Summoner or Force Master?

[IcedCold]

I wanna play a mage type character that has great PvE and PvP potential. With my things below what would be best suited for me? I wanna play Warlock but not released yet :/

- I like having great team fight potential

- I wanna be able to have good sustain and not get 1 shot

- I want to be evenly matched and be able to beat melee's with Burst and CC

- Very Bursty

- Good PvP and PvE

- Can be able to do lots of aoe damage to 2v1 and 1v1 easily

- Brings a lot to a team in dungeons

- Lots of Combo's and easy to play

- Sustained burst instead of blowing everything on one person and then dying to another person without being able to protect myself

- Can progress easily without having to struggle fighting mobs

 

Thanks :)

Summoners are generally a bit easier to play, but force masters aren't too much harder. Force masters do a lot of damage from a far range, sacrificing defensive skills. Summoners, on the other hand,are more of a jack of all trades class. Ultimately, it's a personal decision, but I'll say which one I think fits better for each of your points.

 

- I like having great team fight potential

  All of the classes work well in groups.

- I wanna be able to have good sustain and not get 1 shot

  Summoners will have better defense, whereas force masters will do more damage at the cost of defense.

- I want to be evenly matched and be able to beat melee's with Burst and CC - Very Bursty

  Force masters have better burst

- Good PvP and PvE

  All classes have their strengths and weaknesses for both.

- Can be able to do lots of aoe damage to 2v1 and 1v1 easily

  2v1 will be difficult for any class, and they both have various AoE skills. It's hard to say which is better overall.

- Brings a lot to a team in dungeons

  See response #1.

- Lots of Combo's and easy to play

  Summoners are definitely easier to play.

- Sustained burst instead of blowing everything on one person and then dying to another person without being able to protect myself

  Not 100% sure about this one.

- Can progress easily without having to struggle fighting mobs

  Both should be able to progress fine.

 

 

After going through all of these, it seems like summoner is the better fit for you.
