Can't get back into it...

[Akoz]

I just can't seem to do it. I tried with Akoz and for some reason I just can't get the edge to play. I use to love healers but they seem so lifeless. When I try other class I get rolled and just move on.

Any tips on getting my urge to play back?

Try a class you've never played before or haven't played in a long while. Or if healers aren't working and you're really tired of dying go for a good cleric. It's pretty much impossible to die with one.

smoke a blunt. Always gets me in the mood. Or watch some cool anime and get some ideas for charcters. Hmm dunno. But i felt the same like, not but 24 hours ago. and The IMM's managed to get me enveloped again.

Drow dischord cleric. Thank me later.

Actually, just think of a race/align that you think might be interesting, roll an adventurer and just have some until 30. The spark will bite you and you will jump on a class.

I'd say forget race/align that you think is interresting. Find an rp that you think is interresting then choose a race/align that best agrees with it.

pick the race/class combo that has beat you the most..and play it.

play bards till you win at pk with them consistanly, then roll something more aggressive, viola you can now pk better.

whatever you do, do NOT play something extremenly survivable like a healer/cleric/ranger. This will lure you into a false sense of security and get you used to silly pk practices. Start with things that are hard to PK with and work your way to the easier classes to pk with, this way you are used to being more cautious and calculated and you will do MUCH better when you pick up those easy to pk with classes.... orrrr stop caring about PK and focus on pure RP for a while, give yourself a goal, achieve it, then press on.

I always enjoy playing something that is not out there at the time,

SO right now if I were rolling something new it would be;

A Tribunal Paladin

A Herald Monk

A Knight Warrior

A Watcher Battlemage

maybe a Merchant Ranger (a butcher?)

I agree with Hilltop, think about the RP first, and settle on one that you will not grow bored with quickly. Good Luck.

Healers don't just seem lifeless, they ARE lifeless.

It was fun being a healer when you were a pain in the side of every evil because you could undo the damage they did to a good or neutral. Evil actually felt threatened by you.

Now it's like Healers should just let themselves get shoved into Herald. No one worries about Healers anymore. Even the ole Healer RP isn't loved all that much. You're just that guy that sits there and heals and pushes idiots out of the room and get yourself stunned to save them...*sigh* Healers just don't have the edge they used to.

I dunno what to tell you about getting back in. In the last two weeks, I've rolled five or six characters and abandoned them before level 5. I'm not much feeling it either.

Eh, they should allow evil healers, as well as good ones. Rename resurrection with 'dark pact', but have the same effect. Also, give lives back to PKs.

Create good shamans, too.

Now THAT'S what I'm talkin' about! ^5! You're Rick James, Bitch! And I'm Lil' Jon! WHAT?! YEAH!

I'd think that with the way things are looking right now. Rolling a non-powerhouse combo could be a viable option. There seems to be a general uprising for more RP centric things, and I know that some of the RP I've seen is breaking the alignment barrier (In a totally awesome way). This is a GREAT time to be really RP intensive IMO. Imms are showing around a lot, interacting with everyone tons. So roll up a hippy something and FEEL THE LOVE MAN!

Might just be my take though.
