lol. In what way are blademasters the simplest to play?

if its a class that you can afford to look away from the screen for 10sec and still see yourself or others alive, or not have to face some kind of squad consequence, then its fairly easy.

The question is not how hard can you MAKE the class, its how hard is it on average compared to other classes.

Your first class is always the hardest to play. You have to take into consideration the learning curve.

As a bm I've had to run around protecting squishy's and stuff in squads(doing my job). And I thought that was pretty fun. And you have to pay attention.

But I now have a cleric alt which has been so easy to play...except in squads. Maybe its just because I've never had to really pay attention to every ones life bars. But now I do. And watch the mini map for adds. And I can't go afk to the bathroom during boss's anymore....

Umm i switched from a tanker to ranged DD and boy it was tough to start with. Always charged in thinking I was a tanker and died soon after :P.

Anyways as far as easiness of gameplay goes, I believe archers and wizards have it pretty easy compared to most classes. Being ranged gives a certain advantage when you need to target non-grouping but aggro mobs (example, saphire planesharks, minion of alucard, vampiric nightstalkers, huggy hares etc clustered together. Also if you ever aggro more than one mob, you can easily judge if you can handle them or not and kite as required. The only challenge here is to watch that aggro :P

Barbs, as easy as their gameplay might seem am pretty sure its hard for them. Being a tank its their job to hold aggro and holding aggro on multiple mobs can be difficult. Also if the right skills arent used you can end up causing a squad wipe. On top of this, magic mobs would definitely cause a lot of trouble for these brave kitties if theyre hunting alone.

BMs, mob control, off-tanking, melee DD. When you need to do so many things and switch between weapons (a good Bm would do it based on the situation) you would need really fast fingers and reaction times for playing this well.

Veno, requires a really good pet . The venos primary weapon is the pet and if its not good its gonna be hell. So apart from levelling themselves and their skills they would also need to level their pets and its skills. This takes quite a bit of effort but if done correctly, theyre pretty much set and can do quite a lot of things by themselves without much help. This would pretty much put them at the top of the easiest relative to the others.

Cleric, its hard. End of Discussion. I dont think I need to elaborate on this :P

Assassin, this would really require a skilled player no matter how you look at it. Timing is everything for this class and if you do not get it right, youre gonna be spending quite a bit on keeping yourself alive. A skilled assassin would not need to use pots as such, much less a charm. They have great capabilities but only if used corrected.

Psychics, I guess I could place them with wizards for now.

Therefore with relative easinesss (from easiest to hardest) my rating would go as follows:-

1.) Venomancers
2.) Archers
3.) Wizards & Psychics
4.) Barbarians
5.) Clerics
6.) Blademasters and Assassins
