I cant understand why people ask what is better. You can be a warrior, a mage, or a stealthy thief type (can anyone tell I dont know much about the Survivor yet?) Choose which one you want to play, there is no "best". I made a warrior as my first character because I like swords, heavy armor and killing everything that moves with demon-like speed and strength. If this game was extremely technical and there were tons of options that made a difference then I could understand people asking what is the best combination ect. So far it seems like you just need to choose what type of character you feel like playing.
