Support Chanter/Battle Chanter

[Kaey]

That would be crazy sweet too (: But if they only have to click a button every (insert seconds, or minutes here) they might get bored if theres not much healing to do.

But none the less - that would be sweet (:

Battle Chanter .
I don't want to be dragged around like a slave, for buffs and such, and I want to be able to fight on my own .
I will bow down to NO Daeva, and I will show everyone what a chanter can really do . (:

I guess that speed aura the Chanter got really made me think of that.

i played it ..great game

hmm im not sure if the chanters its like a minstrel, actually, i dont think so ...., i mean, the chanter can "heal" (not very good, but heal anyway xD), the minstrel only had a heal song D:


maybe thats the big diff xD, the rest its like a minstrel ^^u

I plan to use all the stigmas I can for increasing my DPS, and then complain when I can't out-dps an assassin.

In all seriousness, I like the idea of specializing in whichever tends to keep a group alive. I'm hoping for a bit of AoE for the class, even if it's minimal, (Say, 30% as effective as the most effective AoE), because as situational as AoE's are for healing classes, those situations have always been my favorite. Failing the AoE, I love all types of highly situational abilities, which is why I'm considering the class as much as I am. But I digress as I reminisce... won't bore you with stories of my past, here. I'll wait until you're tied down in a chair.

I guess it depends how the class turns out. I'd like to think I'd mix it up a bit - maybe get a bit more up close and personal with a solo build, but drop back to a more supporting role when playing in a group. But then it depends how it plays; if it turns out that supporting is dull and not very 'interactive', then I'll definitely get more aggressive!

If it's possible to be a jack-of-all-trades and make it work well though, then that's the role I'll be playing. I love the idea of being to do a bit of everything!

i originally voted battle chanter but i actually think i might go support chanter with stigmas towards my nukes so i am a support class with support DPS and disables. the big issue will be in mass PVP chanters will buff and any dps will most likely not be melee as it appears they will be a cloth armour class so they far to squishy. In 1v1 pvp hope that your enemy doesnt have buffs and you should be on a decently even playing field. the chanters buffs make up for a lack of natural ability given to the other classes. this is the one class that will actually come down to the human skill in combat. If i can debuff/damage my enemy enough before they get to me that my dps will be enough to win then its all good. the onyl problem here will be mages and rangers but in this case your disables and defensive buffs should give you a fighting chance. I am very interested to see how people play the in game

Support Chanter:

because in other games, I played only supportcharacters and I like to help ppl instead of fighting them :<

[Xanti2]

As much as i'd love to support other players, i also want to be able to be useful to my self too. I want to be strong enough to last a long time in battles and still have really good buffs to support me and others players.

Chanters don't really have nukes or magic attacks, their skills are very much physical and melee based with attatched debuffs to nearly every attack skill, therefore making me battle chanter.
I enchant my gears with increased weapon block / parry to go with the parry buff, HP because of the fairly low HP pool and weapon attack. For PvP situations I'd whip out the shield to have further blocks to reduce physical damage to scratches and PvE I'd pick the staff for faster slaying.
I'd usually wear chainmail for the best defence, but I'll keep a set of magic resisting robes to live through sorcerer's nukes and chase them as they run in terror when their mana has been all but spent up.

Probably end-game buffs/skills would be obtained through high level stigma stones. So I'll be going for the end-game group buffs rather than personal skills.
