but i would like to at least try all of the classes and decide which class to make my main based on that experience.

I'd limit myself to a couple of classes but last time I tried a tank I felt like I didn't have enough fire power.(And I wasted time)

That's exactly what happens to me whenever I try to branch out into other roles. Tanks start to frustrate me with their lack of fire power, healing is just not for me, ranger type classes don't look flashy enough, it feels unsatisfying to have pets/summons do the work for me, and I've always just flat out sucked at assassin type classes .

Inevitably, I always find myself gladly coming back to the glass cannon.

If not, i'll reroll a sorc for ez-mode.

If you think rolling a clothie and staying alive long enough to nuke somone is ez-mode i think you are sadly mistaken. Anyone can put on armor and swing at stuff till its dead. xD Not that rolling a gladiator isnt one of my top 3 choices or anything.

Sorcs are ez-mode only if you dont die. lol.

I think a sorcerer must have the power of magic and not the power of elements, i mean, let the elemental power to spirit master and give a sorcerer the power magic wich allow to slow the targhet, do transform enemy into something else, to create illusions, and of course give damage. I think a mage should do damage, but also have some tricky spells for evading, teleport, protect himself, ect...

A real mage with the power of magic should do almost everything

You can teleport, summon gates, de-buff, put the target to sleep and you have Dot's. What do you want more lol :P

As of the lastest CBT3 patch the mage seems to get an array of new spells too!

Regarding the stigma system well i think it would be a bad idea to equip a sorc with heavy armor mainly because that kind of armor tends to buff physical attacks hp etc... instead i would u the stigma system to increase things like spell ranges, Magic Dmg, Physical/Elemental resistance, Casting time etc..

We are kinda forced to get quick casting at some point, or else, all other melee classes should not have attack speed buffs, we simply couldn't land a move if it gets canceled by getting hit too often.

I am pretty sure you have never played l2 if you think that.I have played l2 for 3 years and dagger...or you call it rogue so I think you only played it till lvl 20 or something if you even played at all is probably one of the most skilled based classes in lineage 2.It was never an f1 f2 f3 class.There is a huge difference between a skilled dagger and a dagger who just spams skills.The only f1 class in l2 is an archer, only a small difference between a good archer player and a crap archer player.Please dont talk out of your *** next time...

Well back on topic, l2 nuker did requre skilll in certain situations but in end game it was more of a just spam f1 then your main nuke loads.End game as in full buffs as in l2 you can kill your opponent very quickly...end game nuker= 1/2/3 hits on most classes.Seeing from the PvP movies though sorc wont be like this in aion I think and will require a bit more thinking.Hope its as fun as l2 PvP.

That not past level 20 comment goes likewise to you as well.

just hope those flashy moves won't "stick" your mage to the ground. it would be nasty in PvP to just sit and watch the flashy moves ( talking about instant spells ).

Yea mages do tend to get nerfed alot. Throughout the game I am sure each class is gonna get hit with something they are not going to like, more so than others. Just got to work with what you got.

Wow good one mate, hurt my feelings.

[Raezor]

Sorcerers were not the target of nerfing or boosting since CBT3, Spiritmasters were.

I doubt we have to worry too much about getting nerfed for a while.

I want more combos The chains are 2 with 2 skills each for now I think. More and longer combos will make it more unique and interesting to play A chain should contain more than 2 spells, 3 or 4 would be better, while the casting effects and dmg are increasing dream on...
