Im looking to get 5000+ voters, check it out!

Trust me once people start playing you will see a shitload of bear shms, yea they suck lvl 1-20 but once you get pass that they are pretty overpowered, hit like a truck and can heal like one too.

Trucks can heal me? let me go try it out.

This poll will be a bit more accurate after 5000 or so votes. Assassin will definately have more players than 6% haha.

It's comforting to see that the majority of responders are between the ages of 20-30. 

umm... yeah, there's definitely going to be a lot more assassins by release. Probably making at least 20% of the game's population, if not more. MMO veterans realize how great an advantage it is to pick your battles when and where without that much consent by your target. This is what assassins in any MMORPG strive on, which is why so many people QQ over them... and they all have a really simply flaw to beat them with... but I'd rather keep that to myself

I voted bear shaman myself... not because they're overpowered once you get them farther, but I just like the versatile classes. Either that, a HoX, or DT... but the HoX apparently at the moment is way too vulnerable and the DT is more of an AoE PvE tank than a damage dealer, so we'll see. I'll probably make a HoX as an alt.

Assassin all the way. If traited correctly( Level 80) they wipe the floor with any class

This is THE reason rogue classes had been very powerful throu world pvp games. Thing is, in AOC. Ranges, barbargians also have awesome stealth, and all other classes got enough stealth to atleast avoid battles with and choose who to fight or not to fight.

Thats why i believe Barbarians is topping Assasin.

If you look at it generally, all the melee high survival/dps classes are popular.

Fighter Healer (bear shaman)

Fighter Caster (HoX)

Biffest rogue class (Barbarian)

2 Soldier classes (guardian and conquror)

Then you have the high dps low survival melee classes togheter with ranger:

Assasin, Ranger, DT (in its dps form im told its survival goes way down)

Then you have the Casters underrepped with the DPs casters lower then healers.

Overall its a pretty nice even string thou, but after a few months when the balances are figured out i expect those numbers tho shift severly, if they are even correct at this point.

anyway I'm favouring a ranger so far. kind of a cross between a more typical ranger, rogue and warrior as they got the sword and shield, medium armour but sneaky sneaky moves/traps etc. plus NO PETS! haha great, pets always dulled rangers imo.

that's the one thing I don't get about this...

...some classes just shouldn't get the ability to stealth. The only reason it is acceptable for a rogue/assassin/etc. is because the class is supposed to be played as an element of surprise. If every class gets to use guerilla tactics I'm not sure how well the PvP servers will bode.

Another reason is that, it really just doesn't fit. A demonologist, a guardian, and a barbarian are classes that I don't see as being stealthy classes. Really doesn't make mu
