted when they get to higher levels (80+). They have several attacks that do area damage, the first is that insect swarm skill. It does area damage and poisons. After lvl 60+, they are also very useful in that Hall of Dusk or whatever the English version of the name is since they can lure monsters individually from packs. However, for the most part, they are soloers since they do not have a continuous AOE skill. As for the claim of easily being the richest class, I do not agree with that statement. Rare pets are just that... rare. Most have 12h+ spawn times and most of the time, the spawn areas are camped heavily. Normal pets gives you nothing and you'd rather have the extra slot space to store other drops. The only thing they save heavily on is potions. The fox skill that allows you to suck blood paired with the skill to switch MP<>HP ensures you have an almost infinite amount of HP/MP as long as there's a monster around.

As for OP's original char requirements, it is extremely hard to be a good soloer, party member, and PvPer all at the same time. Stat points are allocated slightly differently and you may choose to use different gear (armor) depending on your focus. Skill sets are also a problem but can be circumvented if you decide to do it the slow way and just die a lot so you can get the SP and not gain levels.

1.) If you want solo play... Werefox
2.) Mage Swords... prolly are mystic swords. And are used the same way as Wands, Flags & Wheels.
3.) Werefox is good at solo. Debuff... debuff... debuff... d'oh!
Mage is excellent with party. Really deals a lot of Elemental AOE damage.
