Tanks, Healers, DPS. This is the holy trinity of World of Warcraft. Despite the challenges (or maybe because of) that each role has, people play them all and enjoy them. But there's always that favorite. The one thing you just loooove to do. That one role you always find yourself going back to because you enjoy the challenge of keeping aggro on mobs or the thrill of holding the lives of your group-mates in your hands or the rush of beating your buddy on the meters. What role is it that you like to play the most? Vote now in our new poll!

You can view all the results of past polls here.

Tanking.
Back in BC when Prot Pally was considered a farce and joke. Was fun to prove unbelievers that it was possible (and worthy).

I like kaiser rolls actually. They are great for burgers and for regular lunch meat sandwiches. Egg salad can be a bit messy though since they're kind of chewy and if you try to bite through some kaiser rolls with egg salad in them, they just squeeze the egg salad all over you. That's why, when I make an egg salad sandwich on a kaiser roll, I try to scrape some of the doughy part out of the middle of the roll so that it forms a little hollow. Egg salad stays in better that way I find.

Personally, I'm torn between croissant and dinner rolls. I suppose it mostly depends on the butter.

Also personally, I enjoy tanking roles as long as I'm not berated for folks who can't figure out what an /assist macro is.

I don't really have a favorite, (I perform all three) I just strive to be the best I can be at whichever role I am undertaking at the moment.

A nice fresh out of the oven folded yeast roll, with either butter or honey sometimes jelly. Best is thanksgiving when you can make mini sandwiches out of them with turkey, misc toppings/veggies, stuffing and of course cranberry sauce. Not surprisingly this is something my mother bakes (that no woman or half-assed man baker like myself can replicate) that everyone begs her to make more of all the time. I think I love these things as much for the taste as for how insane it makes my female relatives (sister goes nuts especially) and girlfriend when they can't even get the things to rise.


On the bot topic, my favorite to play is tank, followed by healing, then dps (I have fallen asleep while playing as dps maaanny times, especially on long raids). Although if you don't deal well with stress or want minimal responsibility, reverse that order.

Tank = dealing with douche DPS mistakes (if you fail, you suck)
Healing = keeping douches alive with no reward (if you fail, you suck)
DPS = you get to be the douche (if you fail, you are normal)

DPS is easier and more fun. 34 minute queues suck though.

Here is my guide to DPS queues:
1) queue
2) note "average" time
3) go help the wife, pick up some lunch, cut the grass, whatever
4) return to computer 5 minutes prior to average queue time
5) run instance
6) rinse
7) repeat

Kinda sad that WoW can't get more tanks. Unfortunately giving tanks bonuses for runs just means more fail tanks are queueing.

I mainly play healers (all of them) but when I get on my warlock I have a lot more fun... so I chose dps even though I usually heal (PVP).

Harrison Ford in "Blade Runner". Or maybe Will Smith in "I am legend", or Tom Hanks in "Cast Away".
Female wise, Anne Parillaud in "Nikita" (the real movie, not the crap series). Jodie Foster in "Silence of the Lambs" or Nathalie Portman in "V for Vendetta" are good contenders too...


If you mean in game, Tanking, of course.

Also, I HATE the concept of the three "roles". I wish they would completely do away with the roles altogether.
