Mage or assassin?

What is more fun in your opinion?

 

Mage is more fun for loot running or movement in general but I have to say assassin is undeniably fun to play and takes the WYNN. :D

 

thanks! for responding

 

I love assassin and mage equally, i started playing assassin first and id say acrobat and shade are really fun, but mage has lightbender lol.

still because assassin has two fun ones and riftwalker is kinda eh, and arcanist dies too quick to be fun id go assassin

 

I've only done mage so I can't really properly give my opinion
But compared to Archer mage is definetly more fun
Playing as Archer i was really surprised how often I had to care about how low my health was
Granted, this was in 2.0 beta so I only got to like level 30, but health potions were rather hard to come by compared to how often I needed them
I just generally prefer being tankier so I preferred mage

 

Anything is better than archer btw :D

 

ok ty! ima play assassin

 

Kinda late-ish but if you want a brief description of each Archetype:

Riftwalker: Your damage scales over time the more you attack an opponent, and this utilizes all of your spells to deal damage

Light Bender: Your meteor is changed into orbs that will deal damage when you use your melee attack and they rely on you healing them constantly. This is nice if you don't like casting spells too frequently

Arcanist: a little squishy due to lack of heal, but this focuses on casting spells repeatedly and works wonderfully when dealing with large crowds of enemies
------
Shadestepper: Hit and run, typically requires you to be glassy but gives you the capability to one shot opponents

Trickster: Clones have a possibility to reduce damage you receive and sacrifice themselves, but while they're active they'll mimic all your spells (you'll have reduced damage tho)

Acrobat: spell spam, requires you to stay airborne constantly to dodge enemies and attack them from above. This requires a lot of skill to use efficiently but it's super fun once you get the hang of it

 

that is a nice description and thanks!
