Warhammer Online Empire Classes

The Empire is the human race in Warhammer Online. They have an alliance with the Dwarfs and the High Elves against the impending attacks from the Chaos armies. There are three Empire classes that you can choose from, absorbing Wizard, Warrior Priest, and the Witch Hunter.

The absorbing Wizard is a very destructive, very high damage per second fire casting class. A absorbing Wizard can specialize in different paths such as high singular target damage, damage over time or multiple targets. These spells come with a price thought, too many high combustion spells can blow up in your face. Since they specialize in pure destruction they have roughly no armor or melee offense. Instead their clothing is ordinarily made up of cloth items with enchantments on them.

Warrior Priests are a melee class that strengthens as you come to be more complicated in combat. While the Warrior clergyman does have heals and buffs they are not very efficient if you are not complicated in combat, so no standing on the side lines. They are of medium armor and like many other classes can choose a path of mastery. You can go towards the healer side, go down the middle, or go for physical buffs to growth your dps.

The Witch Hunter is the final Empire Class, and can be compared to an assassin or thief in other games. They are light armored and use pistols, knives, swords, and torches to best effect on unsuspecting opponents. They seek to destroy Chaos wherever they can and will do so by anyone means possible. You can specialize in more right forward combat or you can go the stealthy route and get bonuses for hitting unsuspecting targets. Whether way sounds like fun to me.

These are the three Warhammer Online Empire Classes that you can choose from. All three sound good to me but I like a more right forward class. The Warrior clergyman is what I'm leaning toward. Have fun with Warhammer Online and happy gaming!

Warhammer Online Dwarfs - Dwarf Classes

The Warhammer Online dwarfs are the classic D&D fantasy type. They are stubborn, strong willed, industrious, and at times quite disagreeable. A dwarf rarely forgets a grudge and the race is plainly drawn to war.

The dwarfs in Warhammer Online can select from three classes, Ironbreaker, Rune Priest, and Engineer.

Warhammer

The Ironbreaker is the tank class specializing in heavy armor, large shields, and one handed weapons. Playing as an Ironbreaker your goal is to control hate and keep the enemies focused on you. As you take damage and deal it mobs will further their focus on you holding your team out of danger.

Rune Priest, while not magic users, do possess considerable runes grant buffing and de-buffing abilities. There are some paths of specialization you can go down, ranging from more considerable singular runes, to broader less potent runes. The Rune priest can convert the flow of battle with well timed runes but to do this establishment is the key. Since you specialize in buffs you won't have to plainly sit and monitor health levels, you use your runes then you could hop into battle. Rune Priests wear a respectable medium armor and use staffs, de-buff your enemies and pick them off.

The third Warhammer Online dwarf class is the Engineer. Dwarfs in many fantasy series have been depicted as master craftsman and inventors, and In Warhammer this is that class. The Engineer is armed heavily with bombs, grenades, guns, and a few close range weapons. Engineers are a damage class that is ideal at a medium range. With all this heavy tool to carry light armor will be all that is available to the Engineer.

Warhammer Online Dwarfs have three very different classes to select from. The Ironbreaker is the most heavily armored unit on the Order side so they will be in high demand. Plus who doesn't like dwarfs; they are short, mean and commonly have a fierce drinking problem, what's not to love.

Warhammer Classes

So you plan to play Warhammer Online . . . Now you must rule What to play. Classes in Warhammer Online are unique based on race and realm. First rule on Order or Destruction - good or bad? You will be restricted to one realm per server so you can't make Destruction and Order characters on the same server.

Order consists of three races: Empire Humans, Dwarves and High Elves. Destruction has Chaos Humans, Greenskins (Orcs and goblins) and Dark Elves. The story line pits Empire vs. Chaos, Dwarves vs. Greenskins, and High Elves vs. Dark Elves. The racial struggles fast dissolve in to one realm against the other, so don't roll a dark elf just because you like to kill high elves, humans and goblins can have a go at them too.

The Classes of Warhammer online are divided in to four basic categories: tank, healer, melee dps and ranged dps. I am assuming you are well-known with Mmos here and know what that stuff is. The empire and dark elf tank and the dwarf and greenskin melee dps classes have been removed for release, but will probably be back at some point down the road.

So we have Warhammer Online classes and races so lets have a break down altogether.

Empire Humans: Warrior priest (healer), witch hunter (melee dps), keen wizard (ranged dps)

Dwarves: Ironbreaker (tank), rune priest (healer), engineer (ranged dps)

High Elves: Swordmaster (tank), archmage (healer), white lion (melee dps), shadow warrior (ranged dps)

Chaos Humans: Chosen (tank, males only), zealot (healer), marauder (melee dps, males only), magus (ranged dps)

Greenskins (no sexual choices here): Black Ors (tank), Shaman (healer), squig herder (ranged dps)

Dark Elves: Disciple of Khaine (healer), Witch Elf (melee dps, females only), Sorcerer (ranged dps)

Some Warhammer classes have some sure similarities across realm lines. The Empire warrior priest is very similar to the dark elf disciple, keen wizard and the sorcerer, witch hunter and witch elf. I think this highlight adds a bit of equilibrium and I'm sure Mythic will tweak the principles if it doesn't equilibrium out in the end.

Basically, if you are well-known with Mmo's and know your own play style, you should have no question finding a class you like to play in Warhammer Online. The character creator gives you some descriptions of each class and I would suggest you to find one that sounds fun and try it out. Chances are in fact good you will enjoy it.
