Hey guys,

Basically I'm training up a 2H, i'm 4 gapping but closing and opening it often and I currently have 1.5k SP with alot of early skills.

Now, I like the 2H but I think STR Bow/Hybrid would be fun.

So my plan is to to level this guy to 40-50 and then get on my friends comp and let me bro powerlevel my future bow.

I need to know what is the fastest leveling sub?

Is bard good? In PVP too? Is it a decent build?

Thanks.

EDIT -- Oh noez! I posted this in GD, lol please move MODs.

Bard would be quicker, as you can have moving march; as of compared to only having warrior, where you run slow with heavy armor. Cleric is for defense; Warlock for more offensive power. I say go bard because it just seems like you're going to level it up to 40-50 quickly and use it to power-level yourself a new character. So best choice would be bard. Although, if you'd like to continue playing on this char until you hit the cap, I would go with Cleric. Cleric because of the healing skills it has, and with bless spell, your defense will increase by a great amount. Having Cleric as your main/sub is just like playing on a Chinese character; no pot delay. Actually, there is quite of a delay, but only by 1-2 seconds; compared to the 15 second pot delay, that's a huge difference.

Thank you very much.

I'll go Bard, if I want another warrior i'll just make a new one, not to fond of this characters looks.

Seems like euros can be overpowered with a sub cleric.

EDIT -- What skilss from Bard stay on with a diff wep? Looked at a guide said only 3, this true?

No problem, glad I could be of use. Off the top of my head, I can think of Moving March, Swing March, Noise, Mana Cycle and Orbit(even though their not like the others, their effects last when weapon is switched.)

Also I forgot to add onto my first post, Noise will help you a lot. Compared to the Chinese version of "Noise", the European Noise protects against everything. Normal/PT/Champion/Giant mobs. It will help you get by because then you can train on monsters that you couldn't before, due to their aggro decrease towards you. Hopefully this gives more info for Bard. Have fun

No it doesnt. Champions, Giants, and Elites will still pre-emptively attack you. Noise only works on general and party general mobs.

uh wait.. you want to powerlevel with a warrior?

just drop the warrior, level a wizard with no sub 0 gap to 50 then powerfarm your chinese bow with it.. i'm sure you will save time in the end.

powerlevel with a warrior is lame, even more with a low level one.

Nah mate, I'm not going to powerlevel at my current level lol.

Also I REALLY dislike wiz, I still want to be semi active on my 2h tho.

As a str bard you can still get into share pts as a bard shouldnt be too much trouble barding so barding is the best choice.

actually Bards are better plvlers than wizards if you are trying to conserve gold. They attack fast + move speed + they can stay out longer
