I'm not contesting this since I'm a new player and don't know any better, but that seems absurd. What is even the point of speccing into speed/mobility & light armor then? I keep running into statements that bolster the notion of "be a warrior or go home". Does this game ultimately boil down to heavy foot fighters winning?
Nope. I can atest to this as an MO1 player. That was SORT of the case in MO1 but remember this is ultimately skill based game. Remember not everything is implemented in game yet as the main reason for the latest patches are to
1. Open the word with all the cities and dungeons (more to come).
2. To see how many of us can play in the server at once.
I mean even some Clade gifts aren't named.
Anyways... Each race still has their unique stuff and your build doesn't exactly have to be meta to succeed always. It's beneficial but if you play smart you can do your build right and use your skills to do well, you can get good but it will be hard mode for awhile.
The thing is .. there's some ways to gimp your character that won't make sense at all. Like you wouldn't roll a mage with one hotpoint etc.
It's all about thinking what kind of opponent you may have. Not everyone can be the best at everything. So you have to compromise. It's almost like a game of chess and paper, rock, scissors. I PMed him and he told me the build is doable but not the way I was thinking.
Also I found out that two handed spear extends your stab distance and that alone helped me in battle. Also I was a dumb shit and forgot to get bandages so I've been doing better but not quite good. I still need practice as it's been awhile
