Hello my name is Shaitin Kalim. I've played MMOs for quite some years now, and I've followed Darkfall in anticipation for a good chunk of that time ;) I plan on being a construction specialist in Darkfall, although I do enjoy the occasional hunting / PVP party.
Some of my past favorite MMOs include: SWG - Long time Teras Kasi master/weaponsmith / later Jedi (Pre-CU of course), EVE - Assault Frigate specialist, although I flew my share of BC's/BS's for missions, WoW - Warrior of almost 3 years (my RL friends played it... what can I say)
Of course I've dabbled in almost everything released to see if I would like it. I played SB for a while, but it was a sample long after it's prime unfortunately. Lineage, Warhammer, and AoC were others of some lesser note.
I'm sure I will find my focus in Darkfall as the game progresses, but I do hope to serve the function of a "siege operator" where battle permits. While my primary focus will always be the crafting side of things, I fully plan on GM'ing the Repair skill, so I can effectively build and operate/maintain siege weapons, boats, city defenses... wherever such skills would be useful. I still have hopes there will be some form of literal "Operation" skills for siege weapons also, but I haven't heard difinitive confirmation one way or another on whether that exists. I would imagine it would take the form of a damage buff for operating siege weaponry, but again this is purely my hopes talking ;)
I've already played with a few of you before in beta, but I can't wait to meet more of you! Hopefully they'll get the beta servers up and running again soon, so I can get a chance to meet more of you before live.
Cheers and good hunting!
