Poll "Wich class/classes do you want to play?"

Which class are you most interested in?

I know it's difficult to decide, because we don't have precise information about the individual classes...

8.08% wow... seems like a lot of people want to play high priest.

Yeah lots of high priests but that being said there’s a surprisingly even spread across all base classes

Looks like Rogues are taking a hard lead now

BARDS ARE 4th PLACE POG!

Maciej

Dunir Paladin or Ren'Kai Cultist are my top choices currently, will probably also try a Highsword in alpha / betas.

TBF multiple answers are possible, and for example i voted for 3 different rogue classes, so this sheat doesnt really say a lot

Of course, with <70 people voting yeah it’s not precise by any means, if we had many more than your 3 votes to rogue would be counterbalanced by others but yeah early stage of any stats is always less detailed, none the less interesting to see.

I guess a big factor is that rogue and fighter are pretty close to each other. So everyone interested in a fighter might also be interested in a Rogue. All other archetypes (or base classes) are more unique in the job they have to fullfill
Tank -> Tank (lol)
Ranged Physical -> Ranger
Ranged Magical -> Mage/Summoner (i would still make a big distinction between them regarding playstyle)
Support Heal -> Cleric
Support Buff -> Bard (i guess Clerik/Bard might be a similar connection to Fighter/Rogue)
Melee DPS -> Rogue/Fighter

So more or less every playstyle has only one primary archetype that covers it. So having a high count in Rogue/Fighter votes isnt that surprising imo. Of course the secondary archetype also has its usage, but we dont know that much about the impact of it so i assume most people choose their class with the primary archetype in mind

The Cawckiest King

Falconer top pick for sure. Just hoping we get some choice in the type of bird (not just falcons, but eagles, owls, crows/ravens, etc)

The rest I'll have to playtest and see what I like, but generally the secondary ones I'm interested in are

Predator
Assassin
Beastmaster
Scout
Shadow Lord
Shadowblade
Wild Blade
Shadow Guardian
Strider
Hunter
Nightspell
Shadow Caster
Shadowmancer

(There is definitely a theme here)

JesterLo

I'll be a Soul Weaver (Bard/Cleric)

Any type of bard actually.

Nice visualization. Gives a better overview of the result.

-Karp

Vhaeyne

Picked "Soulbow"

Seen a lot of polls with the same question, but I don't think anyone took the time to list every class. Pretty cool.

That said, it made me think of a two question poll to do some time. The first question would be what primary class and the second question is what secondary class you plan to take.

Would be interesting to see overall what classes people intend to take for each slot. I suspect summoners would be popular as both a primary and a secondary.

Varyntheos

Ranger falconer for sure and maybe cleric

Hoguti

I will play cleric or tank as main. As far as what type of cleric/tank, I will need more information about classes before I decide on a secondary for each. Summoner options and Siren seem intriguing.

Hoguti

I wonder when more information on classes will be released. I’m hungry for details 🤤

Ironhope

A dps melee cleric.

So a Templar.
Or maybe a heavy armor & 2h Oracle.

If that just won't work (would be very disappointed if the class system is too rigid and a dps cleric just wans't possible, despite being possible in the other major mmos and being an important fantasy role), a Highsword might be it then.

Would also like to make a corrupt assassin (or something like that) griefing alt.

Jonta

May actually heal in this mmo , coming from a die hard dpser

Feet3

Looking forward to Battle Mage, hoping they are the users of lance, polearm, halbert, spear.

Tigly

If any weapon can be used, I'd like to play a Nightspell using a polearm/spear!

Sholer

Too much people wants to play necromancer, that's make me don't want to play necromancer.

RazThemun

Templar... Cultist..... or Shadow Disciple

Kovrm

Summoners, man. Interested in Brood Warden since I've never really played a tank. Shadowmancer is intriguing. Also interested in a spellhunter or predator.

That said, I'll have to really wait to see what info they release about classes and what not. I'm sure once people have more concrete info on classes that graph will likely change.
