Which role do you prefer

I've played all roles in mmo wow in the past. I was primarily DPS because I wanted to be an elemental shaman for pve back when ES was primarily for pvp. Then I shifted to healer from time to time and made a troll warrior as a tank, because I love trolls. I think I enjoyed tanking and healer roles better and healer role is the best for me. It's exciting and challenging. I have a friend who likes being the healer so she could be protected but I want it so that I can save people's ass when they screw up. But usually when there's an excess of healers out there already, I'd probably go tank no problem either. I like the leading role.

People protect the healer? I wanna live in your friend's world. Usually I get hung out to dry. (Disclaimer: I often play with my friends, who'd probably stop playing with me if I couldn't take care of myself.)

I played classic WoW. My main was a rogue, and I did well in PvP and PvE. For anyone familiar with rogues, I ran a hemo rogue for the PvP stunlock advantage, which my PvE guild was thankfully 100% okay with since we had space for the hemo debuff. I lucked out. I had an alt healbot priest that I would've liked to make my main, but I was in a bizarro guild with too many healers and not enough quality dps. By the time TBC came out, I was basically the best-geared rogue on the server horde-side, so I couldn't exactly retire to healing without feeling really bad.

These days I just like having CC, team synergy, and a kit that can respond to most situations. Tactical decision-making is probably what I'm best at, so I like having a lot of tools to work with. If that means I'm super squishy or I do no damage, I'm okay with that.

tanz omg that sig pic i'm still upset about it v_v I WAS SO SURE AND I KEPT PUTTING THE FREAKING "DE" IN AND WONDERING WHY IT WASN'T REGISTERING...

this comment won't make sense once you change your sig but oh well "orz

uhh back on topic

usually i play healer? my mmo experience is actually just ragnarok online (fs priest!), but if i play multiplayer games with friends, i usually take the healer role too. i guess i just like supporting the team from the sidelines and managing health bars and keeping up buffs and such! it was just tough in ragnarok sometimes 'cause depending on party set-up you might not be getting exp or loot but ;; healer's usually my main regardless!

but if they have a scythe wielding or animal tamer/summoning class or like... wild person class. i'm all over that. that's my favorite thing in games omg

i tank hardcore all da tiemz

I like to play tank to be honest- but since I play with my friends- and they like playing long ranged/healers, I always protect them- so ...I think I've always played tank. Last time I played rogue to change things up and I just wanted to go in and spam buttons. ;;

I played a lot of MMOs, but the ones I stayed on are RO and LOTRO.

I always had a soft spot for mages, so I usually stuck on that class, but generally my preferred role is DPS regardless if it's ranged or melee. I don't know, usually it's because I like to cause utter destruction in RPGs lol. And when it's melee, I like hitting hard and fast and in D&D I like being the trap guy sometimes hence the rogue choice.

Sometimes I'm assigned the healer role with my friends though, because it really is a hard role to use and I'm one of the guys who can deal with people running around like headless chickens in our group. I can't do tanks though, I hate dealing with a slow character even if he hits strong. :c

i like tank because then i go in and fuck shit up. but basically anything that allows me to put a shit-ton of whatever special bonus points i get into health.
