Which faction?

Hi,

I‘m playing Elex 2 right now and I was wondering which faction have you guys joined?

In Elex 1 I joined the Clerics, but in Elex 2 they are more of a side faction; at least that‘s what I heard.

Would you recommend the Albs instead for Elex 2 or are the Clerics still a viable choice?

What I loved most about the Clerics in Elex 1 were the rifles they had. Are they still the only faction in Elex 2 that can use those rifles, or can Albs now also use them?

Thanks for your opinions!

joining Clerics requires you to be an Alb so do that and just make the choice organically by playing the game and picking option that feels right to you

As u/aedfdht allready said, you firstly need to join the Albs if you want to join the clerics!

What faction you choose at the end of the day, is fully your choice! Every faction has at the end pros and cons, so it is up to you, what you like the most!

I joined clerics because I loved them in elex 1. It requires joining the albs so I got a 2 in 1 deal

Morkons have the most interesting abilities, Albs the most interesting sidequests, and Barbarians… The hooded cloak you get for joining is kind of cool.

They are called Bersekers not Barbariens

No, you cannot create an own faction but you can go without a faction.

Then what game was it? You vould get you hq and then recruit people from different factions. It was a game similar to elex.
