I use to finish games, but my last EA horror story which ended me perm ban from the game[EVEN THO the Dev abandon the game when I was vocal about it he banned anyone against him [Citadel Forged in Fire] ]

so now I tread lightly on EA games making sure my rpg stat min maxer itch is scratched.


You're continuing though to seemingly convey compelling evidence for why this game may not be a match for you.

There is no class. There is just gear -- you can CHOOSE to wear heavy armor and a giant tower shield. There isnt much magic either: healing is done from food buffs or potions you can make, and you have no spells at all.
you are a viking in a somewhat loosely lore based afterlife with some of their lore, all converted into a survival style game.

Have you looked at expeditions: viking? That has a type of magic and 'classes' -- its wonderful, but its way too short :(

Well, there is healing magic: when you drink potions or eat meals, your bars magickally rise up again fast. It just that it's not instant.

You have weapons that work fine against undeads.

In co-op, you could be the character who tosses potions at friends during fight, but frankly, with such huge inventories, everyone can store potion and meal before fight. You could instead be the one who actually works to prepare potions and meals for other who specialize in other duties (collecting resources, building, etc). It isn't any actual specialisation (no skill improvement), but RPG specialisation (actions you do in game).

There are no offensive auras, but they can be "tank"/aggro roles, although these will require a fairly high playing skill (how to dodge and parry, how to position, etc).

The Valheim Legends mod gives you 12 classes to choose from. Maybe one of them is for you?

You can't. Simple as that. And probably never can be, as this is not a high fantasy game. It's very low fantasy, very down to earth basic combat.

You are either strong and prepared enough, or you perish.

No healing magic is going to save you.
