What class to play as?

[City Builder]

Trying to figure out what class to play as in Final Cut.
I played 1 for a bit and barely really played 2, never touched 3 but am going to start over in FC.

In RPG and MMORPG's that I've played in the past, I've generally enjoyed playing Hunters or Wizards.

So I'm wondering what class in FC translate more towards those two classes.

Thanks

The Elementalist and the Bounty Hunter are the equivalents of those classes in FC. If you're about to start playing, I suggest using Enhanced Mod, before you start to run into the issues the vanilla game has. It'll give you a better overall experience with the game.

Constructor is closer to the WoW Hunter or FFXI Beastmaster than the Bounty Hunter would be, if those are classes you're familiar with. As for Wizards, yeah, the Elementalist is fairly classic in the Skill choices and builds. They play pretty close to the classic Ice Mage solo builds from the Burning Crusade or Wrath of the Lich King era of WoW. Bounty Hunter plays more like a Shaman or a ranged Rogue, to be honest.

I wouldn't compare constructor to those at all. At least those classes had some viable self-dps components. Constructor does not. It's closer to Necromancer from D2, or actually if you've played it it's extremely similar to the Summoner in Hellgate London.

Thanks, I've downloaded your mod and will apply it prior to starting. I had downloaded it prior to asking about class as the info on it seemed to fix a lot and of course like others I want the best playing experience.

They also relied heavily on their pets, even in raids. Especially once they got buffs to the pets in Burning Crusade and Rise of the Zilart respectively. BH doesn't need to use any form of summon at all, while a Constructor has to manage at least one, usually more. Besides, a Constructor with Lead Storm has some good dps viability beyond his pets.
