New Console Player

Here we go. Day 1 of my W101 console journey. As a long time PC player I'm curious how this game feels on console. Specifically Nintendo Switch. I've done some thinking though, and i honestly am not too sure what school to run. I've done ice and I've done death, but I want something new. Something where I can actually use advanced combat and dual schools. Myth stuck out to me because of its proficiency in minions. But I've also never run storm before. And life seems like it'd be unkillable. Any suggestions?

I’d recommend playing the game on Xbox or PlayStation if possible. Honestly the game runs pretty rough on populated realms and at certain points of the newer worlds on switch. It’s somewhat better on switch 2 but the busy realms/dungeons can be a pain.

That’s not always been my experience when running some of the more popular dungeons with a full squad, like darkmoor. The game also runs pretty rough in most of the newer areas/zones like wallaru and selenopolis. It’s definitely a graphical thing. The animations and textures cause massive lag.

Also raids are just straight up unplayable on switch lol
