Community Poll: Divine Avenger or Angel of Vengeance

[BananaHat]

Well, according to Eladrin, we may have some influence on our prestige line. So, please put your vote and feedback as to whether you want the melee line (Divine Avenger) or the offensive caster line (Angel of Vengeance).

Play nice and give constructive input.

I have both so in all honesty it really doesn't matter to me which gets put in first.

AoV; Evokers are currently the weaker ones in Epic, so hopefully this will make them more valued again.

Disclaimer: I have both a Human Evoker and a WF melee FvS.

I'd like to see Divine Avenger first in all honesty, although I have both a caster and a melee fvs.

I would agree that a melee fvs is probably more useful in epics, but casters are by far more useful in non-epics. I also think that giving fvs a melee based pre would help further distinguish between a cleric and a favored soul. Whereas clerics are always casters, it would be nice to see a favored soul get something that enhances the already in place class features that seem to emphasize melee (bonuses to certain weapons, DR, nice saves).

Divine Avenger please.

[jwdaniels]

Divine caster = cleric. Divine casting melee combatant = Favored Soul.

Divine Avenger please.

Same here, doesn't matter much to me.

divine avenger..... more mele fvs dmg... make my beast a monster please?????

[Illiain]

Want? Melee as mine is a melee and I'm biased.

Think is needed more, probably caster.

It's easy to spec for healing as a melee. There's not a whole lot of enhancements based on melee. Once you have a 20 Chr, everything else is pretty easy to plan.

I would imagine trying to fit in both light/alignment and positive/negative lines, along with spell pen would leave AP pretty tight for anything else.

[Gratch]

Melee PRE please. Or just do both at once...

[badbob117]

I guess it would depend on what each pre actually did? I have no idea what each one is gonna do?

I have a offensive casting fvs as well as a WF greatsword swinging one, I grew kinda bored with the class at end game.. My caster fvs is amazing for 95% of the game. The ultimate easy button. Then comes epics. Only a few of my spells work and i cannot hit anything. WF is fun but even that lacks major dps in epic do to the high ac and having to sometimes turn power attack off.

A offensive nuker is almost already indestructible at cap. It is epic where they fall behind. Unless angel of vengeance adds some kind of spell line for epics then i cannot really see myself taking that. We would need something drastic to make a caster fvs useful in epics. It will take more then pumped up dc's and a few more sp to be viable.

I say Divine avenger for the win.! but would be open to trying a AoV if it added some versatility to the class at end game.

[taurean430]

So excited to see this post I can't make up my mind...

Since I have more melee build FvS than casting, I guess the Divine Avenger.

[elujin]

Angel of Vengeance ... plz ... sigh not going to happen T_T

[bryanmeerkat]

Divine caster = cleric. Divine casting melee combatant = Favored Soul.

Divine Avenger please.

Well there is no reason for that to be true . Clerics should still be able to go the way of the Melee and FVS should be able to go caster .

Of cource when either goes live expect within a month for groups looking for healers to only have the cleric symbol up as its going to ruin peoples minimal assumption that fvs can heal .
Not that FvS will lose any ability to heal just that a high percent wont be bothering .

[Jiipster]

Then put me down for wanting to see the Divine Avenger (or whatever you name the PRE that will help me bust heads and break faces better) first.

Quoting myself from the other thread.

[AylinIsAwesome]

Divine caster = cleric. Divine casting melee combatant = Favored Soul.

Your assumptions are completely wrong.

[Bloodhaven]

With no information on what either of these would be why would anyone vote on one or the other?

With zero information on these PRE's there is no way to tell what one you would prefer.

[elricken]

Divine caster = cleric. Divine casting melee combatant = Favored Soul.

Divine Avenger please.

In an effort not to derail this thread I will not elaborate on how completely inaccurate this statement is.

I will instead cast my vote towards the casting PRE.

[Isolani]

I'd like to see Divine Avenger personally, but that's just because I prefer melee FvS over caster. Kinda wishing I hadn't TR'd my melee FvS now with pre's coming and all. Either would be fine with me though, I wouldn't mind giving a caster FvS a try if the pre looks interesting.
