In some MMORPG, on the character creation screen, there is a difficulty level beside the class archetype/role and description.
LOTRO does that for example.
The difficulty level is either easy, medium or hard.
So I was thinking, if you guys wanted to rate the classes of AoR, what levels of difficulty would you put on each classes?
Imo, these ranks of difficulty are mainly determined by the class mechanic.
For example, about the destro tanks, I would say:
Chosen: easy.
Black Ork: medium.
Blackguard: hard.

I'd actually say chosen has a higher skill rating than BO.

Why even play it 100% backline, the healingoutput is much, much higher when you hybrid it, you never run out of SE and you got a AoE flash heal on the move.
Playing it safe is for noobs. I can agree on that part,

Heck yeah. RELEASE YOUR BEAST! Although I'm not convinced those that only step up to use the pathetic AoE swipe are in fact releasing the beast. (not saying you)

easy: Chosen
manageable: BO
where-the-hell-do-I-bind-all-my-abilities: BG
amazing-for-simply-existing: Mara
challenging: Choppa
unwelcome: Witch Elf
babytier: DoK
easy: zealot
moderate: shaman
newbie friendly: SH
basic skills required: sorc
slightly challenging: Magus
Have to agree on this, having played a SW, WL, SM and AM on live and here, I must say that BG is the most challenging. All the other classes I have played I could easily map my abilities on two bars, with BG I struggle on three bars and feel like I can't afford to drop any of them as they are all useful. The drawback of a BG is that he's not as useful as a BO or Chosen in a WB setting, but he's certainly more challenging.
