As per title, what's the most interesting, fun class you've ever played in an MMO? For me it's got to be :

1. EQ1 Bard - these guys were amazing, the ultimate jacks of all trades. You got to wear heavy armour, dual wield, and got a new song every level. I don't think I've ever enjoyed a class as much - speed spells, slowfalls, mez's, aoe damage songs and a load of others. And because the effect lasted a few seconds after the song ended, you could twists songs for multiple effects.

2. Not strictly a class as such, but the original skill system in SWG allowed for some really interesting characters. If you didn't mind spreading your allocation of skills around, you ended up with a toon that could do a bit of everything. I miss it :(
 
I forgot about DaoC, really liked the Warden. Groups tended to pick you up for the shield bubble, but you could do an awful lot more. Ranger was good too, lots of scope for unusual specs that actually worked.
