Well i was just wondering, because i was considering making a warrior (not DW or Aran) I was thinking DK but i've seen a lot of posts that just lead me to think DK isnt what i want. Im looking for whichever class is the best soloer. Im looking for damage, not survivability, however, survivability is nice too. I thought DK would've been perfect since beholder heal maxed is 500 hp every 4 seconds :S But i guess not. Im not really funded all that much, but i can get by with some good dex equips. Edit: Mostly decided against DK because everyone telling me to go Hybrid but that seems too complicated. I understand it, but i dont want to sit there and switch weapons depending on what im doing :S I like to be able to buy a weapon, and stick with it until i find a better one.

I'm going out on a limb and saying white knight/paladins are the best for soloing.

Paladins are better "solo-ers" in my opinion.

Paladins. Because they suck and are so bad, nobody will want to train with you.

At least half of the above posters are either going by bias or have no idea what they're talking about. If you're talking about mobbing like at zak or cwk or 1vs1 on neutral bosses heros are the best, but nowadays we have way more elementally weak bosses which gives pallys that soloing edge. If you like bfing pallys are the best out of all three warriors, and nowadays it's way easier for pallys to get into boss runs thanks to threaten. Upon the arrival of big bang patch pallys will get inherent crit on blast which will become an att that hits 3 times instead of just once. The inherent crit rate is 50% I think and blast changes from 580 to 280x3 I think. Not too sure about the exact numbers but it will give pallys that edge. ACB also gets increased in damage and speed but decreased in mob size so in terms of mobbing pallys won't be too far behind heros and drks. If you want the most versatile soloer, heros are probably the best. They do well both mobbing and soloing if well funded. They also get the most base hp out of all 3 warriors so they're pretty good in terms of hp. When you said you wanted damage i wasn't sure if you meant you wanted to see high numbers or wanted high dpm, in either case pallys and heros are the best in that area.

To JuanGotoh, u are a retard ^^. To HyndraysOk, if you really want a solo class then u should choose a WK/Paladin whose were good before and with the latest updates are well balanced and better. I also have a lvl 131 DarkKnight and i have to admit they are good for party train and boss, but for solo training they are limited and have the highest pot comsumption among all warriors. Beholder heals 500 hp but its not a lot when u get a 3k+ damage hit from a skele, even worst when u try to control Zerk. I do love my Dark but... In solo training my Paladin is way better, i can train in Oblivion4 without almost getting damage cuz of ice ^^. I can do the same damage as a Hero lvl 160 to Bigfoot and other Bosses with elemental weakness. And even in party trainning i get invited very often cuz Holy damage on Skeles is very good and Heaven Hammer makes the job alike Genesys and other finishing moves. In the end, make tour choise =P.

you dont understand the concept of being hybrid so im going to explain it cause it might change your view of DK's. so you dont switch weapons based on what you're doing. basically you use pole arms from lv 1-130ish because the training spots from those levels are usually big mobs and after that the training is 1v1 or bossing so you use spears. anyways i think all three are good for soloing. DK's are always wanted for parties but are also good for soloing Heroes are good for soloing but are also wanted in parties as attackers sometimes. i think the best for ONLY soloing is paladins because they aren't wanted as much as the other 2 for bossing. so if you ONLY want to solo then go paladin, but really any of the 3 can solo, just the other two will have a better chance of pqing/bossing if you get bored of bossing

paladins probably are best for soloing because they can put out the most dmg against certain monsters and HH allows you to probably train faster than the other 2 warriors

Heros are best for soloing everything overall. Paladins are good but are only limited to certain monsters. Dark Knights are also good against anything as long as it doesnt hit too much.
