Is the main character forced to be a mage?

Or can we be a warrior at some point later in the game?
Want to do some slashy slash and from a dnd inspired game you would expect some freedom when it comes to picking classes.

You can swap them out for other characters in groups but as of right now he/she is a 'caster'.

IMO I don't think they created extra options for main characters because many players swap them out sooner rather than later from what I've seen as you will likely find better heroes by mid-game even as FTP if you're lucky with free rewards.

Main characters kind of just function as an expanded starter hero that is also default avatar - so make sure to create one you can stand looking at for long periods of time.

Thanks...
Its difficult to find one of those gacha-like games where the main character in your group actually plays an important role,instead of just being invisible/non-combat char/useless

I went for a half-elf with the armor that includes a small sword and picked the soldier trait.
At least this way i can PRETEND that my character is using a sword in melee range or something,but its still quite awful since theres no animation for it...

I chose the same because I never choose female(don't enjoy playing with semi) or lizard people and sometimes I get tired of looking at dwarves.

If they had a male halfling option I would've probably chose that.

Yes,but that doesnt solve the issue of being a mage

[Vidokas]

Wasnt the topic of this thread though

i find it bad that you cant have youre main charakter to be what ever you wish to play. i would for example like to have him as a meele dwarf, but i cant do it. "unless" im missing somthing here

[Lestrad]

I agree. It's pretty dumb. Then again, the character creation in general was lacking, especially the fixed gender by race. At least you're not technically forced to use them. Practically, who knows how powerful the main character gets later compared to other characters.

I might come back if you can play something other than mage. Right now you have gender locked main characters, that have to be a mage.

Skip for now.
