Mages need insane energy regeneration, so you wind up spending tons of points on energy well if you are poor. When you do that your dps hurts so bad everyone is motivated to buy sigils instead. By end game if you don't have 2-3k energy sigs you will be way behind. Also when mobs sneeze mages die - mages and rogues top the deaths leaderboard. If you use energy well, freeze and eshield you are no dps lol.

Energy boost can cover everything for energy. I didnt touch a sigil til lv 175, only have 200 now(because I couldn't sell so I used)

Energy well is a horrible skill, would never touch it, I'd argue spring of life is better.

But the points for energy boost are to spare usually. Say you are 120(119 skill pts), you have 29 in bolt 29 in storm 29 in attune 14 in lure. That's 17 spare on the new cap(new cap so as you level toward 150 you get more points til cap increases again). So boost can be 18 which is good enough. So dps is not harmed but you won't have an e shield. If you want shield you have to dock out points, level up, or split the boost.

As for health. Yes mages die easy but if you are careful(not running into aoes, not ice blasting everything, not taking on 4 stars with low hp) you will win(unless you miss). But as prove to it, I leveled 1-110 full focus, 111-190 with 1k hp. I'm back to full focus again.

Warrior by far the cheapest.

Warrior or ranger I'd say

Warrior by far the cheapest.

ive played both, but ranger requires less items/gold to play. i understand warrior is more heavily armored, but right now im running a dex build so a barely touch a resto. you may take less damage as a warrior, but you are hit far less often as a ranger

Please record a video of decent leveling speed with only 1k health in the towers

Meant energy boost not well lol. It's a weak skill past about 140 and is terrible past 190. But it can get you off the ground if you are poor.

I've played all classes to end game and I'm going with str ranger as the cheapest f2p. With bola you can get away with rarely getting hit and the heal in a str build is enough with a small bit of regen - further you will always have extra points as a str build so bola and heal don't take away from dps.

Dex ranger would be my second choice but then you actually will need energy regen of some kind.

I stopped leveling before the tower hit. But I lived the mordy cave with this much hp, with the aid of a 500 resist crush bear helm(everything there is crush dmg). Did it mostly solo too(did level with friend to help out though 185-190). So with tower I could just grab a group or put a little more in e shield, or test the areas dmg types with my bear helm set. If that doesn't work add more hp. My logic is to use as little hp as possible while still being able to live, for the benefits of killing faster(xp, less dmg taken(being hit less from quicker fight))

It's not a bad skill. Even with it at 20 it can stabilize my energy useage, with lv 50 shards and blast. And me being lv 191, I have plenty of points to spare. Shard blast and attune is 117 used, lure at half makes it 136. 191-1 is 190, 190-136 means I have 54 more skill points, plus everything starts at lv 1. So I could have e boost and e shield if i wanted to.

I'd say Mage or Warrior. Probably leaning towards mage.

Furyion's arguments make sense. E boost is enough for early-mid leveling. And i'm pretty sure that even if you're f2p by the time you're mid game, you'll have gathered enough money to buy decent lux.

F2p don't exist here. Each class will require u to use plat in one way or another. While one class may require less lixes than another, it'll probably require more resto. They all have their ups and downs.

I love my mage and think they could be a good class. I think some of the discussion about energy usage here is a bit misleading.

You can play the game with just energy boost. The easy way to do this is just be a lure mage and join groups. Boring nobody sticks to it but it's doable. I can burn through 12k energy in 1-2 min if I go dps which most mages like to do occasionally. I find it interesting how one person chooses the path less chosen and then tries to tell others it works perfect. It works I have no doubt but that does not mean everyone will enjoy it.

If I had to choose the best F2P I would suggest ranger. If you are serious about end game and F2P I would suggest buying a second device and dual logging. A lot can be overcome by playing two players at once.
