I think I'm actually leaning more towards caster classes tbh. I get a bit bored with the melee types and they make me play bad. (That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it )

@Boeroer @Okkes Thanks for the replies! I've tried out Fighter, Cipher & Druid all to very, very early parts of the game. I mean first town with the hanging tree and part cleared the temple ruins early. I was bored as Fighter. Cipher I kept forgetting to cast abilities with and the druid was the coolest by far, but I had a habit of initiating combat popping into wereboar form and charging headlong into combat. Great until I met a Spirit that ate me for lunch! The Druid I should probably play better, but I'll give a Wizard a go too. It might make me play better. Is there a recommended difficulty level for a reasonably balanced challenge? Also whilst I think on it, do multiple instances of the same items bonuses stack? I.e. +5 from ring of protection, stack to +10 if you wear two or locked at the +5?

Hello folks, Not sure how much traction this forum gets, but I'm guessing it's as good a place to ask as any! I picked up poe1 over the weekend and despite lots of reading I can't decide on a class to play. Traditionally in rpg's I've initially jumped in with a melee type, fighter or a fighty cleric. This tends to get a bit boring snd tedious. But, the most fun I've had comes from dots and CC. My typical parties in Baldurs Gate always ended up with a meat shield or two and everyone else ranged. There's nothing like seeing a bunch of mobs wandering around aimlessly or stuck in place as their health ticks down, and maybe finishing with a big ol' nuke. Which of the classes, if any does this sound like to you? Thanks in advance, I appreciate any and all help!
