So I just bought the game a few hours ago.. GG long installation lol But i guess gave me time to look through the classes more. Thinking I'm going to make a Barbarian, the melee aspect of the game looks too fun to pass up. I hear theres a huge patch to d/l so I guess I wont be playing til tomorrow lol, ah well.
So anyway, any tips for a newb?

do all the quests you can
im level 20 without even doing the level 15 quest

2hand is like crowd control and stuns
duel wield is basically raw damage

play on Set.

yeah you will have a bit of patch installing to go through

It took me 3 hours to download whole game, Yes make a barb they are good, I have one, They are very good dpsers and good in pvp, I can mainly kill everything right now besides pom, they are so op right now, I am level 27 also

Level with 2h.. You fight 2+ mobs at a time mostly, I usally fight 2-4, cant fight good multiple with dw also gold in this game is hard as hell to get at low levels atleast, lvl 40 mount costs 2g+1g training skill, I've asked alot of high levels and said dont expect to get your mount at 55+,55 lowest if u dont buy anything

I hear buying mounts at gaming boutiques was an option for those that didnt get Mammoths and/or Rhinos for Special offers.
$10 a pop was what I heard last...
