>>729149421
You're vanilla? I like to play Fighter. I'm glad modern RPGs have made Wizards cooler, so I don't always have to be a Fighter.
Look at BG3, for example. The default Fighter is Lae'zel and the default Wizard is Gale. It made me actually try Wizard for once, and it's not bad at all.

a warrior, it doesn't get more based than that. It does war.

Shadow Priest from TBC/Wrath era. I never saw a class like this in any other game

>>729149252
Barbarian if the game lets me unga-bunga in combat, dialogue and puzzles.
Rogue if it’s a fake rpg but where stealth is a viable option.
Wizard (preferably warlock) for anything else

Basically any rpg that forces you to follow a specific narrative instead of making your own choice (eg Skyrim)

In theory Dragoon. Monster hunting knight that can jump high designed to fight big boss monsters. But it's usually not implemented as well as it could be.

Necromancer if not turn-based and brawler if turn-based

>>729149252
In vidya, almost always Wizard just because it tends to be the most mechanically and visually interesting.

On actual table top I like playing Rogues as long as the DM isn't just dumping buckets of enemies on the party every 20 minutes and we actually do proper dungeon crawling.

Fighter mains are contrarians, Wizard mains are vanilla.
>>
>>729153334
Give Dragoon moves that are strong against bosses but weak against mobs and multi-enemies. Bonuses against weakness exploits or forcing a weakness for instance, but give him now AoE skills or make jump very strong but random so it's not practical against mobs.
>>
>>729149252
Monk or Fighter/Barbarian most of the time. Paladin/Cleric if the setting is fighting a evil/demonic force; just feels right. I would love Druid but I never found a game that does it right. Druid always feel limited in choices; you can be a Bear or a Mouse (it's always fucking bears) and feels like a Green Healer too often but having nature on your side should be OP if played right.
>>
>>729153576
Jump scales with enemy height physically. Flying enemies are forced to the ground and gain added weakness to earth attacks when they get jumped. Meanwhile ground based mooks that are relatively short take relatively low damage from jump.
>>
>>729151663
Games where its done properly?
I've seen people say the Necromancer in ToME is pretty good

Barbarian/artificer multiclass.
But a more real answer would be mages.

Any magic user. The more freedom with spells the better

High-charisma blaster mage.

rouge
spellblade
or anything unique like that
also the nobody class

A skill monkey. I want to talk people down when I need to, pass a check I want to pass, open a chest good loot, cast a spell I need to cast.
Combat performance is secondary. Usually that means some kind of charisma caster hybrid.

Yes. That's right DM.
Make that work.

Charisma character that uses learned tunes to grant buffs to allies and charm enemies. Typically can use swords to a decent extent, so it's basically a party buff spell sword.
>>
If it's multiplayer, priest. I'm one of nature's healsluts.
If it's single player, necromancer. I like summoning minions.
Basically I like standing in the back and being a sexy cheerleader while others do the fighting for me.

Healtank / Cleric, since it means I can survive and can keep other party members alive. Generally a tank character with some healing capabilities is more useful than a mainline healer that can't take a hit, because the tank can heal characters outside battle if needed, but it largely depends on the game.

Cryomancer / Ice Mage is pretty fun as well, especially if it's a game where you can reliably avoid getting attacked and when ice magic has secondary effects.

>>729153079
Spoony hasn't been relevant for decades. Don't feel say that modern /v/ doesn't know who that is anymore.

I like Gish but leaning more to the ones that buff themselves to hit harder.

Yeah, unfortunately. Every show feels like it's written by a group of people who've never met a human being before. Characters talk in Twitter threads, the plots are just recycled fanfics of better shows, and every third scene is a slow zoom while someone has a breakdown because "trauma." It's like AI wrote it-and not the cool kind that argues about paladins and necromancers with /v/.

Not watched the cartoon but in the campaign she is played by marisha who can be very retarded, god the kraken fight was the stuff of nightmares, and likes to over act serious speeches and a bit of main character syndrome but then also breaks character by doing stuff like killing a prisoner as a failed joke.

Freya's the only Final Fantasy Dragoon that feels like a complete unit to me. Kain worked in the context of FFIV being your one guaranteed source of unga bunga damage, with Jump having a risk-reward factor sine Kain was one of the only two characters in your party that could actually take a hit, and you were potentially putting Edge and the girls in danger for more damage. But Jump alone doesn't make a class work, as we saw in FFV and Tactics.

Freya has a lot of decent support options and spells to use. Jump theoretically goes back to risk-reward since you're losing out on Freya's spells while she's airborne, but outside of Trance Jump feels underpowered in IX, especially compared to shit like Dragon's Crest. There's room to improve, but I wish we got more Freya Dragoons in FF than Kain Dragoons.
