what job is not boring to play and WHY?
Sniper, Hunter, Rogue & Stalker.
I don't need a reason.
Creator... power house char. the mats for the bottles aren't hard to get also, especially if people sell fabrics. imo.
i find all classes get boring after you play them for long enough.....
its more fun if you have more then one and alternate the amount of time you play on each for
JJJ,
Of course if you play the same class over and over it gets boring. It's like that in every game.
And if you want my reason for Sniper, stalker, rogue & hunter. And not Dancer/Gypsy. I like range, I like bows. I dislike dancers and gyps.
Professor, in guild war you always got a job to do, whether it be to exchange sp counts, stone curse, web, or heaven's drive spot or dispel...you always will be pressing buttons in guild wars.
Combo Monks.
high priest, because I love to buff people :D
GS, cause ppl seem to hate them a lot and it would give you a challenge.
Oh sure, don't add GS to the list cause they "suck". >_>
Support prof, kind of a high learning curve if you're sizing up vs the more advanced PvP players.
I'm going to have to go with High Wizard (out of your poll choices above), because I just never get tired of causing massive, earth-shattering magical catastrophes that tear the cosmos asunder.
Lord of Vermillion is rawr.
It really depends on you, not our opinion, just play whatever you like. I like sniper and high wizard, fun classes to play.
for me, a whitesmith is better, because u always have something to do, in Woe, Mobing, or in PvP.
U can be a full atack and a good supporting char same time, killinkg with CT anything (only for low rates xD)
tanks, or full agi chars is the same, for that exist ice pick, combat knife, or another bunch of weapons
Stalker because it's the most diverse class out there with many builds all thanks to the plagiarism. Professors are pretty fun too. Though, the GM class tops them all.
Paladin are fun cuz u could be good in pvp woe and pvm if u are SC pally (Sheild Chain) also ur like a big tank ;)
I personally think that paladins are the best class to play with. Theres so many combinations of gears and build that can beat any class out there. From sacrifice/tanking to spellcaster pally to sheild chain build, it never gets boring. Smiting the heck outta people in pvp always gives me a chuckle. And since swordsmen have the widest variety of gears to use that also a bonus :P
taekwons -> TK rankers only -> because they have TK missions to ward off those times in RO (as in life) when you feel like don't know what to do next... Especially if the TK ranker list is active in your server...
-w-
Gunslingers
Four types of weaponry. (Revolvers *<3*, Rifles, Shotguns, and Gatlings *<3*)
Many, many skills that are quite varied. (Ranging from defense to pure damage output)
Avatar looks smexy ;D
Just a challenge to play, but once you get it down. Watch out.
It really depends on ur playing style if u like damege, helping ppl, killing massive agro mobs w/ a 90int gc or just sitting down talking its mostly a personal opinion
I did pick the HP ;D since they r always being bother by ppl "Can I have Heal Pls?" So its kind not-so-boring
If you can reset, I would say Stalker due to its versatility.
Lord Knight. Paladins are meh and usually mediocre, whether in LR, MR, HR, and SHR. Lord Knights have the largest HP multiplier, Atk Modifiers, and a bunch of other stuff. Paladins are easy to play (since I forte Swordsman classes), but limits the true abilities of the swordsman class.
Lord Knights are challenging, sometimes overpowering if you know how to play them.

Both serve very different roles (Tank/Devoter and Tank/Annoyer), so I don't see how you would compare them this way.
Especially because this thread is about what is fun to play and not what is overpowering.
P.S. Knights suck

I once tried that... for five minutes. Then I ran and never came back.
What, for me Paladins are boring. You just stand there like a wall and basically miss all the action. I was once a Paladin (tried it in different rates), and the gameplay isn't that different. LK's can be a tank too, and deal way more damage than a Paladin. Aside from the fact that Paladins have crappy damage compared to knights, all of its limited 2nd job offense skills are neutral.
Does that answer your "why is this reply in this thread" question? I get bored of paladins and did not get bored of knights. Playing LK is fun and not boring for me.
Enjoy your Sinx since its the only class you know ;P
http://vimeo.com/1434272 (http://vimeo.com/1434272)
Now tell me Paladins can't be fun O.o (Watch in HD and fullscreen)
(almost) every class can be played for fun if you try. It's more a matter of personal preference.
I like SinX, for the variety of tactics....if you are not noob.

Fix'd
Perma-novice...because Play-Dead never gets old <3...and you get more random hugs from players (not the creepy stalker type like you get when you are say...a dancer </3)
You mean super-novvie right? :p
I think scholar would be difficult to get bored with, atleast for me. Whether you're in a party or solo it's always so much that you have to do.
GS...
It thrills me to battle with people using a character that many people think of as an underdog..../gg

GUNSLINGER! HANDS DOWN!
GS and SN are certainly the most underrated classes, so it's great fun to make people go 'wth' using them.
I'd vote high priest. You've always got something to do when supporting a party. Plus people in towns love you for your buffs. (and heals for servers without a healer npc)
In a PVP sense, I'd vote stalker hands down. I find it hilarious to single handly screw over a guild in WoE who chose not to FCP themselves beforehand.
only bad guilds let a stalker strip more than one person.
against a proper guild, you'd probably die as soon as they saw your location.

you can't just easily kill a stalker if faced with an evenly numbered guild unless they're careless of asura/bragi'ed AD or linked sinx, which decent stalkers always watch out for. there's a good reason 100 vit stalkers are the number 1 EC class on official servers. regularly watching WoE videos from euro/iro/sometimes kro, stalkers rarely go down first, and neither are they a priority target (#1 scholars!). In kro fcp for the whole guild is common still, but on the other official servers its fallen out of fashion lately.
Quote from: horo on May 01, 2009, 04:29 PM
(#1 scholars!)
you can say that again XD.
almost ALWAYS priority 1 on the scholars. You will be blown away if you don't.
Actually it's priority EC-er most of the times, if you've managed to identify him/her.
Single clowns come a close second, especially in low pop servers. Then profs.
How can you get bored of this? ;D

On a 99/70, a good biochemist should never be standing still. You're either planting, being annoying, ADing, or hiding.
Ditto with Professor. There's always something you could be doing.

Assuming rates on your particular server aren't ridiculously high, and assuming the average player doesn't spend 22/7 hours hunting for stuff, sets are not the most friendly consumables. During my days, I burned on average around 400-500 per WoE (1.5 hour long on a moderately populated server, so around ...20-50 man large battles), and I'm fairly miserly as it goes.
I agree that if your entire guild revolves around you and actually tries to get you as much as you need, then sitting still and ADing sounds like a pretty good idea. But I doubt that'll happen for the majority of cases. Ideally speaking you should be in bragi, devo'd, and pampered and cared for. That's rarely the case, especially on smaller servers. You're also pretty attractive as a target.
I love playing my High priest, because no matter what you skill them as they have to be kept alive based on their heals for the most part.
Course my favorite time when then was when you used to be able to stack Sanctuary and ME.
High Priests have probably the biggest variety in skill builds certainly, and it's really interesting how much PvM builds differ from MvP builds and WoE builds.
From experience, Lord Knight is the most fun class to play. Naturally, Lord Knight, when played correctly, has the most potential to be more aggressive than any other class in RO hands down. It's really fun seeing FS Profs and VIT/DEX Priests cringing when you're constantly harassing them. Sure, you won't score as many kills as most other classes, but when played right, a Lord Knight is arguably one of the funnest classes to play.
LK is amazing and one of the classes I, too, am in love with, because of videos like >this (http://zoome.jp/yokopo/diary/51/) and >that (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2cYUGatziDM&feature=channel_page) /lv

Wow, those are absolutely ridiculous. It's too bad they've got such limited uses, but it's still pretty awesome.
I love playing Stalker, Lord Knight, and Professor. =D They are fun jobs, although slightly contradicting with one another. I like Stalker for its speed, Lord Knight for its damage, and Professor for it will always have something to do in WoE. I often got recruitment requests from various guilds when I lurk in towns. XD Same goes for Stalker, but Professor got more attention. =3 However, I still think Stalker is the best cause it can be used for fast farming as well, especially with bows.

Snipers are better than Bow Stalkers,
BB Stalkers can be very fun, strip then BB the heck out of an enemy.
Sniper is the worst rebirth class in the game!
Quote from: horo on May 09, 2009, 05:34 AM

They are not that bad
Even though Snipers are an easy levelling class they can dish out some pretty fast DPS at long range, they can achieve 185+ ASPD and 170 Dex easly, not to mention being able to use Quad Liberation and Elements at the same time without any help, even though, they tend to majorly suck at pvp due to the reductions
I still have other faves though, mainly wizard
I don't think Snipers are bad. =o I actually adore playing one as well, but only for farming and arrow crafting. I use Stalkers more for PvP and WoE-ing. I'm pretty bad with setting up the traps. =/ That's why I never played it for PvP and WoE. However, Sniper is not the worst trans class.
I didn't say they were bad, I said they were the worst :P The only contender would be Whitesmith, but they have a higher damage output and are more versatile and useful in WoE.
Mediocre damage output in PvM and completely, absolutely worthless in WoE compared to any other rebirth class. They're fine to farm on private servers with @autoloot (which is a very broken command btw), but that's it. Decent to kill the half dozen relevant ghost enemies in the game, but useless on any serious map like Biolabs 3 or at any other high-level MVP.
Trapping is SO useful in WoE :X
And of course Sharphooting under Poem.
Trapping was really useful about 6 years ago :x
Still useful now -_- even if not as much.

Blame Gravity on nerfing snipers to hell, don't get your hopes up for Renewal about traps, look at the description for Royal Guard if you doubt it
To me, Snipers are fun. I love the trapping and the fact that you can crit-lock in 255/120 servers. Profs aren't bad too. I love playing Profs in 99/70 servers.

Profs are epic fun to Hocus Pocus random things, if you are mean than you can try doing this on a novice-filled area *Evil Laugh*, but of course, it tends to cost some zeny due to yellow gems =/

Haha. Someone did this in Payon dungeon 1 once when I was leveling as a newbie D: It was a Dark Lord >_>
I've never fancied melee classes much. When I played a melee class, it was a sinx who emp breaks. And I made that char just because no one else in the guild was a breaker >_>
I like dancers, personally. XD
They look pretty, and when I get bored, I jump into Pront and rock out with my dances. ;D
... I still play them like a knight, though. *hits ranged chars on the nose with a rolled up newspaper*
No Gypsy option? Blasphemy! D:
Dancer/Gypsy for me. No real solid reason. I just love archery and the class.
Gypsys and Dancers are highly underrated classes, they get overshadowed by Poem of Bragi!

Dancers used to be useful pre-trans, where there was no SP Slave scholar in the precast and only "Service for You" available for the problem, now, it is only used for the bonus for GFist
Aye.
Service can still be useful for Champs and the such in Thors. Gives that extra SP to OHKO Kasas.
These days, I'm on a Dex+Int-ish+Flee build, and get invited to Nameless as a Banshee killer, sadly. XD
Anything that can own in PVP is a good class

Mohawk>All ,LMAO
Chest Hair is nice skill to play with. GET ENTANGLED.
I'd say Stalkers. Other classes are more one-skilled based (except for the magic classes of course). Stalkers could be melee and/or magic. I love strip and plagiarism. Just need to get used to em, and you could pwn in PvP as well.
I would say Clown. Tarot Card never gets boring, if it's not nerfed. :P
WoE linker
hardest class to play
I don't think there are any good soul linkers yet proving it's difficulty
or prime clown, being the beating heart of a guild is always challenging, sadly you don't see them a lot on pservers
High priest FTW ;p
I've grown to realized that playing the job as a Hydra is the best way to not get bored.
Creator and Stalker.
Creator: Own PvP with just Acid Demonstration is hilarious, never get bored(Except when you have to lvl up or collect items =S) But whatever, for me, is the best JOB EVER!
Stalker: One simple reason, Plagiarism.
First post in the forum ^^
I love playing ranged classes.
Snipers, stalkers, gunslingers...
Snipers: I never get bored of this class. Its fun to level up, fun to PvP, etc. I just love them.
Stalkers: Full strip ftw >:O! (I use them to annoy people o:)
Gunslingers: I love how everyone hates them.
Gypsies in Bragi are kind of insane with their Dazzler spam. I guess.
As for me... I'd guess melee Stalkers or Professors. I think I like ctrl+clicking stuff to death, and the more autocasts I have the better. Although I have never really dedicated myself to a Hindsight Prof... I still find them really interesting.
Stalker and Champion.
I find Champions and snipers great. All around class. :o
Maybe Sinx n champion to me not borin to play..cuz its easy to play XD..
FS Prof.
