What class will YOU be picking?

Curious to know what everyone is going to choose! I can't wait to play Alpha-2! My only regret is not finding out about this game earlier to buy the dark allegiances cosmetics. :'(

It's definitely gonna be a tough call for me...is "all of them!!!" an option?

Most likely I'll spend the majority of my days in the Warlock/Acolyte/Necromancer triangle 💀

While the Dragon Reigns.

Healer for sure though not sure which variant yet. I prefer burst healing to doing HoTs on every group member constantly so I'll have to try them out. It certainly won't be one that stands around and spams AoEs; that's beyond boring. *Gives ESO the evil eye.*

I have been looking for a game to play as a Battle-Mage forever. I'll have to see how the game mechanics play out, but I really want to main a sword that I can augment with elemental energies! That could end up being more of a Spellsword though....

Worst case I just run around punching people with elements like in Avatar, fire-nation style.

Hehe, even if it's not to your playstyle, it's worth it for the RP benefits!

Man looking at this class chart has me salivating.

My play style typically revolves around enjoying high mobility/high dps but some of these choices just sound awesome. Most likely will spend a lot of time between fighter/ranger/rogue triad.

However, Battle-Mage and Warlock are really calling out to me as well...

Can't wait to start playing around with these in Alpha2!

I have been a tank in every MMO that I have played for years, so probably that. Playstyle wise, I love sustain tanks. Looking at the tank subtypes, I can see maybe Paladin being sustainy, or maybe Warden with a nature base. That all said, I have had this image in my head of what a Keeper would be for so long that I will probably end up with that. I just foresee summoning massive walls or floating shields to defend myself and my allies.

I am going to with Keeper as my final answer for now.

Ashburn

The Shadowblade has me by the throat, so I guess that one will do

I had imagined it as a class built around banner mechanics, but that may be the case!

Me, personally, would like a melee bard class. Or any bard that doesn't jump around playing an instrument, wich is pretty anticlimactic to me.
So, probably tellsword or trickster, whatever has the coolest flavour.

Fighter Bard sounds like a Dervish. Maybe that?

FuryBladeborne

Mage, like 5 of the versions of Mage.

After a while I will add in a Rouge and a Summoner that will be more for performing specific tasks rather than most gameplay. I doubt that I will ever level more than that.

You could play any bard as a melee dps if you wanted to. Just put some talentpoints into weaponskills. ;D

Melee fighter with utility Fighter+Bard= Bladedancer or Tellsword

In previous mmorpgs I've personally always taken a liking to pet-based classes. In WoW it was a Hunter, Final Fantasy 11, it was a Beastaster, in Diablo 2 & 3 it was the Necromancer.

So in Ashes of Creation, it'll most likely be a Class based in the Summoner Archetype. (First picks would be Necromancer, followed by Beastmaster).

But......

There is also something strangely appealing to me... crawling out of the deep dark recesses of my mind that makes me curious about "CULTIST" (Rogue/Cleric). It just has this creepy-weird vibe to it. I like it.....

Voidwalkers

Archmage or scion and watch people fight to their deaths (while wielding gears I've crafted) from afar. add in a few pewpews as needed.

Or weaponmaster / spellsword if the crafting system turns out to be so good that I can't resist wielding the swords I've crafted.

Go the one true way: melee archmage with mage augmented weaponskills!

Craft special gear with perfect mage stats, like a two handed sword with high mentality for the added fire augmentation for example.

Kumary

I might go Shaman (Cleric/Summoner) or Warlock (Cleric/Mage) ... Only time will tell :P
