I like to think that skill in an MMO is using your classes abilities to the best they can.

This is the reason i like to be classes where i have to think about what i'm doing. Rogues, De buffers and mages are my top 3.

Rogues can't afford to draw alot of aggro and they have to use their stealth to get their most deadly moves out.

De Buffers are my favourite. Burglars in LOTRO are a good example. Sort of a mix between rogues and de buffers but they aren't the dps that rogues are. Although Mesmers in GW were the best de buffers. I liked how you had to consider both your opponents and your party when selecting skills and when to use them. Really is rewarding when you know you have played it right and aided the party in a huge way.

Mages need alot fo skill simply because they are weak and have to use certain spells at certain times to be able to survive.

I'm not a fan of anything that can spam heal or that tanks simply because their combat seems very 3-4 skill. Tanks just seem to run in draw everyone and hit them with a variety of animations.

Healers i suppose need skill but i've never really enjoyed the responsibility of being one. If your a good healer though...i like you.
