Starting from the ground up.
The Character Choice for me was a no brainer, as the clan and faction leader the Champion class was the only way to go.
Built as Full Vit with everything focused on survivability, What kind of example could I set if i was always the first to die.
Champions are frequently downed for the low DPS they produce but I've found this not to be the case with some careful gem/stardust combo's and being extra careful about the gear I have equipped, This will be detailed later in the Blog.
