In classic RPG I like to play a Cleric. Not that they are powerful or I especially like healing but they usually can walk the fine line between using magic and using weapons (usually blunt ones). Also they are sought out in MP because of their healing ability. Wizards are usually too weak for too long in the beginning. Fighters remind of RTS - see the bad guy, wade in, hit the bad guy, kill the bad guy, next, see the bad guy, wade in,... Little strategy except where to apply the power.

In FL I play a bounty hunter (mercenary) type with a little Pirating mixed in to keep everyone on their toes. Why just yesterday....

i personally dont like getting close in and seeing his face contorted in agony as my power totally destroys the poor guy. i generall head for ranged characters. but not those magic types. too fiddly. if available, archers, or snipers if there are any. not much brainwork either. just think about where to go to shoot the intended target without being seen/attacked.

it also lightens up pressure on my hp. whilst melee fighters will have to rush back if their hp is low, ranged guys just have to be a bit more careful when attacking with low hp, cause the prey really isn't gonna get the chance to hit back if its got 50 arrows stuck in its torso.

I cant remeber ever not being a ranger. In life i love to wander ravines and forests so in RPG's i love to be a wilderness man. For rangers though i dont like swords a bow seems so much more rangerish.
