The Daily Grind: What was the worst-designed class in the history of MMOs?

    
38

Not all MMO classes are made equal. Some have their periods in the spotlight of developer love and become the most popular picks, while others are quirky underdogs who never seem to get much attention by the team.

However, I don’t want to talk about the fully functioning classes today; I want us to zero in on classes that were so poorly designed that they should’ve been scrapped before going live. Once in a blue moon, there comes along a class that’s so broken, so underpowered, so confusing, or so inept that it boggles the mind why it got made.

What’s that class, and why was it so bad?

Every morning, the Massively Overpowered writers team up with mascot Mo to ask MMORPG players pointed questions about the massively multiplayer online roleplaying genre. Grab a mug of your preferred beverage and take a stab at answering the question posed in today’s Daily Grind!
