LOL

I'm sure there will be a flood of all 3 next wednesday..

I call puppetmasster, been waiting since it was shown.

Eternus · **Posted:** Wed Apr 12, 2006 9:32 am

Yeah like I said. COR will hurt BRD party invites. I bet COR will level fast too.. no telling how cheap/expensive the gear will be though.

Dmitry · **Posted:** Wed Apr 12, 2006 10:14 am

I might do corsair since I kind of like the artifact armor...

Sirfalas · **Posted:** Wed Apr 12, 2006 2:20 pm

I figure there will be alot of Corsair's in the 30's. Noobs from 360 who know nothing about the game will play it after they see the AF armor, then realize it's a support class and give it up. I might try it out. I was actually thinking of picking up bard to get a quick 75 #2, but this might be a more handsome alternative. gotta wait 2 weeks though. til then all you'll see is a Valkurm full of the new jobs.

I bet if you get 4 BLU a COR and a PUP, you can make it through valkurm.

If corsair 2hour allows party to reuse 2hours, that's gonna be fucking insane. Now to wonder if they worked it out so 2 corsairs in a party can't just bounce this back and forth.

I seriously doubt SE would let a loophole like that happen.

Although, it would be funny to see that. Berserk 5/5min, utsu ni always up, infinite soul eater.

Here is some of the new weapons if you didn't see them on the thread on BG.

Blech, I thought that axe might've looked cooler but now I'm not so sure.

Damn jim, now like half the server is gonna get pressured into leveling Corsair. . . thanks. lol.

I'm levelling up corsair because I want to lol

Jimbean · **Posted:** Thu Apr 13, 2006 2:54 pm

everyone's going to want corsair for their nifty buffs anyway

Eternus · **Posted:** Thu Apr 13, 2006 4:07 pm

BLU looks pretty damn hot too. Well the sword they have is nice and their abilities are badass. Supposedly they will have different builds like for tanking, DD, healing etc. Seeing a BLU tank and another DD and another main heal would be hilarious. Puppetmaster might be ok as well, just really weird. Corsair will take pts away from BRDs that are xping to 75. Not sure how their role in end game will be, but their buffs will stack with BRD.
