MadDemon – 7/10. I like the last name, but something about names with ‘oth’ in them I’ve never liked for some reason.

Mine is Hiafax Tyrant – Charr Blood Legion Warrior.

Eh, I’ll give it a 5. Its an alright name on its own, sounds alright, but its not very Charr-like. First name fits well enough though I can’t really put my finger on how to pronounce it. The last, though… Charr last names are 2-word combinations, one for the warband and one usually a description of the individual in some way, so that last name doesn’t fit at all. If it were a title (EG Hiafax the Tyrant) then it would fit, but as it is not so much.

I’ve got 2 Charr characters, so I guess I’ll put ’em in the same post.

First one is Geirikk. My first character in the game period so I didn’t even think to look up the “proper” naming conventions, just picked something that sounded good and went with it. I’ve kind of RP’d it off as a situation where he was formerly Flame Legion (conveniently I happened to pick the Flame Legion sire background), and when he left Flame Legion he chose to ditch the surname because of what it represented. And his Legionaire in Blood Legion didn’t think a former flame legion deserved to adopt the name of the warband, so he never took a new one. Really, though, I’d love to get a proper surname on there and will if they ever introduce a name change system (unless its too expensive to be worth it).

Second is Cazza Gearburst of Iron Legion. Proper Charr name this time. Gear warband (no relation to the ones with the same warband name earlier in the thread, though I’ve actually seen at least 1 other Gear* named Charr in-game so it’d be funny to get them all together and form an RP guild), not the most creative of warband names but fits an Iron warband well enough, with the warband being all about creating and using machinery / gear (hence also her being an Engineer). Burst because she’s quick and has a preference for explosions.

I will play :-)
Sorry if I am harsh

Geirikk 4/10 – I do like the name but it isn’t a very “Charr” like name.
Cazza Gearburst 9/10 – My Imagination has me thinking you run around with exploding gears and just chuck them at things like Frisbees that explode into fiery balls of death. :-)

Mine is:
Daxil Embershot – He is a proud member and Engineer for the Iron Legion. I would tell you his order but then I would have to kill you. :-) Moving on….He gets his surname based on the fact that he impressed his warband by using his flamethrower to reduces his enemies to nothing but embers on the battlefield.

I play a necro and I still have a long ways to go till I can even say I’ve “mastered” the class. With that said however, I can destroy any class 1v1 as well as hold my own 1v2 or even 1v3 if the other players are newer to PvP or arent experienced with their profession.

The Necro is far from weak in PvP and can be built for a variety of playstyles. The class just requires multiple skill use as well as good positioning.

Agree, I don’t know why ppl are downplaying the necro, it’s tougher to kill then my warrior. Huge health pools, great regen options, multiple CCs , excellent escapability and best condition DMg in the game.

Yea they’re great on paper but fall behind in practice. They especially lose all their damage when they go toughness, and can’t put up enough bleeds to compete with engi in that same situation.

What? Engi’s have almost no bleeds. I play both Necro and Engi and my necro can easily stack up to 20 bleeds, while my engi struggles to get above 5.

Engi’s burn, not bleed.

Anyway, Necro is pretty solid counter to both Warrior and thief. Well of Darkness is almost an auto-win vs bad ones.

If your a Engi your pistol shot causes a 2 second bleed on auto attack. You burn on critical if you took that talent. But you still cause constant bleeds. Your stacks won’t be super high based off auto attack alone but its still a bleed and its basically free.
