I really enjoyed the time I got to play this weekend but didn’t get to play as much as I’d have liked.
Reaper – I really really liked it! I loved the way my character shouted, “your soul is mine” on the heals so please do not change that! I giggled every time I heard it. Reaper seemed easier to pick up on to me and my current level 80 necro has been stabled a while but I’m thinking she will make a comeback in HoT.
Dragonhunter – I didn’t care much for this one but it was also the first one I tried so I probably didn’t take as much time on the build as I should have since I was anxious to get to the new stuff. Still, the longbow seemed kind of weak to me. The #5 skill was cool but the others seemed to just get me killed because I wasn’t doing enough damage. I gave that one up pretty quickly. The graphics for the bow was pretty cool though.
Chronomancer – I enjoyed playing this one. Would have been better if I’d had the armor and runes that I would probably put on mine but given the selection we had, it was enjoyable. Really liked the clock graphics on the wells! I would have liked more time on this one but I got stuck on the reaper once I tried it and didn’t want to go back to the others.
Tempest – I feel like it has good potential and I enjoyed the time I played it. I’m sure it would have been a lot better if I was really skilled at putting builds together but sadly I’m not.
I think all of the classes with the right builds and armor (and a little practice) would be great. Since I wasn’t sure about what would be erased after today, I didn’t want to put anything other than what came with the character on them.
The Map – The gliding was awesome! BEST THING EVER! I was jumping up on rocks just to get a little height so I could glide. Yeah, I’m one of those people that jumps as they run as well.
I hope that we can eventually get the gliding to carry over into the older maps after HoT is released. I’d love to jump off some vista on a snowy high peak and soar down to the ground. I know that may be too much to ask though. I hope we can eventually increase our mastery to glide for longer periods of time. I’m not sure if that was on the mastery stuff or not. It was a lot to take in.
I loved all of the different levels in the area we were in and the jungle areas. I can only imagine how much fun it will be when we get the full picture.
The different creatures provided a definite challenge. I’m wondering if some of the events weren’t bugged but it was a case of us not knowing how they worked? I know on one event, we did what was listed under the event but couldn’t damage the vine boss until someone said we had to kill the vine tenders (not sure if that is what they were called) at the same time before we could damage the boss. I had a lot of fun on that one!
Overall, I really enjoyed the time I was able to play and I look forward to the surprises that await us in HoT. I was concerned about my purchase initially but now I feel I will definitely get my money’s worth in the end. My only regret is that I didn’t find that Wyvern fight that someone mentioned in a prior post.
