I agree with everything that shocked just said, your game play depends on what character you select in the beginning. As shock noted, archers deal more critical hits and would be smart to focus on physical/skill attack talents & gear. The Warrior class, in my opinion and shock can verify, should have a focus on HP, dodge, and physical attack talents/runes/gears. Just play to your characters attributes and the heroes you recruit. It's still early enough in to the game where we don't have all the answers :P
