I have to start by saying that so far, I am thrilled by TOR. Fantastic game. Could use some polish, but it's excusable. However, I've run into a problem that has plagued me throughout my gaming 'career'- I can't decide what to play. If some benevolent and/or super-awesome fellow player could help me figure out a class (based on the preferences below), I would love them forever (in a totally non-creepy way):
Preferred Role: DPS (First) or Healer (Second)
Classes I've Enjoyed in Other Games: Hunter + Warlock (WoW), Cleric roles (Rift), Vanguard, Adept, and Engineer (Mass Effect [not sure if this really helps, but still... there's a chance])
PvE vs. PvP: Like both, but I'd have to go with PvE.
Solo vs. Group: I'd enjoy endgame grouping, but otherwise solo
Imp. vs. Rep. : I find myself leaning towards Republic, though I'd play either
Importance of Story (1-10): 8 and 1/2
Hope this is enough info. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
