RPG classes?

In RPG's with a class/ job system, how do you usually make a prty? What kind of classes do you like to use? In DQIX, my party consists of a Minstrel, Gladiator, Thief and Martial Artist. I really like fighting parties, but thieves are always cool, so I make room for them.

What kind of parties do you usually make?

Please use the General Games forum for this type of thread.

A healer for sure. Not really a SW topic.SaltyMeatballs

Yeah maybe. At least it will get responses here. Besides at least a thirdof the topics here have nothing to do with System Wars.

I like a balanced party.

In SP I like to play as a rogue and in MP a healer.

Depends on the races/alignments/slots available but it's usually like:

Warrior - Dwarf - Neutral

Priest - Human - Good/Lawful Good

Thief - Gnome - Neutral

Mage - Elf - Neutral

A balanced party. 1 healer, one caster, the others are physical damage dealers.siLVURcross

I usually take the same route, with my preference to play the caster mage as my main character. Though in DA2 I found that having 3 mages, one healer and two casters with powerful AOE spells could be very effective in combat. Then needing one rogue to disarm traps and open chests, as well as being handy with their speedy damage dealing style.

I'm using 2 warriors, a rogue, and a healer/magic caster in Dragon Age 2 right now.

Depends on the boss fight and how big the party.

Usually have one main tank and an off-tank. Then a couple of healers and the rest DPS for a party size of 10.

Some fights though especially 25 man might need more tanks or specialised tactics maybe using a specific class to attract threat such as a ranged class to keep the enemy at range like a warlock casting a high-threat spell constantly to build threat.

I prefer to go for a more classic party build.

Fey Spirit Bear God

Spirit Shaman

Wizard/Red Wizard

Cleric

The best classes are rangers (traps/pets), paladins (tank/healer), elementalists (elemental damage) , and ninja/monk (dps melee).

I usually go for 1 paladin and 2 ninjas/monks for small parties.

For larger parties, i go with lots of paladins, elementists, ninjas/monks, and only a few rangers just for setting traps.

MOTB? :P

Hmmm, I would have 5 clerics (with different domain) and 1 wizard. Pretty much does everything. (D&D 3.x edition only)

Well I normally play as warriors since I like hulk smashing everything without getting hulk smashed myself. I also take caster/healer/rogue/ranged physical damage.

Tank, ranged/quick melee, support & magic.
