the reason i go for an ASSASSIN is the style of play of the class....and i used to have 2 Rogues at WOW lvl 70+ Full Arena Set(Horde) and 2 lvl 60+ rogue(Allies)...so i know the class and i will like to see how it gonna be in AION.....if i get dissapointed i will go for a GLADITOR :D

I'm pretty much set my heart of Agi based Melee for almost any MMORPG, even if i went for Gladiator i'd prob go more speed, which might nerf the whole concept of gladiator :P

I was tempted by ranger, but i LOVE doing huge DPS, so i guess assassin is where i'm going first

I got tired of playing a gladiator in past mmo's so i tried playing rangers and assassins as alt characters and i loved the stealth abilities and major spike dps that the assassins showed.

I've always played this kind of class in games, mainly. Their role and play style fits me best. The speed, agility, aggressiveness which they possess. I like close combat, and lashing out loads of damage swiftly. Stealth and camouflage is cool as well.

I just hope they don't become too repetitive.

Sticking with ranger on this one. One problem I always had with rogues in mass PvP was avoiding getting slaughtered the moment I initiate an attack.

One thing i do like about the assassin is the ability to stealth and attack, only to remain visible while attacking but also able to stealth away during the limited time your stealth-ed.

Assassin.
I always liked speed and dual wielding weapons. And I also love classes that require more thought and skills.

Ranger

I like fast chars with good damage output. I like to gank.
And these "bonuses" like stealth, traps and dual weapon handling sounds good also

I voted assassin, In every mmo I play I always go the thief/assassin route most require greater skill to play and are more fulfilling when you master them.

Ranger, because i'm sick of getting owned by AoEs on my melee jobs. Also in PvP (which is obviously going to be big in this game), being in the front lines is just asking to be nuked to hell from the mages/other rangers. Last but not least, the obvious: dmg output. :)

After years of playing a rogue and warrior i feel the need to be the kiter rather than the kitee, i think a ranger will offer a lot more skill based PvP. But I have a very set image of what the class should be and if it doesn't match how I think it will and should be I will probably immediately reroll to the warrior class that I cant remember the name of. I probably won't be playing the assassin class in Aion because of what i have seen/heard of the stealth mechanic.

Whilst I actually considered/consider to go with Ranger, I think the class is kinda lame. Atleast my experience with hunters from Wow, sure they're a ranged class so they should stay away like chickens.

Even so, I'd rather face my enemy face to face then run around annoying him until he stops chasing me.

dude, going by one of the movies i watched a few days ago stealth works in the freakin air!

No one is beyond the grasp of my ganking anymore!

And yes, I'll be going Assassin, contrary to what most people feel when playing a stealth based class in mass PvP, I really enjoy sneaking behind enemy lines and taking out nukers/healers alone or with a group of other stealthers.

The Assassin, Rogue, ninja and Thief classes have always been my favorite. FFxi has a ninja job that is prettty cool but it's not really like an assassin it's more of a tanking job. I hope the Assassin class in Aion will be more like rogue in wow only better and cooler looking :)


I can't wait for this beautiful game:)

Assassin, swift and deadly.
It also takes some skills to actually play it. Though most classes do, I feel you need to push it a bit more when playing assassin, as you have to get behind your target.
