Not a big fan of soulbeast. it seems rather bland, and I'm one of those people who expected transformations from how the class was described before it's full reveal, so that was a downer, too.

Most looking forward to Scourge, as it's about time that Necro got some use as a supportive class, the visuals look great and from what I played of the demo events it's just an overall fun spec to play

My top and worst? Well just from the beta periods...

Top: Holosmith

  • On paper, damage boost. Possiblity better for Power builds than Condi.
  • Potentially can see a skill replace a kit for DPS
  • Photon Forge is awesome
  • Increased mobility with 'Holo Leap'
  • Heat Mechanic to "buff" Holosmith Utility skills
  • Very smooth combat

Worst: Holosmith

  • Likely "Purity of Purpose" nerf scare
  • Sword "mobility" skill 'Radiant Arc' is nearly same as just running
  • Utility skills cooldowns, Prime Light Beam's channel time
  • Off-hand is still core, Pistol is fine--but Shield still has long-cooldowns which will likely really hurt sustain in PvP
  • For something based on "light" you do swing a sword really slowly
  • Lose Elite Toolbelt skill almost forcing you to use Prime Light Beam (unless they buff Supply Crate--aka Turrets)
  • PvP - Despite all the damage mitigation it provides, you are still very squishy if you run full Holosmith and spec for damage

Some things may change on release, but since a lot of players were praising Holosmith--probably won't...
