Trying something new

[Wyrm]

Why the heck would someone want to put that much time and effort into a character that can be gone in an instant? :huh:

Because sooner or later we're all going to stop playing the game, and it'll just feel like less of a loss if you don't have 50 softcore characters sitting on the realm servers that you don't really want to lose because of all the time invested in them, yet still can't bring yourself to actually play them anymore. HC helps you make a good clean break with less to hold on to when your characters die.

As for a "safe" character, Skelemancer. 20 Raise Skeleton, 20 Skeleton Mastery, 20 Dim Vision, about the safest you can get.
