I had a few characters with them. The EQ Warrior was exceedingly dull - I'm so glad MMOs since then have had to the common sense to give melee classes interesting attacks and abilities. Only being able to Taunt and Kick was utterly frustrating. As for WoW Priests. I actually don't mind soloing with Shadow or PvPing with Disc but I've decided that healing is not for me :) @SmackenDahed

I remember NYAA! Not Your Average Adventurers :) I was in Prime Syndicate but left to head over to Final Door. I'd have to agree with the Warrior in EQ1. Very dull. Compared to the hybrid tanks they didn't have as easy a time pulling or holding agro (until some changes were made). /shieldother (or whatever it was) was sort of gimp too. What kind of bone was that? I hated the WoW Priest. Soloing with it was a pain and most people only wanted to solo. Tack on any DPS class and you could crank out the quests easily enough, but solo? You had to go Shadow. :( Hey cool! I remember NYAA! Not Your Average Adventurers :) I was in Prime Syndicate but left to head over to Final Door.

After arenaing all through Season 1 and 2 as a Disc Priest (before the Disc changes), I think I hate rogues more than any MMO class I've ever experienced. And knowing a few people in real life who play rogues makes me generalize the entire class into a pretty generic adrenaline junkie/d-bag stereotype which I know isn't entirely true, but helps feed the irrational disdain. Playing as: SWG Dancer/Entertainer/Musician. Oh, how my hologrind was tedious. It only took me around 8 days of constant unattended macroing and running looped macros to max out all of those profession trees. It was so terrible. I actually made some good connections in the game and quite a bit of money for the tips, but the mindlessness of those professions makes them by far my most hated of any MMO "classes" I've ever played.

For me, it's the opposite. I hate feeling like I'm not directly contributing to the party in some way, and that's the sense I get whenever I try to play a controller. I know debuffing, holding, and snaring are important in that game, but it's still difficult to comprehend. If I'm not pewpewing or healing, I have trouble feeling valuable.
