Through my years of mmo and rpg gaming I've tended to swing between the two extremes of the warrior/wizard dynamic.
Some days I just want to be a dumb tank in full armor soaking up hits and acting as a wall for squishier classes. But then there's days where I love being a glass cannon that can kill something in 1-2 nukes but a strong breeze can kill me.
The least fun I've head with a class was as a healer druid in Everquest. Something so stressful about the party relying on you for heals and if you wipe it's generally your fault. idk how people dedicate themselves to a class like that.
I tend to try and 'explain that' in my settings as 'concepts of pride and honor are both a lot more prevalent and a lot more subjective. "Honor" to one warrior might mean steel and spells, the next might think the one that came before him is a mewling milksop for the one or two cantrips they'll throw in a fight'; et cetera.
I figure the latterd get offed by the former given enough time
