People still have a stance on this?

I haven't voted due to ignorance.

I am amazed at how much more popular Warrior Priest is over Disciple of Khaine.

Probably aesthetics. Emo goth healer warrior vrs basdass bald dude in killer armor. Similar disparity between Shaman and Archmage.

I saw a ton of DoKs over the weekend though, I think they will be popular in general.

The good news is that you're still alive. The bad news is that that's the good news. Also, you have no legs.

Looking over the poll makes me realize the quality job Mythic has done with these classes in both concept and execution, although the latter has the standard mmo flaws. Only the Witch Elf, Magus and White Lion are abnormally low in comparison to the rest of the poll and that is due to bugged pathing, poor balance and who knows with the Witch Elf (I saw tons, personally). While the class gimmicks aren't for me, there are standard classes for me to enjoy. Similarly, there are 7 (?) unique mechanics for people to enjoy if that's their preference.

This isn't just a compliment in terms of planning and execution, but also management. Rolling an alt in this game will be much more entertaining than in any other mmo because they've created different play styles with different mechanics. The game is going to be shallow at level cap. If you can't pvp endlessly in the same settings you're going to be inclined to look elsewhere, but due to the variety of classes Mythic has given itself an unknown amount more leeway to finish their game. And let's face it, no matter how many scenarios or keeps there are there is no avoiding a favored area where people will centralize. That much is obvious from the beta, as people flocked to the Imperial scenario and pvp towns over their own and that is despite the Dwarf and Greenskin area being 'fucking awesome'.

Squig Herder is definitely for me Destruction side if the pathing is going to be fixed. Goblins are the only appealing race to me in that faction, which is odd as I liked my orc and Tauren in WoW, and I don't like the Nuke/Heal mechanic honestly.

Going dwarf engineer. Can't get enough of dwarves with guns.

Plus I played a shooty as hell dwarf army in the tabletop version.

Might alt it with a runepriest or ironbreaker.

I only played a DoK to 6 but he seemed very similar to my WP. Is the differentiation all that great as you level up?

I was under the impression they were 'sister' classes but I know that sister /= mirror.

DoK is more offensive while WP is more defensive. As you level up the differences become more apparent. Espcially in the masteries.

150 Ft range snipe is going to be very useful.

Chosen if Chaos or a Bright Wizard if Order. And yes I know the "correct" term is destruction but I like to say Chaos more... since it is the opposite of Order where as Destruction isn't so much. Plus the Chaos Gods are just the shit... *grins*

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!

As it stands now a group made up of the top 6 from each side would be:

Ironbreaker
Witch Hunter
Runepriest
Warrior Priest
Bright Wizard
Engineer

Vrs

Chosen
Shaman
Black Orc
Sorcerer
Zealot
Squig Herder

That Order group sounds terrible to me. And the Destruction one doesn't have Marauder or DOK?
