Dragon Age: Origins What class?

I got two questions, here we go:

1st: I recently had to reset my computer from the start and lost all my save game files, i played a rogue and was pretty good at it too, it was really damn hard at the start though, died like a thousand times before i got to anywhere. But now that my 15+ hour game file is gone, i was wondering what class should i play this time? I was thinking about the mage for dps and stuff, but theres also the tank class. which ones easier to play then the rogue? I dont want to bother with finding the most powerfull class or something, i just want it to be easy smooth and be able to enjoy the story. What do you reccomend to me?

2nd: Vote the Poll for your personal favorite class, i might go with the highest rated one at the end. =) Thanks!

I noticed a big difference between warrior vs mage. I died all the time at the beginning as a warrior, but almost never as a mage. I was using a lot of entropy and a couple spirit spells. It did however seem that the top-tier entropy spells were pretty useless compared to some of the earlier ones. But overall mage is pretty cool.

I plan to re-roll as well, since I don't like the customization of my character that much (I'm weird like that). I was thinking of trying a rogue myself :) It might also be easier to control my own backstabbing rather than micro-managing Leilana and Zevran..

The rogue is really fun to play, but the problem i had was that my rogue always ran out of the yellow energy thing so super fast that i mostly only was able to use like 2 or 3 skills then wait till the battle was over and play the other characters, that was a little disapointing, but if that wasnt the case, i probably would roll rogue again, its a fun class.

And about the mage, i was thinking about making one too yea, but arent they like really easy to kill? Like clothies usually are, 2/3 hits and your dead?

They don't take many hits.. you can use one base magic armour spell that I don't think takes any mana (it's one of your basic abilities) AND there's and earth armour spell which supposedly makes you pretty awesome. And you can specialize as an Arcane Warrior to wear heavy armour using the magic attribute instead of strength (I haven't done that myself.. heard from a friend, though).

I found my survivability to be quite good with horror and paralyze, as well as having Morrigan's horror spell. It effectively disables an enemy for a good amount of time, so if you ever draw aggro.. just cast one of those spells on the enemy attacking you. And sleep is AoE, which can disable a lot of enemies at the same time... but sleep is much more dependant on what type of enemies you're fighting, whereas horror and paralyze work most of the time.

I think I had the same problem as your rogue with my warrior.. run out of endurance or w/e that stat is, so I could hardly use any abilities.

I think im going for mage. I saw that humans and elves can be mages, so should i go elves? It seems to have the better starting stats and i also already played the human story at the beginning but i think its different if i chose magi instead of noble human thing. Any tips?

Its called a role-playing game, so make decisions for yourself.

Or i can take advice, which im doing now, if you dont like it, keep it for yourself.

I like the rogue the best. It was a fun class that can dish out major damage at high lvls.

The mage is too easy. Make your main character a Blood mage/arcane mage and you pretty much roll through everything.

Well, i made my decision of making a mage, and i love it, thanks for all who participated, wish you a great week ^^

Well enjoy the mage... :D I personally enjoyed the corpse explosion skill, forget what it's called.. and sleep + horror is insta-kill on lowlier enemies, massive damage on tougher ones.

I tried to roll enough since I wanted to try out the elf origin stories as well.. but.. I couldn't get one looking right, so I rolled a human rogue instead. Fun class so far... I love all the backstabbing goodness.

Personally, I'd go with a mage because you're going to get plenty of warriors and rogues in your party throughout the game. You get mages as well, but they're more of the healer and druid types. You'll be able to get some insanely powerful spells early on if you start one from scratch.

I didn't like the mage class really, on the other hand I only played mage for a few hours.

Currently I play warrior as DPS and like it.

Oh ok, i was thinking of getting the expansion once im finished with the game for real this time, wont have to reset my comp this time haha, so ill be able to finish it ^^

I wanted to thank everyone who participated =) Been a big help with my decision, i almost went warrior but now went mage and im loving it so much, i havent died yet at places where my rogue died like 50 times lol.

Im so happy right now!! XD

Mage is OP. However they have *the worst* origins story.skrat_01

I agree, it is not half as personable as the other five
