When I'm playing an RPG I like to pick whatever gives me the most choices in a given situation. Usually that means a spellcaster or bard. Magic's versatile and there's only so much you can do with a hammer.

I also don't generally play MMOs.

Mages. I'm ready for anything.
If Oblivion was PvP, I'd kick your ass. WITH YOURSELF.
Illusion magic, ftw.

I tend to always pick a tank class. I like to be responsible for keeping my friends alive. I always have a healer secondary though.
I tend to pick either a DPS mainly because I see tanking and healing as to much of a responsibility thing. With DPSing all you have to do is attack the enemy and do high amounts of damage, pretty easy compared to the other two.
In RPGS like Dragon Age: Origins I tend to pick someone who can use swords but also use magic. Kinda like how Gandalf can use both magic and is skilled with a sword.

Wizard.
Because 'You give the reality around your foe a command and it responds. Space and time twist and bend as your enemy is rend apart by the forces of creation' is way cooler than 'you swing the sword around you really fast and decapitate your foe'.
Magic classes tend to be versatile in their spells and abilities. You got DPS, buff, debuff, AoE and all in between, whereas I feel like there are only so many ways you can swing a sword or throw a dagger. Usually you need to speacialize pretty heavily with fighter-classes, choosing only a weapon or two to attempt to master. This means choosing between range, DPS, defence and other modifiers early on and then being trapped by those choices. With magic you can customize your spellbook as necessity dictates and find combinations that work for your particular style of play.

Lumberjacks are cooler! Who else is going to wrestle a bear when it breaks into your house an tries to steal your wife? A Bard? A Barbarian? I don't think so, a Lumberjack!Escape_Artist said:Bardbarian. Yes that's right. Noobs roll bards and pros roll bardbarians.
I picked healer because that's what I prefer. Magic-casting, usually ranged, DPS would be my second choice. I love to PvP though, so a healer is ideal to stay alive when I have a pocket DPS or tank symbiotic relationship. XD
Fuck yeah. I spent so much time dicking around with Illusion magic in that game. I almost feel like going back and.....Onyx Oblivion said:
