LodestarEris 6 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Hi, I'm Eris and I tag along where CheshireVee goes. This game seems really interesting, I like the idea of having my own little kingdom. I know right now the game is light on healers, but hopefully that changes! Healing is usually my gig in games. EDM, courant101, Phadra and 1 other 4 Link to post Share on other sites
EDM 1,055 Share Posted April 4, 2016 That probably won't change but playing a support class will still be pretty fun. Hope you enjoy your time here! courant101 1 Chalcitis - A Treasure Hunting Guild, visit Forum Post Link to post Share on other sites

CheshireVee 70 Share Posted April 4, 2016 ;D I understand the need for keeping healing sparse in a PvP focused MMO. In PvE, healers are great because the PCs aren't -supposed- to lose, just be challenged. In PvP, healers aren't so great for the playability of the game since somebody -has- to lose and a good set of healers on both sides of a conflict can completely stop that from happening, resulting in a stalemate in many cases, which isn't all that great an outcome in PvP. At the same time, healers still have their place in PvP. Many PvP focused games across genres have at least one healer type to play as, like the medic in Team Fortress 2 lol courant101 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Keaggan 1,480 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Welcome to CF! This being in super early pre-Alpha it may look like the game it is light on one thing or another so I'd recommend checking out the http://crowfall.com/en/archetypes/ section to see some of the other support archetypes coming as the build the game. I personally can't wait for the Druid and Frost Weaver to be made Urahara and courant101 2 **JOIN Crowfall Discord** Link to post Share on other sites
LodestarEris 6 Author Share Posted April 5, 2016 Thanks for the welcome, everyone! I'm pretty excited for Druids and Frostweavers too, those will probably be my preferred archetypes. courant101 1 Link to post Share on other sites
courant101 5,755 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I've read somewhere that the Druid will have some interesting healing powers and it's (one of) the next archetypes to get implemented. That hasn't been confirmed by the devs as far as I know, but I think that there's a good chance this information is accurate. Link to post Share on other sites
khaer 34 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Welcome! The druid info does look interesting. I like the dichotomy between healing and nuking, it forces a little more of a risk/reward to the healing and support role that I think changes things from the typical paradigm presented for this role.

Hobs 143 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Welcome to the forums. Hopefully once all the archetypes are out, we'll all find at least one that tickles our fancy. Link to post Share on other sites
