2005 Players' Choice Awards

[AshNC]

In honor of our one-year anniversary, we opened up a competition of sorts, where players nominated, and then voted on their favorite aspects of Lineage II. Anyone could nominate for a 48-hour period. Then the top 4 nominees were included in a final round of voting for one week. The results were counted, and here we have it.

Hopefully this will give some food for thought, and also be helpful for new players who want to learn more about Lineage II.

ehemmm, you forgot Shillien Elder :(

[GoldenDog]

It'd be nice to see an updated list like this. Class favoritism changes. IMO... never pick a class based upon these things. Close you eyes... use you imagination... and play that. You wont REROLL.

[subversion]

SE won for most under apreciated. In that spirit, the listed has been witheld.

[Shikon]

Yes personally I think SE should be top in buffer spot, I think thats all ive seen buff in the past few days ive been playing (server- Gustin)

[Shikon]

BTW nice avatar, I love that movie lol ^.^ even though effects are kinda bad

SE is good at many things, but not THE BEST at any one single task. Since the players' choice awards were about the best class for a single task (e.g. healing, buffing, etc.), it's easy to understand why the SE does not show up anywhere. We are not specialists, but that's also why it is so easy for us to get a group.

[Its_InTheGame]

In that you forgot Fav Character to play ,,, but obvious the winner would be a Necromancer for anchor etc, shame ive never made 1 before tho, things shall change this pts haha

I really don't see how Kat the Cat got Favorite Pet/Summon, that thing is SOO annoying. Reow!! Scritchy scratchy scritchy scratchy REOW scratchy scritchy scratchy purrr..purrr.purrr... REOWWW!! Ahhh make it stop. The again the corrupted man really gets annoying too, he sounds like he needs to see a doctor.

About SE, yeah they are the best all-around buffer/healer class, but they aren't the best at anything. Overall though, since they're the only class that gets vamp rage (unless you consider high level BDs) they are the most desirable. Not to mention empower is just the best buff for mages. Have everyone get some greater swift attack or alacrity pots and there's almost no need for a prophet in the party.

WC get VR as well. Same lvls even but WC get them at later lvls. You need more than alacrity or GSA pots to make up for a prophet, prophet have all the great buffs like berserker and such. And for PvP buffing NO ONE outdos a prophet. SE, however, can easily be replaced if its not a mage party. Prophets+EE best for archer parties and small parties, WC+Bishop are the best for normal XP groups, SE......only the best in anything in mage groups otherwise EE or Bishop are better. Its possible for a SE to buff/heal but it won't be no where nearly as effective as WC+Bishop seeing as WC can double as DDs and Bishops can tear up undead and sleep everything. And EE+Prophet awesome in archer parties or small parties.

But then again with the correct setup you can hunt without a healer at all.

Its true that WC gets buffs later than a proph or SE gets the same buffs. However I believe that for PvE a high lvl WC is better than all. Its true that we don't have emp, but acumen is still a very needed buff in mage parties. In PvP if it was balanced... reflect damage would more than be a good trade for prophets other buffs, however with 50-60% of the player base mages mental aegis is a must and chant of victory compared to the proph 78 skill makes the prophet look like a toy.

[KnightOfDarkness]

a group with a bishop a SE and a WC included have the highest ownage rate.
