Top 3 Support classes to start on?

As the title says, what are the top 3 support classes to start on (excluding bishop) and why?

Much appreciated for you time.

 

Isses, healers. Tanks are terrible to start, unless you have friends to exp you. Best healer to start is shilen elder, to keep prophecy of wind, the bonuses are - % mana usage, and +++ m attack. Isses are all almost the same in start, best one later, for now, is hierophant.

 

If you're worried about the healing, every healers have equal role in that now, be it cardinal or smth else.

 

Ah yes, i can play Iss Enchanter and start as a Dark elf and follow the blade dancer path all the way up to Iss, finally a fun class i can enjoy playing.

Thanks!

 

There are only 3 real suports in the game, so ur top list doesnt exist =p
Hierophant is better than bladedancer after lvl 101, warcryer is for oly.

 

Ahhh thats a mage class i really don't like mage classes, i played a Hierophant once upon a time but i def don't like mage classes, haha now i m in a dilemma, how do people play Hierophant here? Fighter or mage? Taking in consideration the fact that a Hierophant has fighter skills i m wondering which way is it the most efficient..

 

Ok it seems you are really outdated, after lvl85 most classes ingame change.

Every previous buffer becomes an ISS at lvl 85, and all have fighter abilities with some magic (healing/debuffs), The diferent buffers share 90% same skills.

Both bladedancer and hierophant after level 85 use mainly heavy armor with duals or 1h weapon+shield. The play style of both bladedancer and hierophant is the same, u debuff enemy, u heal ally. they both do it. At level 101 hierophant becomes much more useful coz it has the strongest buff in the game which lasts 5 minutes.


If u wana still be a dark elf, u can be dark elf and hierophant, after level 85 theres item in l2store called chaos essence. costs 8 euro i think? it changes ur class to any other buffer (except dominator)
