    Oh I know, I’m just shitposting about the so-called “noob role”.

    I think most people tend to start out with Ranger… who wouldn’t want to be able to do damage and also do some casting too?

      damn, you didn’t had to call me out like that. My first character was a Ranger :(

        I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it as an insult. I wanted to stress that the utility aspect of being able to heal is a major draw. If you’re starting out, you don’t really know what’s waiting for you, and that minor heal looks like a smart choice.

        Full disclosure: the first character I created for any RPG ever was a Ranger. I was playing the NES port of Ultima III, didn’t want to get my ass handed to me, and the minor heal abilities looked appealing. That was…jeez, in the late 80s I think?

        For me, it’s always rogue first. Daggers, speech, and lockpick.

          Barbarian for me. Or shield guy. Seven is basically your tank if she has borg shields.
