Well, after a long internal struggle over playing maurader or magus, I have come to the conclusion that I'm gonna go magus (assuming nothing drastic changes)
Figured I would find out who else is going same class and what thoughts people have on it.

Ask me about 30 days before launch... And again after I finally get to play some sort of beta if I haven't before then, and then I'll FINALLY be able to tell you what I'm playing.

Magus. I've always been the ranged caster in any RPG I've played. That even goes back to my AD&D days.

However, I most likely will roll a Black Gaurd when Akilleys gets back from his deployment in Iraq to help him level. I play Dark Elves tabletop and my fondness of the Durichii just barely overrides my need to roll another caster alt.

All the ways you wish you could be, that's me. I look like you wanna look, I fuck like you wanna fuck, I am smart, capable, and most importantly, I am free in all the ways that you are not.

Just make sure you ARE going to enjoy Ranged DPS gameplay. I learned over the course of 3 years on WoW, which was my FIRST mmo...that I could NOT play as a ranged dps class. It had to be melee dps, and only melee dps. In that way...the only classes I ever got above lvl 35 was a paladin, 4 rogues, and 2 warriors. Two years into the game, I rerolled a ranged dps guy for a final test...got to level 34 on a warlock and nearly died from unenjoyable gameplay.

Marauder = Melee

Magus = Ranged

Just be sure, don't regret your decision :)

I'll either be playing Magus or Black Guard. I digg the Magus is because it seems it has abilities to kite + immunties to short bursts of physical damage. If the Black Guard plays as badass as the ONE picture looks then I'll be into it. I've played both realms of dps (ranged/melee) and I enjoyed aspects of both. We'll have to see when WAR comes out how I feel about each.

> I mostly enjoy off-specing but these are what i raided with: 60 resto druid( i know not offspec at all...) 60 enhancement shammy. 70 fury/ms warrior, 70 shadownuke warlock, of course all these builds translated into pvp very well.

Shadowbolt spam is not off spec for raiding. 99% of locks are 0/21/40 post Anetheron.
And I don't see how it translates well into pvp. The only spec that includes any remote shadowbolt spec spamming in pvp is 7/43/11.

As for the question. I was originally going magus, but i'm considering sorc or a healer now. Healer so I can healbot Sephs causing him to become even better than everyone else.

i would most likely go for magus or black knight, but it would all depend on how the character feels like, when moving around. thats why i chose undead and couldnt stand being a troll for a second

I'm sure you meant black guard since black knights are dead knights who have be risen by necromancy to serve a Vampire or Necromancer
