Hardest class to play in a game

[NC3]

I'm pretty useless as a TF2 spy. Or Demoman for some reason.

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

RPGs...Mages. They require careful management of MP and often die in one or two hits.

For shooters, likely close range combatants. Getting in close with a shotgun is kinda hard when your opponent can kill you from 4x the range.

I disagree. I say Priests are harder. Not only do they need the careful MP management, but they also have sucky attack powers as well.

Assuming this game has priests. Like WoW. ^^ If not then Ill agree with you.

For me, anything sneaky. I get bored and want to pop around the corner and kill the enemies rather than waiting and picking them off.

Just wait around the side of a building and play pika-boo with a shotgun. Works a charm for me

Any RPG healer purists. They go down in no time flat and they have piss poor firepower to offer VS anything not undead/demonic/etc.

Hey, I don't play MMOs, and most single player RPGs don't have a class like the priest. But yeah, healers have it rough. Who heals you, huh? Who heals you when you're low on MP after healing your team?

 

[Jeronus]

Warrrior in WoW. Everyone in the battleground can take down a warrior. Warlocks and Mages can take you down without even getting scratched. Don't even get me started on Rogues. Hunters use their pets to keep us at bay while they pick us off and Paladins can heal themselves no matter how hard we hit. I stopped playing before the Death Knight class was added but I am pretty sure they can kick a Warrior's ass too. Don't believe me. How many warriors do you see at the top of the battleground results screen?

Didnt you just contradict yourself? I'd find waiting with a shotgun fairly boring. =]

 

[Lios]

Sniping with an unsilenced weapon against highly trained enemies in an environment where you have to keep moving in order to not be killed or captured while also moving as stealthily as possible and taking out as many enemy officers as possible.


Wait that's that actual role of a real life sniper. I've yet to see it in a game.

The easiest for me however is CQB assault style classes. Hand me a shotgun and a submachine gun, some heavy armor, and throw me in the fight.

Yep. That's called camping, and is frowned upon. I don't mind it personally, but its so boring to wait. But you are at a distinct range disadvantage if you actively seek targets in open areas. So boring to wait...must move around...I play Pyro in TF2, so I have to get REALLY close.

It's all good if I cant see the enemy. But if I can see them and know they are close then I just want to rush.
I'm weird like that.

I prefer the term shotgun pika-boo. Sounds better than camping.
Imagine this:
"What are you doing?"
"Camping"
*Insert rage*

"What are you doing?"
"Playing pika-boo. With shotguns."
*laughter and move on*

 

[DragonChi]

Paladin in D2

 

[Corpse XxX]

The Scout in TF2 is the hardest class ever, the only class in that game were i cannot get more kills than deaths..

And i really want that frikkin scout update, annoys the living day lights out of me..

 

[S.H.A.R.P.]

The bard or warlock, I never managed to get them working properly.

If we're talking WoW, try a non-multiboxing elemental shaman in PvP.

We're made of papier maché and failure.

Edit: Some of the only real class-based games I've played are Diablo and WoW, and in Diablo I only ever played as a Necromancer, and no classes in WoW are particularly "hard" to play, overall, though some have tendencies to do slightly worse at some parts, since the classes are still pathetically unbalanced, I wouldn't want to name my "hardest class to play"

 

[Fruitloops89]

For me...
Shooters- I can not play a sniper to save my life, I would much rather hide around the corner with a shoty and unload on the poor bastard to turn the corner or be the guy charging towards the fray nades in on hand rifle in the other
MMOs/Online RPGS/Some Shooters case- Medic. period.
And just because, Diablo 2- I can't stand playing as a Nercromancer. You guys are dandy and all but I will stick to my Sorceress/Druid/Barbarian classes

A friend of mine Wrecks havoc with shotgun and longjump in Half Life, it's like he does flying head-kicks.

I'll go with Anti-tank in BF2
It takes up to 3 rockets to kill a tank, four if it's driven by an engineer it's next to impossible to hit choppers, and insane if you hit a flying plane. and i don't like their primary weapon

 

[Damien the Pigeon]

Dude, when I played Guild Wars, healing was so hard for me! MP was extremely limited, and in some cases, I was responsible for 7 people who were all being attacked. There was literally nothing I could do, and yet I would get blamed if people died.

It depends on what level you are. At low level, yes, mages are piss-poor and will die very easily, but at high levels, it's warriors who have the problems. By that stage, mages can be absurdly powerful and wipe out all but the most powerful warriors before they can even get close enough to attack.

Hah. Well, the way I see it, scouts weren't really meant to get all the kills. They're almost on par with spy in just seeing what the enemy is up to, till you run into a sentry. That said, I rock pretty hard with a scout. Double-jumping ftw.

Also, what update?
