Through my years of mmo and rpg gaming I’ve tended to swing between the two extremes of the warrior/wizard dynamic.

Some days I just want to be a dumb tank in full armor soaking up hits and acting as a wall for squishier classes. But then there’s days where I love being a glass cannon that can kill something in 1-2 nukes but a strong breeze can kill me.

The least fun I’ve head with a class was as a healer druid in Everquest. Something so stressful about the party relying on you for heals and if you wipe it’s generally your fault. idk how people dedicate themselves to a class like that.

I play whatever I’m in the mood for, don’t really gravitate towards a specific play style. Although I do tend to like DOT/poison builds.

In MMOs I tend to have at least one high level tank or healer. I like being able to hold the group together. In TTRPGs I always pick my class last so I can fill in whatever the group needs.

Spellswords and gunslingers; the latter because I love bringing Morricone energy to a table.

I play some kind of wizard usually. The mage/rogue might be the class fantasy i aspire to most, but in most games its just less interesting than full wizard. Youd think that in a magical society more martials would learn at least a bit of magic on the side, but even ones that have the means just don’t

It totally depends on the Genre. In diablo style games I go for the kitey shooty usually bow/crossbow class. In tab targeting games its always a heal over time class. In more TTRPG inspired games I love rogues. In party based games I love whatever class lets me stack the most buffs. Thats just the crunch though.

Overall I love druidic vibes. The class fantasy of nature fighting back is too juicy for me. There is something so wholesome about murdering corrupt priests/kings with pagan power. My go to class in just about every game is a wood elf druid.

The druid class hall in WoW Legion is a perfect representation for why I love them so much. Its just this perfect lil grove and someone wants to corrupt it. Stopping them is the simplest strongest motivation for me.
