What role in a party do you see ever class in?

After playing all 5 classes, I see them like this.

Guardian Fighter: Defensive Tank. Keeps enemy attention on him so the rest of his party isn't so hard pressed, but must depend on them for his own survival. Can also conduct attacks of opportunity on his current target(s).

Trickster Rogue: Single Target Damage Dealer. Works with the Guardian Fighter to take down hard to defeat foes.

Control Wizard: Long Range Crowd Contorl/Offensive Support. Slows down/debilitates or slays enemies at range.

Great Weapon Fighter: Close Quarters Crowd Control/Offensive Support. Slows down/debilitates enemies. Works with the Control Wizard to remove as many enemies from the battle as possible.

Devoted Cleric: Support. Either buffs up or heals his allies to keep them in the fight, or debuffs enemies to make them easier for his friends to take them down.


What do you think of this?

    GF & GWF - 5th wheel on the wagon

    That's the way I see it .

    It's when people don't do their roles properly that everything goes <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font>-up.

    GF doesn't pull adds off - Party fails to adds
    TR doesn't have enough DPS - Party fails to infinite adds
    DC doesn't heal - Party fails to adds
    CW doesn't keep some heat off party - Party fails to adds
    GWF doesn't do something...ehh w/e

    Notice a pattern?

    Apparently no one likes the Great Weapon Fighter, despite his ability (when coupled with the Control Wizard) to clear the board.

    GF - single target/aoe dps with extra tank abilities

    gwf - aoe/some single target and determination op

    cw - aoe/push + get mobs in one place for gf to kill

    dc - heals

    tr - single target/daze debuffs


    my gf normally comes off highest damage in every encounter with villains menace spam + all the enemies are on me (apart from boss if i dont want him) because of the threat coming from that damage so both dps + tank marks + kills i guess come off the OP GF so if you think that they should be tank fullstop then you have no idea
