LoL guys. I picked Assassin just coz I love sins in all MMO. Which class is better? hmm every class is special. Question is, WHO is gonna be on top in pvp ladder/battle. Muahahaha

Anyway my choice Sin->Templar->Conq->Barbn. LoL I just hate brute force classes/users =P

Barbarian's rock! "Crush your enemies. See them driven before you..." and the next part spoken would be a sex offense XD That is the meaning of life!

I just figured out the number of votes before the page reloads. I counted 13 votes before the page reloaded. I tested it, to make sure that it wasn't random. And it doesn't seem to be a bug with the site. It looks to be set to the number 13. I'm still not sure why the page must reload. I just think its supposed to delay you from posting a lot.

So why do they allow you to vote as many times as you want? Isn't that a flaw in the system? Or is it to show who voted this amount of times? It says I voted 63 times, but I believe I voted more then that. I've been voting constantly, like I had no life. (lol)

Perhaps if you play PvP in solo the guardian is the best but when you'll play with your guild on Ts and stuff like that I dont think It will be the most powerfull char.

If any of you guys was in beta you would know all soldier type classes was way to powerfull i used guardian and conquer on PVP event i died once ( with guardian) of over 30 pvp battles 1vs 1 guardian just to tough for all other classes to kill him. i used spear most of the time .

The dark templar sounds CAS but the conqueror or assassin allows for the most user control and will probably be the most popular. Demonologist? cool name, average sounding abilities

Man, a whole lot of you are gettin kind touchy about the validty of this poll...... Is the winning class going to make important decisions for our country or something? It's just a fun thing, who cares about the statistical mechanics behind it.....
I'm just voting on which class I think would be more cool

ROFL Ryguy... ever class in AoC can hide... and even then Assasin is a bit one-minded.

I like the Dark Templar. I like the idea that it can deal decent damage and offtank with self healing.

I think its the assassin because if you get the jump on someone when your in stealth no matter what the class is chances are their going down

Okay, its obviously these top voters who have voted 19000 times are using an auto-clicker. Its so simple i could do it. Now the entire voting system means absolutely nothing because it is random. What do you guys think is the best and if u want why?

I would just like good answers =) and i think it would help ppl out

"How the hell can any normal person vote 17 thousand times?"

I'm normal? Lies!

Besides, this "poll" is flawed on so many levels that it's a joke. Being forced to vote on issues (in this case, classes) that you have little or no opinion of in order to be able to vote on one that you do care about, in what is likely an effort to make the results appear more balanced, is statistically flawed - especially when the subject matter is based on subjective opinion. Following on the above, seeing as how less than 1% of the people likely to vote on this "poll" are in the closed beta (and therefore have any real idea what they're voting on), this "poll" fits the bill for being based almost entirely on subjective opinion.

The fact that you then must be allowed to vote more than once because of the flawed voting method is also statistically flawed. Therefore, it is not difficult to see that this "poll" is statisically meaningless (or "bollocks", for you Brits) to begin with.

In short, to all those people complaining about what impact I, or anyone else who eventually out-votes me, have on this "poll" - quitcherb*tchin.

I don't get it why people try to promote their favourite class. I don't want to play the most common class. The best thing would be if I could play a class that no one else could play, so I was completely original.

"quadricslash has voted 17023 times at the time of posting this... there goes the credibility of this poll."

Try reading the opening paragraph:
"Return to the battle and keep supporting your odds on favorite until he, she, or it comes out on top."

Note the "RETURN to the battle and KEEP supporting your odds on FAVORITE...." This poll was designed to be voted on repeatedly - therefore it had no credibility to begin with.
