I voted StamDK since I have about four or five of them. I like the physical aspect of just hitting stuff as opposed to magic. My least favorite is a night blade. Too fragile and one is truly enough for me. Have a couple sorcerers and templars too. If I knew now what the classes were like when I first started, I probably wouldn't have the number of alts that I do but I'm still in the mindset that my first character should be my "main". Plus DKs seem to fit every race but not every race fits every class to me. Debating what race my warden will be and wonder how it will compare. I know I won't like a squishy design.

Magicka Templar was the easiest, followed closely by magicka Sorcerer, especially after unlocking power surge. I'm currently training - leveling 1-50 is just a small part of the story for my chars - a stamina NB. Playing stamina without vigor is really not fun. Nevertheless, I was till able to solo some of the world bosses in underleveled gear, just as I did with the characters that came before. I don't remember much about leveling my Stamina DK because at that time was a hybrid. I needed to be a hybrid to tank dungeons, since my overall stats were lower due to the lack of CPs and the prohibitive price of Hakeijos back then. Also Nord didn't have a stamina bonus and wasn't decided if I wanted to go stamina or magicka end game. When they announced the racial passive and class morph changes I was already on the way of changing to full stamina, which is my current build. What I remember about my hybrid days is that damage was absolute bull. I was crawling trough overland mobs with probably ~5K DPS. I would never train a character wearing heavy armor or try to DPS in heavy armor again.

Oops
Looks like Stam classes desperately need some love it seems

I'm a tank so stamina and a nightblade for furtivity i'm an assassin from Orsinium i'm one orc of course so more stamina it's very funny

Back in 2014 my first character with game launch was magicka templar, still he is

But magicka DK is fun as hell too.

Mates,

I am just curious to know the community's favorite class if they have to start it from scratch with that toon.

I wanted to say Magicka NB, but the problem is a lot of their best skills are low down the skill trees, so a majority of levelling is done without them. Whereas Templars might have to wait a while for the Jesus Beam, they get to start Sweeping/Jabbing from level 1.
