so we all had our pre-conceptions, what we would like, what we would play, which faction we favor. but when you got the chance to play the alpha (or are, like me, currently playing it) who did you originally think you were going to like, and which faction? and what do you like now?
so for me i thought id like the samurai the best, and favor the orochi.
but now, i ended up maining a conqueror, which is a knights faction class
The Orochi/Assassin. He is nimble and quick, just the way i always play in any game. People keep screaming he is op, but i have no trouble taking Orochis out with other classes too. Just gotta adapt to him. He is build completely arround counter-attacks, so just raining a flurry of attacks onto him can't work. Interestingly that's how most people seem to play. Run in, attack untill target keels over, repeat.
I kept my level balanced between Kensei, Orochi, and Warden. I thought I'd really like Orochi, but that was actually my least favorite to play of the character types I enjoy, I really liked Warden and Kensei, Warden for the no frills bread and butter fundamentals gameplay, and kensei for the MIXUPS man. I had a lotta fun, and I can't wait to try more characters when I get the full game.
