*LEAST* Favorite Class

[Sebryn]

Thought I'd take the opposite approach to Zireph's poll.

Try to give reasons for WHY you don't like the class you pick - either that you don't like to play them, or you don't like fighting them, or you don't like [X] skill, etc., etc....

This might give the Imps some insight as to what people don't like about certain classes, to help improve gameplay issues and/or balance issues as they're seen. Try to stay away from things like "they kick my ass, so I don't like 'em," unless you think there's an underlying balance issue.

*Disclaimer: classes that were paired were done so to include them all in the poll. They're paired with "similar" classes, but in no way am I trying to say that they're the same class.

[Amdorin]

I chose healer because I hate dealing with spells. I don't know how you people do it. The constant maintenance on spells just drives me crazy, makes me want to jus run around without using em.

In that sense Pallies would be a close second, but they have the combat fun to make up for it, cuz healers just can't hit nothing.

[Mental Patient-101]

I chose warriors, I am completely different from Amdorin in that I love all the spells healers and invokers have. I have always loved mage classes more for that reason.

[Altheripper]

Monks are the worst, they have to spend too much time meditating and empowering, and I also dislike their anti-sociality.

tiger uppercut and sometimes whirlwind kick.. they were great.

I don't like illusionists. Get dups, find your enemy, spend 10 seconds trying to kill him, gate back to dups and repeat. Yawn.

i dont like healers. they have a counter for everything in the book except blasphemy. they have more offensive capability than before. i dont like to be at a constant disadvantage, but even more than that i dont like to be invincible without working for it. thats just an opinion though, not proven by numbers.

Revised monk thoughts:

I still don't like empowering much, though I see its not as hardcore now (trip usable in defensive for example). If emp off/def had to stay, I'd say lower the time it takes to empower to 1 hour or so?

The number one problem with monks imo is simply the way you have to effectively both sleep and meditate. There is a lot of downtime and its a serious hassle. Simply making monks rest/sleep like everyone else would make monks 500 times more accessible.

Have to deal with empower and meditating on top of rest/sleep doesn't make monks all that more complex or difficult, just more unnecessarily annoying.

I don't like Shamen. Too many spells when you only have to use about three or four of them... They also suck cock and are very boring to play.

[Grayden]

I don't like fighting the shaman, or playing as a shaman. Shaman is a powerful class and I don't like to fight with an advantage from the start, but I usually get killed fighting them too.

Why´d you group together thieves and ninjas? Thieves rule. Ninjas suck.

I'd have to say monk, only because they've been majorly gimped. They used to be way overpowered true, but now they aren't too good. With the weakened tiger stance and the lack of any cabal to join they aren't too fin to play any more... *sigh* I remember back in the day getting ===OBLITERATES=== with my chekera (sp?) strikes on a fire giant warrior. That was fun. Well that's my opinion.

[Soldier]

In the old ways if you train hard anything could be good but afew thieves might remember Decahn my little drunken gnome bard that was always yelling and trying to panhandle then

[Kalist19]

I cast my vote for paladins. They just get boring really quickly. I hate having my pk selection depend upon how many evils are on at any given point. At least with a healer if there is no one to fight you can explore/obtain eq really easily due to all their spells. Maybe this is why I play so many evils..
