What "job/class/archetype/etc. do you relate to [or enjoy playing] the most and why?
I will start...
I usually relate to droods druids. Cept for when I feel like conjuring fireballs, then I prefer wizards/mages....however, yes, mostly I enjoy playing a druid [or RDM in FFXI terms].
I generally relate to druids because they are self-sufficient, master of none, but jack of all trades. I love the diversity of playing a hybrid type class. And depending on my mood, I can fare well solo or fall into a support role in a duo or group situation.
The only exception to druids for me, is WoW. I really hated how blizzard made druids. My favorite rendition of a druid has to be the Vanguard druid and the druid of Everquest Online Adventures. A druid should be a "storm caller," whether it be to call the powers of nature for healing or destruction. Plus, storm caller just sounds pretty cool.

I like playing melee characters, especially the more survivable ones that can take a lickin' and keep on tickin'.
I don't know why, but I like to get in there and mix it up instead of stand where it's safe like a sensible person. Perhaps it's an attempt to get away from my own self and my own limitations; if my real-life self were a fantasy RPG character, I'd be a shoe-in for your typical book-learned wizard, maybe white mage (but probably not cleric), but I'd be a lousy fighter.
Well, unless I went swordmage, perhaps. Hrmm! |

Hmm mostly rogues, warriors, hunters, elementals, shapeshifters or a combo of that. It mostly depends on what kinda outfit or kickass moves they have for me, he he.. _________________ It was time I opened the door and let you into my heart<3 |

i'm kinda all over the map really. n.n; and it really depends on what game i'm playing, though in generally, i usually start with either archer/ranger or thief/rogue unless one of my friends is already playing that class. i suffer from major ALTitis though so yeah... but as far as what i considered my mains to be...
Ragnarok Online
Thief/Assassin > Archer/Hunter > Acolyte/Priestess
Anarchy Online
Adventurer (probably the equivalent of a Druid since it could shapeshift)
Final Fantasy
Monk (w/ Thief subjob)
City of Heroes
Blaster(range) > Defender(healer) > Controller(kind of a Warlock/Druid mix? )
City of Villains
Mastermind(Warlock w/ a lot more pets lol)
World of Warcraft
Hunter > Mage
Tabula Rasa
Specialist(could branch off into either a Ranger or Spy archetype)
Lord of the Rings Online
Minstrel (hey, my banjo skills were the BOMB! LOL)
Hellgate London
Marks(wo)man
Perfect World
Barbarian(tank)
so yeah...i'm pretty all over the map. if anything, i usually try to go with something that my friends need in the team but i also enjoy playing. in general, as long as i feel i can solo to some degree on the class, i'm all good. _________________

I like rogues too, my main on WoW is a rogue. But now that you mentioned ranged, I am kind of a closeted ranger. My main on AoC was ranger, my first class in WoW was hunter and my rng is 45 on FFXI, I only quit it cause of the horrible nerf.
But I still have love for druids, and can only hope that one day, some developer out there will get it right.
EQOA: 60 Druid (storm caller) 60 Necro (no tag) 40 Warrior
EQ2:70 Necro, 71 Shadow Knight, 51 Wizard, 51 Warden (druid)
FFXI: 75 SAM, 75 RDM, 64 THF, 57 DRK, 56 BRD, 46 MNK, 45 RNG, 44 NIN...bah...everything is pretty much 37+
AoC: 61 Ranger, 30 ToS (this game sucks arse, don't waste your gil...errr I mean money)
WoW: 66 Rogue, 33 Priest, 25 druid, 11 hunter
Other MMOs aren't worth mentioning really...cause my chars are lv 25 or lower. _________________ "I miss my cupcake" |

I like playing rogues, though I have played druids before(in DnD).
I am currently a swashbuckler. It is fun. _________________ The Angels have the Phonebox. |

I'm very much a people-pleaser... so I always either end up some meatshield tank or some sort of healer. Then I get ridiculous statistics that make it impossible for me to level alone *sulk*
But hey, I really like the attention <3 |

I adore Elven Rangers... so cool in D&D 4.0 too! I really like Elves to begin with though... pwetty! I like the two weapon melee, but archer is awesome too!
I love to develop backstories for my characters but then we never play long enough to have my back story tie into the plot.
I'm still mad at that one Succubus... even if she was hawt.
