So you probably have some builds you want to use for AO, but what about making up some gimmicks for them? For example :
I want to make a warlord, so I’ll make it a caveman, y’know, “unga bunga.” With Wooden Club/Greatclub, and Cannon Fist for my first fighting style so I can feel like I’m throwing rocks. Very heavy metal round rocks.
Appearance wise, something like this with the Muscles.
I got three gimmick in mind right now that are mostly simple. I’ll probably make some more thought out ones in the future but for now this is all I got
Shield Only - Knight
Play the game only using a shield for both offensive and defensive means. I plan on this file joining the Grand Navy as some sort of wall-figure shit
Guns Only - Warrior
Just like shield but with a more vast option of weapons that are actually weapons, just shooting for some rapid and high damage. Nothing else much too this side from maybe a cowboy theme.
Rockstar - Conjurer
An actual “gimmick” file, I plan on making a music/sound focused file with Explosion as their first magic, probably Wind as second, and Sound as a Lost Magic. They will not use traditionally weapons and will instead use instruments.
Might try to make a gimmick per build but not sure 
D&D Wizard. You pick the most high-damage magics you can find, and fire magics then have no points in defense just power.
so you die of 1d4 stabbing damage but deal 23d6 fire damage on a hit.
Pretty interesting, and I did think of a Guns Only weapons build though I didn’t connect it to cowboys!
hey, that’s not a gimmick! that’s just the average Mage main! /s
oh. okay.
not entirely accurate from a weapons perspective since flintlocks and muskets weren’t really used by that time but I think the vibe is nice 
wonder what kind of cosmetics I’ll have to customize for this very niche outfit choice
less of a gimmick and more of a theme but essentially conjuror with guns only that rarely uses magic (zora build)
catmaid build (berserker)
claws as main weapon class
no clue for fighting style yet
maid outfit
cat ears + tail
cute anim pack (maybe)
how is this relevant or to do with gimmicks
Fuck, wrong forum topic, sorry.
If vetex does add instruments im def gonna pickup a guitar and bind it to shadow or lighting
This topic makes me want to farm for every build possible
Agility build
Knockack build
Magic casting build
shit like that
I’ll prob to a mma or kickboxing type build
I’ll be a berserker with boxing, crane and sailor fist.
Though a cool build would be a Johnathan joestar one. I would be a savant with thermofist and light magic. I would also use a sword that looks like pluck and if I can’t use an ability(or weapon) I need to I’ll just take away my health stat and use it for that or a dif stat
I am THE SHIELD KNIGHT!
When ao comes out, I’ll make an alt account to remake King David, the Exiled and the Minotaur.
average level 20 mage be like:
Lol
