Loving the nostalgia of this server thus far. Way back in my DAOC live days I did a lot of 8v8 on what ended up being a RR11 Champion. I was looking forward to doing class 8v8 here so I ended up rolling a Champ and getting to level 10. Found out the release Uthgard is on doesn’t allow Champs to have Det. If I’m trying to be the most effective character for an 8v8 group am I better off rolling a Hero/BM?

For any serious 8v8 a champion is not gonna cut it for the reason you stated.

In response to hero vs BM... it's a wash. Damage will be pretty comparable I believe (This should be a patch late enough to where blademasters were not longer "gimpmasters").

I will save that a hero probably has more flexibility in both pve and rvr since they'll be able to fit in a more caster heavy group (as slammer / peeler) or a tank train style group.

Champ or VW'r still works. It's just that you and your group needs to realise the drawbacks and adapt playstyle. Which is kinda pointless if you're not in a guildgroup. Imho a Champ or VW'r could work fine (or even better then a hero/BM) if they hang in the back peeling (hello USA) etc.
