Dark Templar is FAR from an off-tank, that would be closer to the Conqueror. Dark Templar's and Guardian's make the best direct tanks overall, with Guardian's being more for single target and Dark Templar work well for AoE.
Just a heads up, the new mini-expansion is coming out on Sept. 8th (Aug. 31st for the early access buyers). I think it's like $10-$15, looks cool so far on Testlive. Better yet, I think the combo changes are coming too!

Kinda sad though because I got a 6month sub like a week before they came out with the packs, and if I had gotten the purple pack, I could have gotten it, the free 50, and 6months of sub.
So we get stiff once in a while. So we have a little fun. What’s wrong with that? This is a free country, isn’t it? I can take my panda any place I want to. And if I wanna buy it a drink, that’s my business.
I don't think the purple pack is 6 months. Probably like 2 or 3.

Finally got around to investing sometime in this game, and I'm really enjoying it so far. Made an HoX on Wiccana, though I feel incredibly squishy for a melee class at times I like the kind of unusual melee/caster hybrid thing they have going for them.
I was likewise finally able to devote a little time to the game. Being a fan of Howard's work, it has a nice vibe to it. I appreciate even the little touches in terms of dialog. The combat, as a barbarian, is satisfying--even if the fatalities have a tendency to look goofy as the weapon and body are often disconnected in the animation. The zones are nice though and are full of nooks and crannies for an explorer like me to inspect.
The public channels are a sewer, however, and after departing Tortage I stopped seeing more than one or two people per hour. While I enjoy the capacity to solo, I can't find a group even if I wanted to.
All in all, I'm happy I gave it a shot. There's a lot to like here, but I'm not quite sold on it yet.
Yeah, first thing I always do when I reroll is remove global chat and stick it in another tab, lol. Sadly, that's what happens in PvP oriented MMOs.
Don't be put off by the lack of groups. Join a good guild, they're likely to have toons around your level. When you get to 80, a whole other game begins!
