When we play games or assign a class to a our characters, we likely pick a class we're generally very fond of. What class are you fond of? Feel free to articulate the specific class you like.

spell theif/blue mage/copy cats are enjoyable for me to use in video games because I enjoy collecting the obscure abilities out there and whatnot. I don't think i've ever played one on a forum because it is hard to balance in most structures i've seen.

I don't think i've ever played one on a forum because it is hard to balance in most structures i've seen. I FORGOT ABOUT BLUE MAGE! Oh man! I love them, too. I will forever want a blue mage tank. I tried to make a blue mage tank on a Final Fantasy site, and I almost got away with it until they decided his spells were "too OP for level 1." So, the more we worked on it, the more they nitpicked until they decided no. XD I think you could actually do it just fine if you limit it to one spell per thread from a monster, or like 3 spells per thread if you're learning from another blue mage. If the site is using monsters with preset abilities/skills, you could just choose which one your char would take or something. If there are limited spell slots per level or just in general, you could cycle out the spells you no longer want/need, like pokemon moves.

I just got done with a playthrough of Dragon Age: Inquisition; in most fantasy games, my go-to class is mage, or magic-based and this was no exception, but, in this case, one of the mage sub classes or specializations is something called a "Knight-Enchanter" which... basically... they basically let you use a magic sword, dude. You go from being a support class to front-line magic based dps, and it's just glorious. I actually took a screenshot of my mage, where you can kind of see her big ass flaming magic greatsword.

I dig anything with mobility as its focus. But I dont feel like there's ever any consistency to which class gets good mobility, so I kinda just go with whatever looks like it could dodge the most. Ideally though, I like playing jack of all trades with a focus on mobility. A little bit of cc, a little bit of damage, a little bit of healing etc. can go a long way when hitting you is insanely hard.

My fav class to play is something like tank...but more focused not just on providing defence but also whacking things very VERY hard with a very big sword. Because the best defence is a strong offence right?!

I find I tend to prefer more ranged characters nowadays, particularly mages and archers. I just find a lot of games have good advantages for ranged characters. However, I can easily enjoy a mercenary or knight type class with a sword. Really all depends on what kind of build I want to try or if I am just sticking to what was handed to me. c:
Edit: This being said, I have an infinity for Fire Emblem's tactician class. It was basically a mage with a sword and it made me ridiculously happy as a result.

what i like to play varies from game to game because every one will have a different feel for certain classes. that said, i loved playing white mage in ffxiv because i get to play god and probably would have enjoyed thaumaturge had i stuck with it. I'm actually a terrible healer tbh I'll play games w ur health and probably fall asleep at some point
lately I've been obsessed with counter classes. let me face tank for days pls
also in the past I've had a thing for unconventional tanks. my mage/priest isn't made to be a tank, but will that stop me from trying? I live my life on the edge

Funny story - I went for tank class on FFXIV (Gladiator) on my main because I figured 'well what's the worst that can happen? At the least I get to hit things with a sword'.... and apparently I amused my long term friend who's been coaching me a bit, because she was like "welp you got the tanks role down pretty naturally of just dish out the pain"
My reaction was: welll I kinda go "What would Gladiolus do"
