What class should I play? (a decision tree)Follow

Here's for all the people that can't make up their mind what class they want to play. Write down the answers as you go.

(note: I threw this together VERY quickly, so don't take it as being in the least bit scientific)


1. When playing a fantasy game, I see myself as:
(a) a sword-wielding combat specialist
(b) a user of powerful magics
(c) something else

2. I prefer a character that:
(a) is wholesome and reputable
(b) is dark and sinister
(c) isn't clearly one way or the other

3. I want to play a character that:
(a) is totally cool and neat
(b) is unique and not trendy
(c) powerful in its own regard

4. I like a character that has:
(a) enough versatility to find different ways for dealing with different challenges
(b) a large degree of specialization, that should make me desirable in a group
(c) don't care

5. Healing, in a game, is:
(a) something I find important to be able to do
(b) something I'd rather leave to somebody else
(c) something I'd rather avoid needing

6. I prefer to protect myself by:
(a) wearing heavy armor and practicing defensive skills
(b) killing threats very quickly
(c) putting up barriers between me and my foes

7. When facing multiple opponents, the best tactic is to:
(a) take one out of the equation
(b) suck it up and fight off both at once
(c) find another alternative

8. Traveling by foot is
(a) something I can do very quickly
(b) for people without horses
(c) something I can deal with

9. When adventuring in a party, the group looks to me to:
(a) protect them from harm
(b) slaughter all who come near
(c) do a little of everything

10. My character does things:
(a) out of self-interest
(b) for the common good






For any class you were considering, see how many of the following matched:
Warrior ABC BBA BCAB
Paladin AAA AAA BBAB
Shaman CBC AAA CACB
Hunter CBA CCC AACA
Rogue ACC CBB ACBA
Druid CAA AAC CAAB
Priest BBB BAC CCAB
Warlock BCB CCC ABCA
Mage BBC BBB ACBA

If this test actually works, the class with the highest number of matches probably suits you best.

I realize some of those answers are arguable, and some questions aren't that great, but, um...deal!

C.A.C. A.C.C B.A.C B

I seem to be none of the above =/ But i guess if i really wanted to it would discribe druid. =D And i wana be that anyways.. so yes.. if you don't seem to fit any of these classes i would say you need to be a druid also.

Hee hee, this is actually surprisingly accurate *laughs* Here are the results for mine (my answers were 'bccaacabca'):

7 - Warlock
4 - Rogue
4 - Hunter
4 - Mage
4 - Shaman
3 - Druid
3 - Priest
2 - Paladin
1 - Warrior

Warlock I haven't looked at much, but the four jobs at 4 are the ones I'm currently deciding between. Good job!

Hehe, nice, I'm going to have to show this to my GF who'll be playing..so she can decide what to be^^

Haha, that's pretty good. Warrior was my highest, but only by one point. Most of my answers scored 4 for basically all of them. I would say that is accurate, considering I really have no preference at the moment as to which class I will become.

This isn't a pop quiz! It's safe to pick any answer you feel is correct, you don't have to guess. lol


Anyway, apparently I don't like any class more than 30%. That's the highest any of them got for me...just 3 matches. But, I love them all! o_0

I have made a working excel spreadsheet if someone wants to host it. Please drop me a line by email I think this is a great quiz, and the excel spreadsheet should make it quick!

Thanks
