im suprised people are reporting seeing a lot of PoM around (or playing them). I saw a poll on funcom's site and it was the least popular class of the group. I like to play the least popular classes so I guess PoM is out now for me. What other classes have you seen very few of ? Assassin very popular or rare ?
Dunno if you're serious or not... but Assassins, Rangers, and Barbarians are all extremely overpopulated.
Don't try to pick a class that no one else plays - pick one that will be fun to you. Servers will change over time, people will roll alts... you'll never be "the only one" so just pick one for fun and don't regret your choice later on.
I've been playing HoX and I must say i was originally a bit skeptical but after you get to 10 it starts to pick up. Before then your pretty much forced to use a couple combos and a close range fire spell while getting beat up in your cloth armor. I thought the demon form would be more of an important aspect of the HoX game play but it really hasn't yet I only have been using it for boss battles and when fighting multiple enemies. At 10 you get some much needs defensive buffs and as soon as I got those I really started to enjoy the class.
I was kind of curious how they'd work out. So, do you get enough of a defensive buff without demon form that you can stand on the front lines?

First of all unless I am grouped with someone I have not been able to see their class. Probably missing something.
I have seen a good variety and from what I have seen its very well balanced. but... so many levels to go
But, most of the classes are obvious to spot. If I had to list them from most popular to least from what I have seen, on a PVP server its:

Your kidding me ? Pom, a healer class is the most popular ? That cant be right. Poll on funcom's website had them the LEAST most popular
And to the other poster, playing the least popular class is where I get my fun from. Its the same old story in MMO's, least popular class gets buffed up in a patch, and usually ends up as a rare but needed class for raids

Have you seen the PoM spellweaving video? Its damn cool..maybe thats why. My secondary char is going to be a PoM....might even switch over if the Ranger becomes gimp.
To see someone's class and such, you click on them, then right click on the target window in the lower right center and at the bottom is player information that will give details about what class they are and such.
I haven't been paying that much attention to what other people are playing. I know there are a lot of assassins running around, which seems to appeal to the DPS minded crowd.
I play a necro myself and the only thing I am disappointed in is the lack of any real crowd control. I can kill a single or two group with little trouble, but when I get more, then I usually get a beatdown. So I've been doing the whole burn, run, repeat, hoping I could whittle them down a little at a time.
playing a HoX abd loving it. On the other hand - Bear shaman either i have a really bad case of l2p or they are just a rather weak class. Maybe they get alot better at higher lvls but just way to tedious to drag him up thru the lvls.
