I know I play a brigand. Brigands are a joke to play, but then again on the other side of it I've seen people speak of where brigands parse and it's 2/3 of my dps. Getting that extra third is what makes you a good player.

For the class that seems hardest to master, I'd say it's assassin and ranger. I've seen zonewide parses for assassins where they're killer dps. I've seen zonewides where they suck. It seems like it takes more skill to play the class to it's potential. Healers can be hard to master too. There's a world of difference between a great healer and a shit one.

sometimes the dps difference is just group set-up and buffs.

rangers are easy to play

I would say its all pretty much situational... but I would says druids are the easiest healers to play.
I've tried all healing classes some longer than others but heres my opinion from hardest to easiest
1)Defiler
2)Mystic
3)Inquiz
4)Templar
5)Warden
6)Fury

I believe the best way to determine an approximate order of class difficulty is to have everyone rank their top8 easiest and top8 hardest classes to play. Then just compare the results and see where we end up. I say top8 because that would give us the upper 3rd and the lower 3rd of easiest/hardest classes. Leaving the middle 3rd (which is very hard to distinguish) open to discussion. That being said please don't fall under the impression that I am saying any class is *hard* to play. I'm merely saying some classes require more focus, awareness, etc. then other classes.

Seeing as I started this post I'll go ahead and jump in with my top8

Top 8 easiest:
1. Brigand
2. Troubador
3. Dirge
4. Templar
5. Mystic
6. Guardian
7. Inquisitor
8. Illusionist

Top 8 hardest:
1. Assassin
2. Ranger
3. Warlock
4. Swashbuckler
5. Wizard
6. Paladin
7. Coercor
8. Shadowknight

This leaves my *middle of the pack* classes being Warden, Fury, Defiler, Conjuror, Necromancer, Monk, Bruiser, Berserker.

Wow!! You've played 16 classes to lvl 70 just to figure out which one is the easiest? Nice work!

I'm wondering why people like you always have to post even if they have nothing to say.

How can you know such about all these classes? Please explain this to me. I can say that at least 90% of players don't know how my class is played an what my class does. I don't care about that. Most important to me is that my class is fun to play and challenging when you try to get the maximum out of it. I think this is the same with other classes.

A player that understands the game mechanics should be able to play any class after some time. Players that don't understand it cannot be good players even if they play a class that you think is "easy to play". You need experience to play a class good. The longer you play it the better you get.

You think the Brigand is the easiest class to play? You must be the best briga then.

Tell me why the Illu is between the Inqui and the the Warden. I don't know how easy Inqui and Warden are playable but you will explain it to me with arguments and knowledge of these classes I bet.

It's all very situational. However, I don't know how Assassin could ever be the hardest class to play.

Ever played an Inquisitor. Wow, it is so sad how easy it is. You have 3 or 4 debuffs that are very easy to keep on.

Single target small heal
Single target big heal
Single target combat heal
group combat heal
group heal

Fanatacism and Fast cast aa require no skill.

Verdict although important isnt hard to hit on a mob at 2%.

And OMFG

Put your power buff/spell on a rouge .(swash for me) and jesus you never run out of power . literally , you sit there watching you power go down a little from casting everything you have then wach it pop back up x4 with the swash going crazy.

Such an easy class

This sounds like someone with a cheap 2 boxin non raiding alt Inq or someone who has never had the privilage of playing with a real Inq. Very few world wide that are worth a shit and know their place in a proper raid. Don't knock a class you haven't seen been played correctly in a raid or group.

Monk/Bruiser Easyist by far hand's down.

Illusionist I'd say is second, I made one for grouping but I quickly learnt they were the most underated class in a game I'v ever heard about then botherd to play.

Assassin's hhhmmmm Soloing name's is fucking hard that's for sure eithen with majority of gear at t7 fabled and 50% master 1s (rest adept3) & yeh I know no 1 is ment to beable to solo name's but lol.....95% of My guild and the othere raiding guild's seem to beable too just fine. (the shity geard wizzys around bonemire soloing name's piss me off >.<)

I'm still a firm beliver that if Assassin's & Ranger's could apply there own Poisen's and Summon there own arrow's (from lvl 1!) that theyd have a fighting chance with the othere class's. Exsample Saveing up 30p for a M1 on a monk will be X2 faster due too they are not wasteing 50% of there fund's of shit thats NEEDED. Yeh I know I'm a broken record when it come's to this subject.....But Fuck Me Dead...No Wounder Assassin's & Ranger's are the most vocal about there class.

allso by default it's eithen longer due to wearing metal...metal's like X3-X4 the cost of leather >.< & it seem's the leather user's (eithen druids) can take a hell lot more of a beating. /sigh
