I love being a healer, but the want to just sneak up and stab someone in the back is always so strong....definitely a tough choice between the two.

I would choose a magic bowman lol Dx...shooting magic arrows and stuff

not sure is it in game or reality...

I often changes my preference:

o I like melee since they are easy in normal rpg game.
o In MMO my laptop can't handle the constant moving needed (lag), so I go with ranged. cleric/archer
o If i enter the game, I like being assassin, speedy attack and sneaking around is just fun.


so... I am not sure I can answer the poll
I go for cleric though, since I enjoy using them in MMO,easy to find party too.

Warrior, always.

Right in the middle of the fray, damage and projectiles comng at you from all sides, enemies, allies even random mobs all mixed in one blob you might as well call a big target.
Charge in like a madman and escape even faster when you're low on health.

So yeah, Warrior, always.

For classical RPG : Archer ftw ! (and bows only, crossbows or guns are for wimps xD)
For multiplayer RPG : Priest \o/ (or more like any support+healing class)

haha, just for those type what I would choose would definitely a mage/wizard, but then again there's a lot of types of magic...

There should have been a choice of What is RPG. Because I have no idea what it is. I assumed it was some sort of game? Was I correct? What is it?

I've only played MMOs, never classic RPGs so....

1 Mage
2 Archer
I'm better with range than with direct attacks. Mage does both depending on the skills but i like what it has to offer.

3 Thief
4 Warrior
I can work with these two.

Last is Cleric
Because a Cleric is really dependent on others and I prefer not to.

That's my order of which class I'd pick. If I could cross over after a certain level, I'd go for Mage and Archer.

If any of you really like those classes and would like to play as one of them, I strongly suggest Aion! It is a free game and it's absolutely fantastic. Message me if you'd like to know more or we could play together if you already have an account!

________________
If you play Aion on US servers, hit me up!

*thinks back*
Gauntlet - archer
RuneScape - primarily ranged
Fiesta Online - archer
Atlantica Online - archer
WoW - archer
...
If a bow and arrow set-up is available, I go for it.

I try to rotate, but it depends on the gameplay, possibilities, and available class actions.
I usually prefer something along the lines of battle-mage though... Yay for overkill AoE spells, yet still being able to dally about on the frontlines ^.^ (poking critters with a stick).

Sadly, TeS (Morrowind/Oblivion/Skyrim) is one on the few cRPGs to have a decent archery system, or I would probably play that class more often.

This is a fun and interesting poll! I chose Mage because I would definitely be a witch!

You should try classical RPG =)
I find it a bit sad to only play MMO while you don't like being dependent of others
