Tee Hee, I'm with you on that one :P
Assassins are my favourite class too, they have a good look, nice skills, and are just fun to play.

I voted assassin. I like being able to drop 'em, run to the next, rinse and repeat.

What is really interesting is that Warriors are winning Favorite class and in 2nd place for Least Favorite class. Could this indicate a strong divide between "casters" and "melee" players?

Warrior first, then monk. Playing a good warrior in PvP takes so much positional and team awareness, it's crazy. And monks are fun because of all the juggling you have to do to keep a team alive.

Ranger. I love animals and nature, and have a secret fetish for archery -- something about being the pre-gunpowder snipers. Warrior is a close 2nd.

thats the best part of the paragon the base spear dps is better that axes or swords... (sigh) people just dont understand the paragon... I must say that my favorite class changes from time to time, and right now I'm loving the paragon.

I love my ranger, so I voted for that class. Still, there are many aspects I like in the other classes too, so it'd be hard to say what my definite favourite is. They're all just so much fun to play in different circumstances.

Ranger! I never get bored out of playing my ranger. Ever since I shot my first arrow at a skale from a hilltop..
My nightfall ele is much fun to play as well, especially earth.

Assassin, Its a stronger warrior with Mesmer like Skills. Dervish and Ranger are my second and third favs tho...everything else is kinda...Boring, warrior is starting to grow on me, but back in prophecies day they were just way to slow.

Nothing like Choosing to massacre things upfront or Magic them from Half-Range.

I have a character for every class except paragon, although I have played one before, and like the class, but my favorate is my sin. Stronger then a war as far as damage output, but requires the skills to avoid damage as well as deal it. Also showed me why daze can be such an importain condition to lay onto spell casters.

Was Ranger without question, but now definitely Paragon. So much fun to play. Best class ever created. Having only one interrupt sux, but still. When you get rolling with a good build that synergizes well with your heroes/team, it's simply the MOST fun to be had in GW. (edit: with the obvious exception of monking in GVG)

And power? General Morgahn and I make Margonites weep.

PROPS to the people who came up with it. Still think it shoulda been called Sentinel, but Paragon is original and won't soon be forgotten.

Now how about some, uh, less stylized armor for them? My paragon is an Aegis Missile Cruiser, not a friggin yacht.

I know... and i read the Least Favourite 1 AFTER i read this 1.

Pretty sure i was talking about another Most Favourite Class though... i came to the conclusion it was probably 1 made for Factions before Derv/Para came in.

Shame 99% of the population thinks they suck, regardless of originality, barely anyone wants to remember them.

i voted for monk because, as a healer, I cast a spell, see the red bar go up, and feel like I actually did something.

I find it kinda ironic that at present there are 55 votes for Monk ....


In any case... though I feel like a traitor to my primary for saying this.... the Necromancer class just pulls out on top for me. I generally prefer playing my Necromancer to playing my Assassin, though I use the latter more because he was my first char and I'm collecting all the titles with him.
Assassin is an easy second best..... but Necromancer has to be top.

After that? Not sure. Assassin and Necro are my only two regularly played classes. My only other level 20 character is my monk, but I haven't even taken her halfway through Cantha yet (and she is Canthan)... I got bored... o_0;

99% of the Paragon's image problem is the armor.

lol. I voted monk but she never goes it solo. There's at least some of us out there that enjoy healing and prot within the party dynamic and then getting yelled at for our troubles.

"Pre-nerf" is incorrect. It's pre-buff.

Elementalist. Its good damage dealing but requires thought and careful energy management to be sustainable. I feel more rewarded from winning as an ele because they have no condition/hex control and weak armour.

its much more satisfying than playing a warrior:

Why the least favorite poll? Just an inverse of this one....not quite. Compare the numbers. it seems some people would rather post what they don't like rather than what they do like.

Ele...since controlling the elements is awesome.

-burning things down
-making defensive circles
-freezing people so they can't move
-shocking people down the spine

I love playing Dervish, but hands down I have more fond memories of playing Ranger...Ranger/Mesmer combo. Interrupt, pull, bleed, burn, poison, blind, the pets, degen, energy denial...
I miss my ranger...wish I never abandoned him...

If guildwars was Hack n slash RPG then i would have picked Warrior. Right now, the warrior is very fat and cannot Dual Wield swords.

I voted elementalist.Only because it's so adaptable.It can fill the role of lots of classes I reckon,dmg dealer,assassin,dervish,warrior even(stone flesh aura or what ever),monk,necro,mes,rit,well,basically everything.But,that's just the PvP side of it.

For the PvE.I'd probably have to say monk or warrior.I've played a warrior for a year and a half and I still LOVE to play it.It's so good just running in there going KER-BLAMMO and smashing stuff ^^

Everyday i have a Favorite Class :P
today was my mesmer! i was enjoying it the most.
the only 2 classes i never liked were Paragon and dervish.
Dervish because mostly when i group with them, they are idiots, thinking they are the ultimate Tank class,they go aggroing everything, Running away from the group forcing me to either follow him to heal him and leave the group or leave him die.
I usually go with the 2nd.
And paragons: i never saw any use for this class.


Ah sorry professions :P
too much wow for me xD

No matter what game type, all other classes are disposable..except monk. Monk is really the only class that you NEED in pvp/pve, in most cases.
