I have no idea what I want to play as now that I've tried them all!!! I think it's a toss up between stalker and medic. I wanted to do warrior but after reading that guide posted, it seems stalker actually makes a good tank and they have better threat generation than a warrior.
I think I may have a panic attack lol!!

If you are switching to stalker just because of threat generation then you can rest assured they will fix warrior threat generation.
When I was healing low lvl dungeons, I could see no difference in the ability to hold aggro from a stalker and a warrior. This doesn't account for raids and having to switch tanks, nor high level areas. But they will fix threat generation so all 3 tank classes generate threat similarly.

My problem is that I can't decide between esper and medic. I really want to play an Aurin but they can't be medics. And i really like Medic DPS. It is soo soo much fun.
But I might end up making an Esper just so I can have my little Aurin princess.

I've been in the same boat for a while. I was stuck choosing between Engineer, Medic, and SpellSlinger.
After releveling an engineer late in beta I decided to make an Engineer my main. But I will definitely have a medic and SpellSlinger as well just maybe not at launch.
My suggestion if you are still torn is to start out leveling them together. Play one X hours then switch and play the other. I bet by the time you reach 20ish one will start to feel more fun. I did this with the Medic and Spellslinger during beta. And found I like the Medic more than the SpellSlinger. I still want to play both but Medic would be my higher priority.

In the last ops week test I participated in, I played a stalker and was having a blast killing stuff because it seemed to happen so fast haha. Obviously that would probably change with a tank build. But I think after reading and looking at some end game gear for stalker that's the route I'm going to take. Might end up just going straight dps anyhow

In the same boat. It was originally a toss up between the Spellslinger and the Stalker. But, since my boss is off today, I have been watching some Medic videos. Not a good idea since this class is looking really good to me right now..lol

That is a tough decision! My big issue has been which race? I think I am going male Mordesh, but female Aurin is also appealing. For class I am going stalker for sure. I love the mechanics of it and I always gravitate to the stealthy characters in games. Decisions decisions! GL in yours

SOLUTION A: Take out your Life Board Game Spinner and give it a whirl with each space taken by a Class/Path combo
SOLUTION B: Have someone else choose for you and live with the consequences
SOLUTION C: Have a raffle in order to raise money for charity with your class/path combo chosen from slips of folded up paper in a bowl
SOLUTION D: Buy the game for every member of your family, and have each child and significant other play a different Class/Path combo, and in one month, play the toon that has reached the highest level amongst them all
SOLUTION E: Play every class to 50, one at a time, in no particular order, and then select the one that was the most fun among them all (of course, this would require many hours of playtime and the willingness to struggle through those arduous hours as quickly as possible)
And the list goes on... Hope that helps...
