I was wondering if paragons are good with their spear and doing good damage. So does anyone play mostly as a attacker with spear skills could you tell me how it is. pvp and pve.

I play mostly attacker as a paragon but maybe a few defensive/team helping skills. For pve it is great: just another ranged damage dealer but one I heavily prefer over rangers. For pvp its not so great. When you want to rely on such bursts of damage or interrupts you want another class (Of course you can go w/ Cruel Spear but other than that...). If you want to pvp, especially with more people (ie HA, GvG, and AB) you want to go motivational/command or as some people like to call it the "paramedic".

Well for helping/defensive skills I pretty much use everything and everything in the command and motivation lines. Command is more helping and Motivation is more defensive. I love echos and finales if that helps you any.

I've always liked support and even though the paragon does have a few nice attack skills, I've found there are other classes that just do a better job of damage dealing.

I love playing support, specifically "Incoming!" command type paragons. They build up defense and Offense at the same time.
