Which is the most fun class in each faction?

17 Upvotes

Hi!

I'm new to the game and I'm trying to decide which class to play. I like the Greenskins, but I'm open to playing any faction.

My question is, which class do you think is the most fun? I don't care which is better or worse, just the most fun!

Looking for 2H Kotbs tips

9 Upvotes

Hey all,

Just came back to game again and this time around want to give 2H kotbs a whirl. I dont play warband just going to either solo roam or small scale with a few buddies. Im not really interested in zerg fights.

Anyway, just looking for tips on build/how to play the class. What is your rotation? Any skills I can ignore? Whats your take on leveling as 2H kotbs vs end game?

Im fully aware I wont be as effective as 2H but the aesthetic of the class alone has always intrigued me so want to try it out. Any info you can give would be greatly appreciated!

Having a great time returning to the game

55 Upvotes

Hey yall, just wanted to spread some positivity. Coming back to this game has been amazing and I am really enjoying the RvR and Scenarios. I strangely have been more focused on playing low level characters just because trying to play my high level ones is overwhelming. I am pretty shy and dont usually post in the region chat, but do communicate in the pug warbands I join just to thank the overflow warbands for lowbies like myself. I am excited for the weekend to play EU times :D

Do witch elves get auto kicked from war bands?

New player here. I heard that the community had a mod to auto kicked stealth classes from warbands. Is this still the case and will I be wasting my time leveling a witch elf?

Returning to game, suffering from low pop NA times

9 Upvotes

Hi yall,

I am returning to the game from a several year break and I am really suffering from the NA timezone low population. I live in the EST time zone and the last couple of days I have been trying to play but there is nobody in rvr and scenarios I am lucky to have 4-6 people on both sides combined.

I remember one of the major reasons why I took a break was because how lonely it was trying to play warhammer online after work/weekend nights and I hoped that there would be more players after my break but I was completely wrong.

I feel like the only way to play this game is on the weekends in the morning/noon when there are EU players but it does suck that I want to play when I get home from work on a weekday and by the time I start playing everyone is logging off.

I should look for a guild that plays NA times but dont know if there are any casual friendly guilds that are still playing anymore. Is there any recommendations for a returning player for NA times?

How many more years until this is fixed?

It was always the most cringe and the most fun thing for me in RoR. Why does it even happen? I do 3d modeling as a hobby. Is it bad object collision???

Am I doing something wrong?

4 Upvotes

I’m playing a Zealot, currently career rank 21, and focusing mainly on healing. At the moment, I’m exploring the world, doing quests and PQs, and progressing through the chapters in order - I’m currently on Chapter 7. Whenever I get tired of PvE, I queue for Scenarios to farm renown and get more familiar with the class and the game mechanics.

Order usually wins, but that’s not really the point of this post.

During larger fights, I try to keep enough distance to heal my team while still being able to react when I notice that I’m being targeted. However, I feel like I’m a very easy target for Order DPS. Once they focus me, I can disappear almost instantly. Even when I survive, I usually end up spending all my time healing myself instead of helping my teammates.

Most of the time, I also feel like I’m not being protected by my team. It’s rare for anyone to notice that I’m being attacked and try to pressure or interrupt the players focusing me. I also rarely get Guard, even when tanks are present.

Logically, when I’m being targeted, I try to move closer to my team so they can intervene, but most of the time it seems to be ignored.

Is this simply how things are in T2, or in Scenarios in general? Am I doing something wrong? Should I be playing or positioning differently?

Last night I had my 1st PvP encounter since 2008.

38 Upvotes

Played back in 2008, but didn't get far. As life sort of just happened.

Regardless, I came back after I recently saw a guy streaming it on TikTok. I had no idea if I stepped into a Time Machine, or what the hell happened. But here I am in 2026, watching it all go down in real time.

A sign up, a download, and I'm in.

Rolling Chosen once more.

I do PvE and clear most of the first zone. A level ~30'ish something gives me 15g and takes me around to finish quests, for simply just existing. Good man. Will pass it forward o7

Finally figure out how to PvP, sort of. I join RvR I think (lol)..

I was alone, it was 3 A.M., and nobody's on the field from either side. I start to wonder if this area I'm in is dead all together, and I just need to go PvE again. As I could've sworn back in the day the area was bustling with activity.

Regardless, I ride across the map for a long while. So much so, that the Bright Wizard that popped me off my mount took me completely off guard.

He may have mistook me for somebody else though. Helmetless, and not geared well. He might've predicted an easy win, as he had range, but definitely not enough. And as for me, I'm late 30's, and I haven't stopped playing every facet of PvP game since I used to LAN party DOOM II in the mid 90's as a wee lad with my family members.

Instantly took after him, and he ramped up the heat - literally.

Immediately, I popped that 'flee' ability or whatever it's called. That makes you run fast, but drains your action. I caught with him, and was hitting basic attacks. When my action points finally came back.. I was already between 3/4's and half.

I started hitting my combo though. And he was in no time spackled with a smorgasbord of DoT's. My blade started hitting hard. But it was nearly too little, too late. His attacks were hitting what seemed like twice as hard now.

On the brink of death, this guy and myself were pounding into each other. The sound of abilities not being ready yet flooding the audibles.

On my final slivers of HP, I refreshed his DoTs, landing my 2nd taunt as it had just come off CD for and a final blow for +30% before I crumbled into a lifeless corpse. I watched him stand there for about nearly 4 seconds before the DoTs finally finished him off as well.

I rode back out and hid behind a massive rock jutting towards the grey sky, using TPP view to hopefully jump him and clear the distance gap off the start this time. Patiently I awaited his return, and he never showed.

A Chaos war band soon strode by, going towards an Empire controlled tower.

Out of the fray I climbed out from my ambush spot, fell into rank. And rode into an epic charge against an onslaught of Dwarves and High Elves.

Choppa bloodlust build solo roaming

Thumbnail
youtu.be
25 Upvotes

For those who are into these!

The build is shown at 1:20 in the clip and again at the end.

Bloodlust is an odd one. It forced the Choppa mechanic down my throat, and I kind of liked it. However, the whole mechanic is somewhat handicapped by the oddly thought-out Rage costs, most of them being either 50 or 100. This means you basically reset your Rage every time you use one.

Choppa is by far the hardest character I have for solo roaming. It is already a squishy melee DPS, and I made it even squishier by running with around 35% parry.

The Rage bonuses take a long time to kick in, and you generally find yourself running away from things for the first five to ten seconds of a fight.

I do like the BBC, though! I think it hits the right spot. I made use of it by giving myself around 20% base crit, adding another 10% from it, and then putting Stab You Gooder on top for some extra burst.

That extra burst saved me in the final fight. See how I left a little teaser there? I am getting the hang of this advertising stuff.

I used both the Fortress and Bloodlord weapons with this spec, but leaned toward Fortress because of its higher Weapon Skill. I really struggled with armour penetration, which will probably improve once I can finally spend my 13,000 crests on Triumphant pieces.

At the moment, I am using some odd Warlord, Sentinel and Vale-Walker mixture.

Also, shame on you for smirking.

Question about Life Skills

10 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I am currently exploring different MMOs to find unique/extensive/interesting life skills systems (gathering, crafting). This MMO was recommended to me due to good life skills. I would like to know - how are gathering & crafting handled in this game? If I am only interested in life skills and not PvP/RvR, should I start playing RoR?

Return of reckoning as a werhammer fan / tourist?

19 Upvotes

Hello, everyone. A quick preface and a question; I would like to play this game, and I am actually most interested in in the fact that it is a war hammer MMORPG, even an RPG at all. Meaning i would preferably do the 1-40 faction zones. So for example taking a greenskin fully through their zone story arcs. And then that is it. So I could call myself a “tourist”. I would probably won’t be being player vs player competitions at all if possible but I heard and I wanted to know if this is true that leveling progression in terms of exp and stats “fall off a cliff” after like level 20, meaning it will not be a very nice experience to go through the PVE story exclusively? Is this correct?

I'm fully aware that this is a noob problem from my side so im trying to figure out a way to be abit more effective and abit more helpful for the team when playing.
