NewB Question: Starter Charecter

[bluedance]

OK I am totally new to SoS and currently downloading game client. I am going to ask a NewB question: as I am new to this game with no money no items, what is the best starter character for me to start the journey?

I check the game guide in official website but sh*t, the descriptions are to simple and I can not even get a picture what are the differences in between each and every classes. Anyone who can give me a brief descriptions or give me a link on that will be much appreciate.

Thanks in advance. :D

I actually just saw a funny and helpful guide on choosing class here (http://outspark.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1346340#post1346340).

Obviously your choice will depend on your preferred style of fighting, but I would suggest considering a healer as a starting class. Searching for parties is a great way to meet people, and, in my opinion, enhanced gears are not obligatory for healers (as they would be, to varying degrees, for fighters, rogues, disciples and archers), which could save you some money. On the other hand, if the ability to solo (and therefore to advance levels regardless of who else is on) is absolutely important to you, then go scout --> archer.

Anyway, welcome to Solstice and good luck~

LOL ><;;
nice way to choose a class simple and fast i suppose ^.--

but yeah if u wanna get to kno ppl being a healer(acolyte) would be a great way to do it, and its a pretty easy class to play in my opinion... especially when u get higher all u really need to do is find aoers and help em out, which again in my opinion is pretty simple since the aoers dont die fast and most of the time all u have to do is buff every couple of mins and heal every now and then, unless the aoer isnt so good then it could be a problem... but then again if u wanna lvl and not be so dependent on having a party i would suggest a fighter(squire) or a scout... but i would more prefer a fighter class cuz theres just TOO many scouts ><; theyre easy to train but i mean... it gets bland seeing a buncha scouts everywhere ><

but then again[lmao]
apprentices lvl rlly fast at the beginning but a bad side to being an app(unless ur good and get the feel of it ;D) u will start to rely more on parties as u get higher or at least duos so u can be protected more safely and also have to buy alot of mp potions since their skills require more mp than any other class, but its not as bad as it sounds... ^^ but i personally LOVE the mage route, they arent as common as all the other classes and it requires a bit more skill to play it well since there can be alot of sticky situations since their defense isnt great(it IS possible for a mage to aoe with the help of an aco though, just gotta get those great gears ;D)... and i like the fighter as well even though i retired my knight somewhat ><;

also a good class for solo grinding would be disciple... u would need semi-good gears to solo efficiently but u dont need the top gears unless u want to aoe... they have a self-healing ability which at the first lvl it heals 40hp i think every second for a few seconds(dont kno the exact stats ><) but if u take damage of 40 or below or even 50-60 u can solo pretty easily...

neophytes have good dodge if u stat them right, and fast attacks... but they dont have much of a good defense(the defense falls mainly with fighters) but again they can be pretty good duoers if u find an aco to help you in harder maps... and if u get good gears they can also aoe... and they aoe really fast since they dodge alot of the hits(the "enhance" skill helps alot with this) :X i dont kno much about this class cuz ive never had a neo over lvl42 ><

*srry so long, those are my opinions on the classes :P*
