Monk was my first.

Every MMORPG I've played, the healers were always in high demand, and I wanted to have an easy time getting groups to learn the ropes.

I've played all the classes but the one I always come back to is the monk. Everybody needs healing.

I <3 warriors. Everyone needs someone to crush your enemies, see them driven before you and hear the lamentations of their women/men (making Conan more PC).

I'm back from holiday visits in the frozen north (New England USA). Before we all get caught up in the Winterfest finale, I'd like to thank everyone who contributed to this poll (which closes on January 1st).

Many people were surprised by the answers (including me) as no one expected mesmers to beat out monks or rangers to be so popular.

Ranger/Necro For me. 'Course now he's a beastmaster and can't spare any slots for another profession...

Started a ranger in Nightfall just to see but, ummmm she got deleted due to extreme dissatisfaction with the rubbish look of the armour.

I don't remember if my Necro was my very first character or not. It's been over a year and a half since I started playing. Anyway, I made her as a N/Mo, because I enjoyed the duality of those two professions. I'm weird that way.

I started off as a monk very first actually played class but wound up falling for warriors and pushed my monk to the side.

I made a Ranger on release, and I am still playing it. Can't get enough of it.

My first was a R/N. Being up close slashing away at stuff just isn't my thing.

Warrior! Mainly because Warriors usually tend to have a rather wide range of uses and durability, which turned out to be true Though now I'm kinda of attracted to both the Assassin and Dervish.

Elem, because I thought they looked kickass in one of the GW preview videos on Gamespot , Monk secondary because I was used to having healing magic in other RPGs (FF etc.)

Necro, I planned it out ages before getting the game, as I waited for a new top of the range computer to come my way, controlling minions sounded insanely fun, I was kind of let down, and later slowed down on my necro, but he eventually became my favorite again, and I grew to love being an MM, and now every other role that necromancers can play.

Female warrior - bless her she taught me well - this is my first rpg/mmo. She taught me that running round with a big axe is sooooooooooo much fun and great stress relief

I deleted her about 4 weeks ago. I'd left her at Aurora Glide(?) because I built another warrior not long after, who I still have and will never delete.
