    I'll always log in on my sorc every other time, have INCREDIBLE fun, get killed twice in laggy and/or low fps situations and thus go back to the tanky HA templar. Somewhat I have the most fun on relatively squishy but mobile builds, but only being tanky is somethign that I can bear for many hours a week including some laggy/glitchy situations

    no matter the build, though: pvp with a guild group larger than 4 kills all the fun for me :( I used to have fun that way but I just don't feel it anymore

    I have always been a healer. Not good Templar mind you. But had a blast doing it. However now. Since I have always been a Templar for healing. I'm trying out something new. I became a DK and Nightblade. Very different play style.

    It's fun distracting the puggles defending a keep on my Argonian DK. They'll just keep following you blind with rage that they can't kill you in one shot. Meanwhile you lead them to the slaughter.

    My favorite moment occurred while my guild was having a PvP hunting party and I was score keeper. Two EP, a nightblade and a templar, decided it would be fun to whail on me. I dispatched the night blade twice after shrugging off his incapacitating strike. Then templar was able to out heal my damage, but I was able to interrupt his beam several times. Once I marched right up to him like Superman and bashed him in the face. If they were more coordinated, or had more help I'd have been in trouble. Getting 2v1'd while checking the map calling hints for our guild event and not dying or having to call in reinforcements was fun.

    For me it's a bit of all. But usually i play a tanky char that can also pull off some dps. My main is a templar so the healing is very real too :)

    In pvp you must fill all roles. If you have one specific role - you either ganker, healbot, zerger.

    I can't really place my build in any of those. I DPS, but I build to be tanky, and I build to be tanky while also being self sufficient in healing. I fight to hold my ground, to aid my allies, and to be able to take down other players on my own.

    Not the best at any three roles, but overall, I can adapt better than any DPS, tank, or healer might.

    I play DPs for my group, I am geared to be a back up to the guys on the front line an offer supporting dps, I don't waste time on duels or 1v1 in a game not designed for it, we have a small 4 to 5 man static group of friends that run together.

    I actually PREFER to heal. But I can't run in a group cuz I can't stand the lag and I get 10x the AP as solo dps... so...

    If I could run solo as a healer for all the little zerglings in the world AND get the AP, that would be awesome.

    Solo.

    The poll implies that pvp = group play, which couldnt be more wrong. Pvp is not raiding. A competent solo player has to fill all these roles.
