I almost always play a mage. I like being able to manipulate the energies and warp reality itself around me, I think it's much more meaningful than a character who can beat someone hard with a huge mace or just shoot arrows.
When it comes to RPG's I usually go for a ranged melee, close combat (preferably tank), or caster type for games regardless of what they would be.
I prefer to go with a caster magic dealing type class ... Fire mage type class or necromancer type.
I've always loved melee classes with fast, swift attacks. I usually end up going for a rogue sort of class, with quick combat mechanics and the ability to stealth and sneak around to ambush my opponents is where I'm most comfortable. Spy in TF2, Sneak/1 Hand/Light armor master in Skyrim, and a Rogue in WoW! :)
I usually play the healer class. Priest, Monk, whichever. I enjoy helping others.
Hunter, always a hunter! Can't get the hang of melee fighting so give me a ranged fighter every time. Besides all the "puppies" are fun.
I just played the demo to this game and it is amazing! My type of character is one that is more brains than brawn. (Never pick on the academic type) I typically go for a mage or general magic caster. Dark or black magic preferred. I guess I am a girly girl when it comes to fighting, I would hate to get blood and guts on my robes :) Cast a spell or curse so to speak, transform them into a monkey or turtle, then cast them into oblivion. If nothing else, I usually have a large staff for which I can beat my targets to death with. And hey, I am not picky, I don't even have to win the Grand prize, I will settle for one of the special editions ;P
tanks. plate class. kinda like timex. takes a lickin and keeps on tickin
I usually go with light armored melee characters.. rogues ect.
I normally play a rogue-styled character in any RPG / MMO. If the archetype isn't available I'll settle with a melee character of some sort. I've never really gotten into the spell slinger role, despite how cool some of the spells might look.I'll take stabbing something with something sharp and preferably laced with poison over spells any day.. :)
I love any and all types of casters.
I usually play heavy melee. I always enjoy fighting in close with a 2-hander and heavy armor. If there is an alignment system I almost always play good/moral. Though every once in a while on a following playthrough I will sometimes play a more morally ambiguous archer/sneaky type, just to see the game from another perspective.
If I am playing a single player game I tend to stay with a rogue type class.In Reckoning I will be playing a rogue hybrid build.
Paladin, Holy Knight, Crusader, damage & healing type of roles. I like the option of fighting and healing, it allows me to play multiple roles when leveling to be self sufficient, yet still do a lot of damage in raids and dungeons, but throw an emergency heal if needed!
