Question

What is a good support character for my main character

Answer

The supplied context does not name a specific "support character" build or recommend one template as a support for a main character. It only describes the general template system and the archetype categories available.

What the context does support:

  • Outlands allows highly flexible character creation, so you can mix and match skills into hybrid roles rather than being locked into rigid classes [1].
  • Templates are sorted by archetype, and the listed archetype categories include Dexxer, Mage, Bard, and Tamer templates [2].
  • New players start with a maximum of 700 skill points and a skill cap of 100, which can be raised through the Skill Mastery system [3].
  • With skill orbs and skill scrolls, players can reach a maximum of 720 skill points, and some non-combat/magery skills can be increased to 120 [2].
  • It is strongly recommended to create all of your PvM characters on the same account, because Mastery Chain experience is account bound and spreading it across accounts slows progression significantly [1].

Not present in the supplied context:

  • Any specific "support" template, skill combination, or recommendation for pairing a support character with a main character.
  • Details on Bard, Tamer, Mage, or Dexxer template contents beyond their category names.

For current specifics, the context advises checking the Forums, Discord, or Test Shard, since active development can make templates out of date [2].
