I always recommend new players choose Rogue. Especially if they are going to play solo most of the time. To get the most out of the game (levelling to 80) you definitely want DPS. Rogue can pretty much attack at any distance and then get out of the way when they need to. They also exclusively get thievery skill. When you don't have VIP its good to be able to deal with traps.
As a Fighter since Mod 1 I would say that he became a very boring class that is getting out damage by most of the classes as he has big Cooldowns and slow attacks,yeah they deal damage but it's not fun anymore as he used to be.I highly reccomend an HR (most fun class for me by far in this game as he has different play styles and will keep your interest for a long time).
Whenever i used to Start a new mmorpg i always gravitated towards the tank role only to get burned out because leveling them alone takes ages, now im playing a Warlock and see which speaks to me more
New players should understand one thing: Cryptic WILL and always does mess with your characters every few mods. If you're good now you won't be a few mods from now and vice versa. Rogue is the only one they never touched except giving it an extra move so it's like playing a toon built for an earlier version of the game which sucks cause it's my main). TR doesn't even have the trap skill like in Nerwinter Nights they did.
havent played this game in 2 years, but i was a hunter orc. IMO, it class really excelled at being a great crowd control. Vine trapping and then switching to melee to cut them down was my role. Keeping the minions off of the support by trapping and cutting them down and then helping with dps on the bosses was my usual role. I liked playing because it kept me involved with multiple tasks and responsibilities. instead of just face tanking, or damage pumping or healing. if timed properly there was a passive that allowed faster cooldowns when stance switching and you can swap between range and melee and control enemy movement and never really have to wait because of cooldown.
From actual D&D, we are missing 2 classes: Monk and Bard. I would really love to have a monk character that can stance switch from fists to something like a bo staff.
As you can see from the comments, people tend to pick whatever class is OP at the time but this is a bad idea. Cryptic are constantly nerfing and buffing the classes. The only class that has consistently been weak compared to the others is the Control Wizard and it's because it doesn't have a role to play in this game. It relies on chill/arcane stacks for it's dps and it cant get them due to the speed at which the other classes take down the mobs. If it lived up to it's name and could actually control bosses/all mobs then it would have a role. They took the word 'control' out for a reason. I play the Wizard despite this because I like the way the class plays. Pick the class you enjoy playing not the OP class of the time as sooner or later...that nerf hammer will come.
Hmm I'm making a new character aswell but idk what to choose. HR, TR Or Barb. They're all fun and can dish out extreme amounts of damage but idk what to choose i'm so torn
Would not recommend wizards they have been nerfed for like 4 moda straight and are second lowest dps atm. Thaumaturge is so bad it’s not usable in endgame content. Whilst Arcanist is okay, it’s still very buggy and lacks dps compared to other classes.
I know what you mean about the barbarian tank. I got all the way to about 23000 item level with mine, just as a tank (no DPS load-out). Painful. Started to realise there is only one build to get even close to holding the agro. This was not the build I enjoyed at all. Gave up on the tank and turned him into a DPS. So much better now.
It's going to be a long time before you get to end game status. Going all free mode is worse than watching grass grow. Love your content and good luck.
I'm relatively new but I actually enjoy seeing my character grow slowly in power while I go through the legacy campaigns organically. It feels more earned than in games like WoW where I could have spent 0 seconds at max level during the previous patch and be (almost) 100% caught up within 2-3 hours of the next patch going live.
Awesome. Just when I'm moving from cleric to fighter main xD. I just wonder how you'll get the AD for all that legendary/mythic junk we all need for endgame. Looking forward the next episodes with lots of anxiety o.o
This game is more alive than I thought. Haven't played in 4 years. I redownload it on the Xbox and I have a lvl 30 fighter, lvl 13 wizard and lvl 12 ranger. I'm going to play with the ranger for now. Any advice?
Yes. They are the top two dps because of potential not because they are just overpowered. The hinter ranger requires a lot of finesse to play and your reward for basically playing two people's worth of rotations is higher dps output. Cleric is very prep heavy.... I've had to wait for clerics to build stacks so they can burst the second we get into a boss more times than i care for lmao
pls help im very new and i just picked fighter and upped my strength im still on the very first mission i just came on YT to check whats best race or best wepons
What do you need help with? The best race is what you want your character to look like. They don't make a huge difference and only matters once you hit high endgame
the next episode will be pretty close to just following me doing the starting quests. And then from there I think I'll just do more like progression updates, what I've got and where.
its when you do another action and it cancels the animation of what you were doing and allows you to finish that action and continue with the new action
Nice new guide for new player Aragon and Im pretty sure in a few months it will be the best for end game player, and bte wich power can be cancel in figther? The only I knew was heavy slash but was patched a few months ago, thanks and as always nice vid, cheers
I have a level 25 warlock, should I make a new character or should I keep going with a warlock. If I should make a new character which class should it be?
Thank you all for 3k subs
Congrats!
U deserve way more

Well crap, was hoping there was a monk class. Will they ever add that in the future?
I play as Fighter since 2015. Is a very easy class to learn and understand his mechanics for a first-timer
As a Fighter since Mod 1 I would say that he became a very boring class that is getting out damage by most of the classes as he has big Cooldowns and slow attacks,yeah they deal damage but it's not fun anymore as he used to be.I highly reccomend an HR (most fun class for me by far in this game as he has different play styles and will keep your interest for a long time).
The same with paladin when they changed in mod 16 they removed all damage :(
Whenever i used to Start a new mmorpg i always gravitated towards the tank role only to get burned out because leveling them alone takes ages, now im playing a Warlock and see which speaks to me more

I love the wizard so much fun to use. But I really like all of them love this game and your channel thumbs up.
the wizard is kinda weak for me tho, im currently lvl 41 and do almost no dmg
@@senar774 agree
I chose a wood elf ranger it's really op

Dang I'm late I'd have appreciated a race advice on said classes but eh .. can find some other guides as well for that :)
sorry,
@@Aragon- was a great guide anyways, thank you :)
Perfect. A dps to level, then a tank that I want to build. I'm gonna learn a ton.
PM me for invite to TALK TANK.

NEW UPDATE IN NEVERWINTER!!!!
THE BARD CLASS IS FINALLY OUT!!
I recommend it. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
It JUST came out, and I already LOVE IT.
Ate you still playing?
Hmm I'm making a new character aswell but idk what to choose. HR, TR Or Barb. They're all fun and can dish out extreme amounts of damage but idk what to choose i'm so torn
Hmm, that is a tough choice. with a barbarian you'll get the opportunity to tank aswell.

Feels bad... Mainly a barb... But i really love the wizard and i'm ready to switch to wizard if it receives a buff
DeeP MaThs yeah wizard is really fun, they plan on fixing thaumaturge soon but it’ll still leave Arcanist a little behind, better than nothing tho.
i start playing this game cause of u :)

Instead of updating classes I wish they would let us subclass.
I'm relatively new, but I think the Paragon paths are essentially subclasses, are they not ?

Fighter has 2 hard taunts:
[Enforced threat] is aoe hard taunt.
[Anvil of doom] empowered by passive is solo target hard taunt.
Yes! Excited for this series 😃
awesome :D

Just keep leveling up, follow the main gold questline.
Hunter or cleric, two best dps and ironically some of the funnest
Yes. They are the top two dps because of potential not because they are just overpowered. The hinter ranger requires a lot of finesse to play and your reward for basically playing two people's worth of rotations is higher dps output.
Cleric is very prep heavy.... I've had to wait for clerics to build stacks so they can burst the second we get into a boss more times than i care for lmao
Excuse me kind sir, you misspelled rogue and rogue
Fighter is a good choice
Fighting is a good choice
For Tanks...
pls help im very new and i just picked fighter and upped my strength im still on the very first mission i just came on YT to check whats best race or best wepons
What do you need help with?
The best race is what you want your character to look like. They don't make a huge difference and only matters once you hit high endgame
Once a Rogue ..always a Rogue :)
hehe
will you show every quest in playthrough or just bits and pieces of your progress?
the next episode will be pretty close to just following me doing the starting quests. And then from there I think I'll just do more like progression updates, what I've got and where.
Yes stoked on this series 🙏
Please explain "Animation Cancelling?"
its when you do another action and it cancels the animation of what you were doing and allows you to finish that action and continue with the new action
Nice new guide for new player Aragon and Im pretty sure in a few months it will be the best for end game player, and bte wich power can be cancel in figther? The only I knew was heavy slash but was patched a few months ago, thanks and as always nice vid, cheers
I have a level 25 warlock, should I make a new character or should I keep going with a warlock. If I should make a new character which class should it be?
Play a class you like. Warlocks are nice and have many unique abilities.
Hope you don't mind if I tag along with my own fighter il be following
Which is better soloist?? Rogue or hunter ranger??
Both are good, but personally prefer the rogue
Thanks Aragon man was kinda stuck between the two.. looking for a new dps
I used to play Neverwinter on ps4, but then swapped to Path of Exile. Is it worth going back to Neverwinter in 2020?
that really depends on you. I haven't played path of exile, so i couldn't compare
Is ranger ok for solo play? Any tips?
yup, ranger is pretty great for solo play, just go hunter and switch stances using marauders rush to get in close of jump back far
How can I get Scarf of Embellishments?
from the tales of old event.
Aragon thanks👍🏽
i’ve gone with a sun-elf paladin
Would you live stream the grind?
if I can get my internet to hold up, i might just do that.
i wanted to do a fighter and paladin but damn they are very expensive
I would say, building a "support" character (tank/healer) is generally cheaper than building a dps.
Ur doing this I’m going to join you. Awesome time
The cleric dps, only because they’re fun too play lol
Im going to download neverwinter i heard its free to play on pc i can't wait
yup, it is free to play, but definitely a grindy game once you start getting to endgame
@@Aragon- cool i cant wait any tips on class can i play until max level and keep playing forever lol
Great Weapon Fighter forever
I’ll still play other classes to support but I will always main a gwf
best class solo please?
Rogue I'd say
Does anyone have a referral code for Xbox?
Warlock or wizard ?
Personally warlocks are much cooler, you also get the ability to switch to a Healing Paragon along with your Dps Paragon, at level 30+ that is
I creat all the classes and yes I think warlock is amazing dps. I'm 34 lvl now
Thank you for putting out great content on the game we love ❤️
My pleasure :)
CW or HR!
healer or tank ... easiest to max
You only said "essentially" once every 1.5 minutes in this video! You're getting better!
Sry xD
hello, is this game F2P ? i see alot of comments its not F2P at all o_O
Yes, it’s F2P. Already downloading the game 😀
Yes, it is entirely free to play, you can freely access all content with the right power. It might take a while, but the journey can be good fun.
@@Aragon- tyvm i'm playing it atm looks fun ^^
tank tank tank tank tank tank tank talk tank
What a great time starting this series... 140%movement speed.
hehe xD
Warlocks heal and revive their enemies? No thank you 😂
oof, did I say that xD You know what I meant, restore Hp to allies. ;p
Aragon I figured although I do like the idea of a necromancy class...
Its me or he talks like a robot
Cleric is the best healer and the best dps, what kind of bs is that. god i hate mmos
it is what it is, an good luck being the best dps on a cleric, it's dam hard! only a few have mastered it.
Knowning what I know now after years of playing get out while U can lol
lol xD
Hunter Ranger.
