Character Builds

[MrBadExample]

I, for one, would like to see a bit more in the way of build options.
A lot of RPGs these days allow for multi-classing, which is something I liked. Granted, giving the characters some common skills (such as the characters that could be melee got Dual Wielding), but I was kind of hoping that there would be more possible builds. It's kind of frustrating to like playing ranged builds and then finding that your optimum ranged builds are fairly limited.

So, I think instead of a skill list, it may be better to have a skill tree.
Just a vague fancy more than a practical idea.

I think they are making it so there will be more options, and while I like it, I also dont think it really works for a game like Sacred. Since Sacred is more towards the action style of RPGs it needs to be more simple so you can get to the killing faster. If you want to play a game with lots of char options then try NWN2. I spend like an hour or two just making my chars before starting the game normally. They could incorporate some more of the build things into the game though by just giving us more skills. For me though I would rather just have the ability to change the chars sex and look since I hate running around looking like all the other people in the game.

It would be nice to customize your appearance some.

I was just thinking that I'd basically tried most any ranged build in Sacred, so I really had few places to go.

I tried playing melee with a Dual Claw Daemon and quickly got sick of it.
I tried melee with a Dual Wield/Attack Seraphim and got bored of that, too.
I tried an "energy bolts" Seraphim, and decided I didn't like that, either.

So I'm really feeling like I exhausted all Sacred has to offer me.
