Returning player after three months

Hi, I recently returned to LA after quitting in April. I mained Gunslinger and got used to the gameplay and was able to do Argos p1/p2 with random groups. I had an accident then and was the main reason I stopped playing for rehabilitation and therapy. I lost about 30% of my motor skills. I got back to gaming and wanted to play LA again but found my eye-hand coordination and accuracy/timing aren’t the same as they used to be. Even with just Deskaluda (I just hit 1415 a week ago and currently at 1445) I struggle with timings and such although I’ve improved a lot since I started doing it. First day of trying it someone told me to delete my Gunslinger because I messed up a lot LOL.
I’m just using bus services for Valtan and saving some gold for Vykas bus run after this reset.
I am thinking of perhaps giving up on my Gunslinger (turning it to a Lopang slave lol) and switch to a DPS class with much less skill cap. Although I did see GS will get buffs with shotguns, hoping gameplay would be easier.
I’m already working on a Palladin (currently 1385 full support build) which I really enjoy playing.
I wanted to ask which DPS class would you guys suggest that has a lot less skill cap and is much more forgiving to play especially with Legion raids. I get anxiety attacks just watching Vykas and Valtan guides LOL. I currently have Sorc 1370 (Igniter build) Berserker 1310 (Mayhem build) Shadowhunter 1340 (Demonic impulse build).

Thank you!

Okay at first I whish u all the best for a quick recovery, I think the eye hand coordination will come back. I think it’s like learning to walk again. It will take time but I heard from ppl who run a matharton after getting better so it will be okay I hope!

For ur question. I think every ā€œpianoā€ class like demonic, Taj-scrapper or Ironman Scouter should be okay? U basically don’t have to bother about a rotation or anything just press everything that’s up and focus mainly on mechanics.

Peace!

I think you will enjoy support a lot more bc you mainly just focus on mechs and cast your skills.

Im a bard though so idk about paladin.

Also im sorry about your condition and hope it gets better! If you enjoy gunslinger dont leave due to toxicity. I hope you enjoy this game and continue to stay stay safe and be well

If you want dps you can pick reflux sorceress or demonic shadow, since you already have demonic shadow I recommend it. It is fun too

I wish you a smooth recovery :slightly_smiling_face::dizzy:

transformation scouter which releases soon will the best for sure, you dont really have to focus on a real rotation and when you transform you get a big shield which makes it much more forgiving if you cant dodge all the normal patterns

its also cheap to build since it uses barricade engraving and only 2 gems are necessary so its easier to get geared

i wouldnt advise to go igniter sorc, maybe reflux if you dont have issues with just pianoing your buttons, like really fast clicking since it goes swiftness which is easier to play with and you can blink really far to stay out of danger

i havent played artillerist personally yet but from the looks of it it also doesnt seem very mechanical, especially with the wheelchair build if you dont mind that sort of playstyle

easiest option is also supports, they are the most forgiving in these situations since they dont go grudge and you can even go heavy armor

Igniter sorc, mayhem zerk and demonic impulse sh are all classes that I play aswell and they are really fun/satisfying to play. My main is igniter sorc so I could suggest to go for her but tbh demonic sh is so good aswell :heart_eyes: my demonic is 1415 and i think I will push her next. Especially because her demonic form will look a lot better in the near future

I cant help you with which classes are easier to play but if you are from EUC, i dont mind running valtan and vykas with you to help you out for time being till you get a bit better.

IMO:

Berzerker is the easiest BUT it has animation locks which you will need to use spacebar to cancel, it takes some practice to manage it, but is not a big deal.

Deathblade, personally I play surge which is a bit less forgiving, but remaining energy is really casual, the only downside with the class is that is a bit squishy.

Destroyer, is REALLY easy to play it’s vitality is high and the damage is average to god tier, BUT the downside it the speed and lack of push inmunity.

Artillerist, is also easy to play, some skills do require getting used to but nothing to complex, probably the only downside is the speed but not as bad as destroyer’s, also the wheelchair memes are good (he looks like he’s using a wheelchair when he transforms). Also is relatively cheap to build.
