page 1 of 3

I'm interested to know. What kind of RPG character(s) do you like? Knight? Black Mage? White Mage? Thief?...what will it be? Also is there a class name for characters like Khimari (Final Fantasy X) and Quistis Trepe (Final Fantasy VIII) who specialize in stealing enemy skills?

Anyhow those classes I named are just a few examples, feel free to name a class that I haven't listed. Also feel free to name your favorite RPG character of your favorite class as well. Have fun!

Um... I generally like White Mage. XD Either that or Thieves. But I don't play RPGs very often, so I suppose it doesn't really matter. :) Still, nothing quite beats the fun of casting magic.

Summoner Calculator of Final Fantasy Tactic...
The idea of sending Holy Spell or any kind of spell like this on anyone with no charge time and mana cost IS really interesting...

Hmm.... that's a tough question.... As soon as I saw the subject, I thought, "Fighter/Warrior." But I guess you're more referring to classes in RPGs like the Final Fantasy series, sooooooo.....

THIEF! I love stealing! ffvi(ffiii for all those who have the US version) was the first RPG I ever played. My high school buddy actually had the ffiii SNES cartridge. Can't find that thing anywhere nowadays. Anyway....I got hooked on thieves for obvious reasons.

Actually classes from any RPG is okay, though if there are any classes outside of the Final Fantasy games please do enlighten me. I don't own that many RPGs and very few of them have anything different from the FF series as far as classes go. Here is what I own: Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy viii, Lunar: Silver Star Story, Lunar 2: Eternal Blue, Chrono Trigger (the SNES ver. btw), Chrono Cross, Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy X-2, Kingdom Hearts, Xenosaga Episode 1: Der Wille zur Macht, and Xenogears. So basically all of my games either have the same types of character classes or don't have anything at all as they don't seem to be significant to the game in question i.e. Xenosaga.

red mages! even though some would argue that they're useless their outfit is so cute (i love the hat with the white feather) and i kinda like the idea of mixing white and black magic mixed in with some enfeeblement spells like poisons. Also Khimari (this is just my idea some may see it differently) is like a dragoon/blue mage(he steals enemy abilites but also has jump and lancet), quistis is more of what a true blue mage is like. Their the class that steals enemy abilities like in final fantasy tactics advance for the game boy.

i always prefered fighter, i like creating a beefy guy and raging into the heart of battle, killing everything in my path

Personally I'm a Fighter/Knight/Paladin type... and yes i like swords :D
Though i liked the Final Fantasy Tactics job system more than others...
especially for the character design, i wouldnt mind wearing those armors ;)

From the original FF I love the Fighter and Red Mage(You can see my FF party in my sig ^.^ )
From FFTactics I like the Lancer class and Ninja, and from FFTA I like Dragoon and Paldin
On Fire Emblem I like Mages... no... I love Mages (Clerics and Shaman are cool but old fashioned Mage is my fave)
But overall, if I had to choose one class... It'd be Lancer/Dragoon

Thanks. Blue Mages, that is the term that I was looking for.

Also I take it fighters are characters like Zell Dintch and Tifa Lockheart correct?

the war of genesis 3 part 2

I like the fighter/warrior mage class myself.
i like swing'n swords, fast attack rates and high attack power, with little concern for deffence. i dont like the slow super high HP DEF tank char. i guess thats somtimes called a 'berserker'. and if a game engine allows it, i like evasion. such as the 'ninja' from disgaea.
and a little magic on the side is always useful

technically tifa and zell are monks (but maybe thats what you meant ^_^) because they fight hand to hand and the way you input their limit breaks. tidus, squall, and cloud are more sterotypical fighters. I always liked systems (such as final fantasy) that have more diverse fighting classes than just some guy with a sword.

Monks! i take it you play a little D&D?

lol yes I do, but to make me not look like a total dork (lol just joking) they've been refered to as monks since the first ff with a job system. ::blushing at my own nerdyness:: ^_^

I see sometimes I tend to forget about synonyms especially given it depends on what game you're playing. I remember that a friend of mine once told me that Tifa and Zell are monks but I wasn't sure that fighters was another name for them given that they use hand-to-hand combat. But I see now. I tend to refer to characters like Cloud, Squall, and Tidus as knights XP.

Aww thats cute they are like knights.

i'd go with a Knight, i'm the kinda person who relies on physical strength and not magic

Rouge/Black Mages/Other Beings...

I like Dragoons from the FF serires. Especially Freya from FF IX. Her combination of power, magic, and defense was excellent. Beside FF, I've always been partial to priests. Not white mages, but more along the lines of DnD Priests (platemail-wearing, mace-toting healers). Both Dragoons and Priests are versitile, and I guess thats what I like best.

Gotta go with thieves. Started with FFs Locke.

Thieves are branded as bad, but Locke and thieves in other games proves that they do it for survival (only steal from the bad people and protect their friends) and can be great individuals.

My apologies, I should have named my favorite class(es). I'd have to go with Black Mages and Knights. Knights have always left a good impression on me because they tend to do the most damage as far a physical attacks go and I've always had a thing for swords though Japanese swords preferably but RPG knights tend to have some nicely designed swords. Black Mages because they're the pinnacle of mages in my opinion since they command offensive spells, of course that is not to say that I don't value a healer especially at the beginning of the game where its common you have no cash and buying hp/mp restoration items is very costly. However, Black Mages I like a bit more because they're very reliable in battle especially if the enemy/boss' weakness is elemental based as opposed to physical attacks.

Video game RPG's or pencil n paper RPG's?

In games I usually like to play warriors or magic-users.

Videogame RPGs.
