Baldur's Gate : The Sword Coast Chronicles : NWN2 Persistent World

I saw the topic regarding Spirit Shaman spells, and though "Huh... never played one of those before!"

Then I was wondering, what base classes have you never played, and why?


And perhaps as a follow up, maybe there's some fun to be had in creating some "Classes you've never played"-adventure groups! I generally play EU times, which means I mostly get the low seasons in population, but perhaps if time permits, I'd be interested in joining one such group myself!

Ive never played MAA. For some reason, I keep picturing the power armor from Fallout.

I've never played Phantom or Spirit Shaman.

Spirit Shaman feels like a niche, and I just don't quite understand Phantom

Fighter - at least never played a pure/dedicated one. Didn't ever felt an itch to touch it
Scout - still want to give it a try - but still can't get the idea of what character to roll with it
Ninja, Man at Arms - just don't understand the idea of those classes honestly, but would actually give a try to ninja one day
Paladin - screw all this hardcore Lawful Good (tm) thing :p
Phantom - how *this* is any different from rogue/ninja?
Commoner - I have enough of Average Joe in real life, thanks

Well, that's a long list,
Paladin, cleric, barbarian, wizard, phantom, man at arms, commoner, monk.
No inspiration to play a character that'd fit them, yet!

Global-galatic in view over all server I had played and only counted the vanilla-base classes:

Paladin
Spirit-Schaman

Phantom is amazing. Give it a try

I've never played a Wizard. I feel like it's a class for people with advanced degrees in mathematics.

MAA is an awesome class. I highly recommend it to anyone who prides themselves on being a Tank.

Cheers!

Have you seen some of our wizards? They're casting 9's and not knowing how cantrips work.
