So.. these are the 2 i've tried now (IB,WL,WH,DOK,RP aswell) that i'm stuck trying to decide between...

I obviously like playing scenarios as much as I can, but im mainly focused on PvE right now since I play so much, and at night (like 3 a.m.) its hard to get into them... I really want a character that if I have to can solo play PvE... so far the WP and the BO have seemed the best for me.. I played a RP to 18 but god it was getting annoying trying to solo PvE in the middle of the night with that guy.

So anyway, I'd just like your thoughts/opinions on WP and BO if you have any.. especially on like level 20, 30, end game, etc.. since ive yet to go above level 18 yet.. and I dont really want alts, as I like to focus on 1.

If you stick with your WP, expect to become a healbot, cuz honestly that's what they're best at. You should have no problems soloing tho, even heal-specced (assuming you have a set of dps gear and a separate set of healing gear)

black orcs kinda suck :-/

They don't die, but they don't do dmg. Go Chosen or Marauder if you wanna go melee on Destruction

Black orks are pretty badass

I am absolutely loving mine

If you have good heals you're nigh-on unkillable, and you still do *decent* damage, even if you're not going to top the charts (which is still possible)

Blorks are TANKS not mDPS. If all your doing as a black ork is dps, not using guard or your party buffs, you fail.

SMs don't have party buffs. does that make us mdps?

Personally I'd go WP. Blorcs are solid tanks (they can even heal themselves a bit), but WP are considerably more fun to play imo.

No, that makes you a damage mitigating tank without party buffs. IB's dont really have party buffs...with the exception of Hold-The-Line which helps against incoming damage for party members behind you.

As an IB you can buff your oath friend, and of course you have guard as well.

Actually even if they DO have healing, I can kill em. Unless they're hitting me that is. Besides, Destro has a billion and 1 black orcs. A good WP can tip the balance though. I've seen a few that stand out. Wuttle used to... till he quit.
