My schedule also only allows me to play casually, as well, so you probably have a point. My attraction to the Hunter class was deeper than that, though. I tried rolling other hunters, but it never felt right unless it was a dwarf and I had a wolf or bear. I imagined Grimaldi (my Hunter) huddling by a camp fire in the hills above Iron Forge, feeding his pet bear Medici (Med-e-chee) scraps of meat from his iron skillet. At heart, Grim was a loner, rejecting the expected dwarven life of mining and blacksmithing. He cared not for riches, only simplicity, honor and justice.

As you can tell I had quite a relationship with my avatar. I would literally even protect my bear over a teammate, because I felt so attached. After all, Medici kept me alive whenh no one else was alive, why wouldn't protect my best friend and partner?

Plus, guns are just plain cool with dwarves.

No other class offered me that level of immersion and detail. I think that is why I was so drawn to it.

...

ANYWAY, what do you guys think of my preliminary class build. Does it sound interesting? I had another idea that certain engineering related special attacks would need both minimum avatar level AND engineering level to learn, but they would be engineering attacks that require no supplies (bombs, dynamite, robot attack chicken, etc.)
