Hello everyone, my name is Hurs, and today I am going to be talking about my opinion on the controversial topic involving the Warrior's viability as a class.
KEEP IN MIND, I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT ATTRIBUTES
So, as many of you started off your Pocket Legends journey, you probably were taken to the Character Creation screen. You laughed and giggled at the possibilities for each character, remarking on how awesome each of them was. Knowing most of you, you decided to go with the Archer at this point. But, if you decided to live on the edge... you probably went with the Enchantress. This leaves us with only one poor class left, the Warrior (AKA Da Bear-Bear).
You are now part of a select group of awesomesauce individuals that like to be different (assuming you chose Da Bear-Bear). Images of intense heroic acts being performed by your character flowed through your mind as you asked yourself questions such as "How I get past level 13?" (Ok, that was a cheap shot) and "What type of build do I want to use and which weapon will accompany it?" Unfortunately, as the levels went by, you realized that you really weren't all that great at damaging monsters. Sure, your Vengeance Slash worked fine on those level 1 zombies, but now that you are fighting knights, you just aren't up to par. Just as you are about to give up on your poor Bear-Bear, a 2-Handed weapon drops! And it is given to an Archer.
But that is not the point! The point is, is that as many people level up their Bear-Bear, they get discouraged to the point of leaving the class. I managed to stick it out to the end and I am really having fun with my Bear-Bear. Keep in mind that this is from the point of view of a tank that knows his job... to take damage. I have never used a 2H, and probably never will, but I highly recommend switching to sword/board for a little while to see if you enjoy the class more.
