In the event that no one pays attention, here is some of many key things you need to know about this game... THERE IS NO HEALER, you heal from orbs that drop during fights which means it's key to communicate who needs a priority heal and who needs to stop getting hit for no reason. This game will not be easy mode friendly when you start hitting the end game. It will require a long time grinding all classes for more stats and perks to get stronger. You start out with 3 classes Paladin, Cryomancer, Lightbinder (unless you used the Founder pack unlocks) from there you will need to gather shards to unlock the others within the ascension tree. I will update this with more notes after I play the beta some next week. I don't want people to think this is WoW or anything else that hands you goodies and levels on a silver platter.
Update: Do the GROUP mission called Mare Sacro Monastery (Rough 2k+ Prestige needed), this is a required 5 man dungeon and a huge derp check on max difficulty for people who think they're good solo'n the squad missions. Please also note that the aforementioned group mission is actually really easy compared to the higher level ones (and raids) by far so if you can't do that without dien' then I'd suggest choosing a different game.
