Old man seeks suggestions for which class to play

[o XxxXl_samnum_lXxxX o]

Hey all~ l'm a vet of the game that hasn't played in years and l suddenly have an urge to play the game after l received an email saying my characters would be deleted if l didn't log in by a certain day, but l'd love to check out the game again!
l heard there was a burning event of some kind to level up fast coming soon, and l'd love to check out one of the many new classes
Do you guys have any suggestions for which of the new classes are the most fun or interesting to play?
l've made every class in the game except these, so l guess these are my choices:
- Illium
- Cadena
- Hoyoung
- Adele
- Blaster
- Pathfinder
- Ark
- Kain (obv since he's not out yet)

Just from looking up videos, l'm most interested in Illium & Adele atm, but only because all the other ones look very braindead or wack; and of course watching gameplay where you have no idea what's happening is different than actually playing it yourself. l'd love to play a class that keeps me active with and interesting playstyle or mechanic (l don't want to hold down a key, press 1 button destroy map > teleport somewhere > press 1 button etc.; lots of movement is a plus)

Adele is 100% braindead, it's crazy strong with very minimal inputs, if you still like the overall design then go for it, otherwise just ignore it.

If you really want classes based off rotations then the top 2 would be Cadena and Blaster, they both revolve around animation cancelling and cycling between their skills to optimize dps/burst, hoyoung is similar to an extent.

Pathfinder just requires to macro all skills and there you go, you do that for both grinding and bossing lol, Ark is a strange case, they are based around cycling between skills but I believe it's a lot more efficient to simply press down one skill (at least in the NA server) and Kain well, dunno, apparently Kain is below average

Old man replying. I have been raising an I/L mage for 15 years now. Lots of fun & lots of skills. I also love my tanky Paladin.

I guess that you already played those BUT, thinks change, often a lot. When did you last play? And what's the highest level you reached?

Also, I personally just like simple skills - press a key & they happen. I was totally bamboozled when I first tried and Ara, still don't understand the dark/light side of Luminous (or don't want to). How do you feel about that?

Are you into bossing or not? That makes a difference. I boss with my Pally (and get rich selling the equip drops), but not with my mage, who is great at mobbing,

Also, I only ever Solo. How about you? I am sure that you know that a Bishop is welcome in any party, some classes re better at bossing, some at mobs ...

If you can tell us a bit more about your likes & dislikes, when you last played & what you are after, then we can help you better.

Also, log on on all those old chars to keep your Legion up.

If you wait for the upcoming Neo event, you can "burn" a character so that it rises 3 levels for every 1 gained. I believe that there will be two of these in Neo.

Also, consider characters that have good link skills (Mercedes) or Legion skills

I honestly thought Adele was very interesting, it's very story based though so in the beginning there's a lot of dialogue but it isn't boring by any means so I would say go for it. I liked Ark but from what I remember it had a weird skill cooldown so that kind of sucked but other than that, I really think it's worth a shot. It's a very powerful class in my opinion. From what you say, I believe you should go for Adele. What server do you play in?

I am a OG player too, my heart is permanently suck on Explorers though, I've tried others... but I always end up going back to Explorer lol.

[LUSA_EXE]

if you like a lot of movement then ark has that. Illium as well i think.
Blaster will hurt your fingers.
If Adele looks interesting just play her

[I'm her ♡]

I feel this. OG player as well and I always end up going back and making more Explorers hahaha.

I've been playing since original cannoneer release (right before ~2011 legends update). I have one of every job class and you can use each one to boots the stats of the others through links. The legion system is also nice and a bit more useful than the old character card thing since more of your critters can actually participate. I don't really have any favorite job classes though as they can all be interesting to play and useful. I find that even the ones that are gimmicky and op serve as filler spots as links or either legion stat boosters.
