Stealth is better if you like to wear people's faces. Harmony if you don't.

Really, they are both good guilds.

Don't underestimate Harmony.

do they have any other utility apart from wearing other people's face? Evade looks awesome but im not sure if it works the same as it does in Achaea... and blowgun?

We don't get bows in Lusternia, but blowguns can serve the same purpose (delivering poisons from adjacent rooms, etc.)

Stealth is awesome.

Wearing people's faces is quite useful. Under deepcover, you can basically do what you want regardless of enemy status.

Evade has good utility.

Blowguns are rarely used, but once in awhile you'll find something useful.

Veil is excellent. No one can find you.

Stealth isn't immediately combat oriented, but if you think creatively, it can easily be utilized.

Quoted for truth. Used creatively stealth is awesome. Dreamweaving is in the same category when it works.

Stealth has alot of unique skills and utility

Hamony has insanely high regeneration and other utility but limits how much utility is available at once.

That was just an example, making masks isn't the only useful skill in stealth.

Like others have said, I think stealth is a great skill if you want to cause mischief.

A bit off-topic, but what skills can detect you through veil? Scent?

So far as we are aware only a demigod using SEEK from the havens can tell where you are under veil. I do not believe any other means works though I have no idea if clairvoyance works.

I WANT that.

If you want to slaughter everyone irrelevant of having any skill, go any Monk guild. They're all good, and they all equally decimate everything.

Don't go Druid. It's an outdated, dead-end affliction type class.

Shadowdancer is pretty fun, and the RP of the guild is pretty solid.

As far as the two new Guardian guilds of Researchers/Illuminati go, I'd avoid them until they can get a fresh set of envoys in. Illuminati have some pretty OP toys that are more than likely to change, and Researchers can't kill anyone 1 vs 1 (yet).

As far as Bards go, they're all pretty solid EXCEPT for Cantors. Imo, the best is Cacophony for passive attrition, three affs a tick, and passive dominate.

Nihilist is another good class in Magnagora, and one that they could use right now. The guild is kind of dead, but they need good Nihilists. With Deathmark/Crucify, the class is solid. There just arent any good ones anymore.

Warrior looks to be the most fun, challenging, and rewarding classes IF you can invest the credits and time into learning it. As far as best Warrior guild, that probably lies with Ebonguard right now. Though Serenguard is pretty close. (Though Serenwilde in general is full of snugglers. Ych)

Wot?

Harmony is pretty damn amazing. Sure, the flavour sucks, but that's the biggest strike against it.

It doesn't even have learning messages (still. It's been out for how long now?)
