What Class Do You Play In MMO's?

[DJ_DEnM]

Berserker/healer so I can take the damage and heal back.

It depends on the game more than anything, but if I HAD to pick something, I guess I'd say either a support class or a tank. I like support since they normally get a nice medley of things to do, along with not having the same burden of performance as pure DPS. You normally don't end up doing the exact same thing in every group. I enjoy tanking since I get to set the pace of the group, which is pretty break neck, or so I am usually informed. I got the server first for a speed completion of an expert in Rift when I wasn't even going to get it, for example (quit before my first month was up... what an over-hyped PoS). Some people like it, some people don't.

Usually the 'Rogue' class or the 'Mage' class, sort of depends on the classes' specific fields and their niche, i mean my first class in Guild Wars was a Mesmer...they looked cool, but it got tedious to play later on, same thing could be said about Mages in WoW, i was an Ice Mage and had it all, basically Freezing stuff to the floor and AoE'ing stuff was great, espcially when i was using my Water Elemental as a Worm on a fishing hook when attracting tons of Ogres for Obsidian Beads....but Mages suck in any sort of PvP enviroment, everyone plays Rogues and stuff, i mean i get Stunned, Sapped and even Silenced by people who plays as a Blood Elf... -,-

 

[technoted]

I tend to roll a tank, good fun having everything trying to kill you and just manning up and taking it like a boss, that or a big axe weilding DPS.

 

[Mechanix]

I play everything except for rogue-like classes. The first type I will make though is a support class, sometimes a healer, but if the game has a non-healer support class, that's mine.

 

[dyre]

Casters, preferably battlefield control, but if not, then (glass) cannons

 

[soulfire130]

I favor the magic classes better except for a healer. I get tired quickly of the "heals plz" or "buffs plz" thing. I don't have to buff or heal you unless you'r in my party. Also, I like doing dps from a distance, if I'm close to an enemy then I worry too much about my health.

 

[Moonlight Butterfly]

I like playing a healer if I'm with other people or a rogue if I'm on my own.

 

[Najos]

Generally all of them to some extent. I almost always have three or four different classes going at once or I'll bounce around as I feel like it. In WoW, the most recent MMO I played for any amount of time, I started with a rogue, then went to a warlock, then a warrior, then I think I played the rogue again, then the warlock again, then I made a paladin, and then I might have played the warrior again....and then I made a shaman! I might have missed something in there, but that was spread out from vanilla until Cataclysm, with a lot of extended breaks and server transfers. I haven't played for about 8 months now, I think. Oh, I just remembered that I had a druid in there somewhere. Totally forgot about that one. I think it was before the shaman.

 

[DarkhoIlow]

Fighter classes usually and I tend to go as DPS.I've never had a protection spec more than a few days after I changed back(I was forced by my guild to do it).

But then I made a pact to never tank ever in any MMO that I will try and play.

 

[Nami nom noms]

Well I never really like playing mages simply because Magic wasn't cool when i grew up... it was nerdy... and the only thing that brought me round from that idea was final fantasy games and their over-the-top awesome spells. However most mmos do not have that kind of magic... so it seems kinda lame to me. The exception is Vindictus which has some cool spells!

So generally, I play rogue dps classes... but i like a character who can dodge most attacks... It's my favourite thing to play... be it tank or dps.

And my favourite class of all time was the officer in SWG... because of the group support

 

[aegix drakan_v1legacy]

I've only ever played Ragnarok online.

First time, I was a swordsman...and it was ok, I guess.

The second time, when I REALLY got into it with my friends, I went archer. And I loved it. long range death barrage FTW!

 

[gNetkamiko]

Really depends on the game, but I tend to lean towards stealth-based classes (thief, mostly.)

 

[The_Yeti]

Everything, But I prefer to start with a stealth class, I like to plan and manipulate battles from the shadows :0

 

[Draenin12]

Shaman I just love them there cool and there awesome?

 

[Laser Priest]

The only MMO I've played was WoW, and only briefly.

And I was an undead warlock. Take a wild guess why.

 

[sniddy_v1legacy]

A support esk damage dealer

I don't go ultra nuke, but I do like to deal my damage and I like to have a toolbox of ablities to assist

 

[Twilight.falls]

Some kind of ranged damage dealer. I've learned from playing a warrior that being in melee could prove deadly, what with you being exposed to boss abilities.

Currently in WoW, I main a mage. I like being able to sit back and kill things, while also having a range of utility spells. Portals, food conjuring, damage absorbtion shields, movement slowers, etc.

 

[MurderousToaster]

Tanks and healers. People tend to like me for it, but I have gained the side effect of having a far lower opinion of DPS classes.

In WoW, the tank character is a Death Knight and the healer is a Priest.
