I'm curious, What is your favorite class to play, When you are a halfling? Not asking for the best, Just what you enjoy playing as a halfling.
This came from a silly idea that popped into my head earlier. You see, I like Halflings, But I'm on my second ever Pathfinder character and havent played one yet. But reading about them I love them! So I thought, Why not mae my next few future possibly comming characters all Halflings of diferent classes? And not just the classic "Sneaky rogue" types, But fighters and barbarians and casters and all sorts! xD
And so I wonder, What classes do you all enjoy playing as a halfling?

Most helpful in a party? Bard. Maybe Detective bard.
Most FUN? that would be barbarian... :)
best line: "I know what you're thinking... you're wondering to yourself, did he rage for six rounds, or only five? Well to tell you the truth in all this excitement I kinda lost track myself. But being this is a 44 inch Great Ax, the most powerful hand weapon in the world and could take your head clean off in one crit, you've gotta ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya, punk?"

I've really enjoyed playing a couple of halfling druids. One was an Osirian desert druid in the Pathfinder Society. The other was a world walker druid who later took up the nature warden prestige class in a Kingmaker campaign.
Something that I haven't tried yet that looks like fun is the mouser swashbuckler archetype. Facing big opponents? Dart in underneath them and wreak havoc from below.
One class that's particularly effective for halflings is cavalier. Since their mounts are generally medium sized, they don't need any special feats to ride in dungeons and other confined spaces.

Hey! I prefer to call myself "a dog delivery system"! My mount (named "A.C.") is much better at this adventuring stuff than I am, I just keep him out of trouble and open doors for him and that sort of thing...

Never played one, but after reading this thread I might have to try a Halfling Bard. The DEX bonus is useful, the STR penalty isn't that bad, since Bards don't necessarily have to be melee types, and the +1 to hit, AC, and saving throws helps keep you alive to buff the rest of the party. Plus I'm having visions of all the singing from the "Lord of the Rings" and thinking that halflings would just make great Bards.

20 Level Bard named Pan
20 level paladin named Betsy Ross
20 level Sorc named Scorcha Sackov
Level 2 rogue/6ranger/12 barbarian named Ayn Bonnie
Level 2 monk/18 Cleric named Dadde Warbuxxx

Sorcerer. Lots of power in an unassuming little package. Easy to play and the racial traits lend themselves well to the class.
Pick up Silent and Still Spell metamagic feats and not much will be able to stop you from using your magic, not even if you're bound, gagged, and naked.

Barbarian 100% all day long.
It is tons of fun to run around dealing 30+ damage with your 3ft tall PC. The other players will think it is hilariously funny, mostly because it is. Most fun I ever had with a PC.
yep, barbarian. Nobody expects the halfling barbarian! Savage Technologist archetype + 3 levels of URogue lets you two-hand with dex to hit/damage, rage for extra dex and if some pesky thing can't be hulk smashed you shoot it with your buckler gun [also getting dex damage]. ;)

Is AM BARBARIAN in your party? Then Nunchucks...
No, you ARE the Nunchucks >__>
BARBARIAN NOT USE HALFLING AS NUNCHUCKS. THIS AM BECAUSE HAFLING HALF BE PULLED IN HALF FOR HALF-CHUCKS, OR ELSE AM TYING TWO HALFLINGS TOGETHER BY HAIR, WHICH AM LARGE SIZE WEAPON AND INVOKING -4 SIZE PENALTY.
PROPER USE FOR HALFLING, IF AM REALLY DETERMINED TO WEAPONIZE HALFLING, AM TO HAVE HALFLING ALSO BE BARBARIAN AND THEN USE HALFLING AS SPEAR.
NOTHING SAY 'FEEL TRUE WRATH OF BARBARIAN HATE MACHINE' LIKE LANCE THAT AM ACTUALLY TWFING URBAN BARBARIAN HALFLING DUAL WIELDING SPECIALIZED KATAR WITH 3 LEVELS IN UNCHAINED ROGUE FOR FINESSE POWERS WHO AM ALSO ABLE SUNDER SPELLS.

not going to ask about your interest in " bound, gagged, and naked" halflings... simply NOT GOING TO GO THERE!
