i there im pretty new to the world of ROM but im a quick learner and one thing that i have learned is one way to bring in more players while also adding a couple of unique fun new classes. first class i was thinking since its pretty much the time of the vampire with twilight and stuff like that is to make a vampire class. that class right there i think would bring in probably at least a few extra hundred members because theres techniquley not a game out there with an actualy vampire class or a lykan class for that matter. so if we are the first and only for quite some time to acutally have a vampire and a lykan class i think it would jump the ratings up. now for the second class is the lykan like i just mentioned. it to hasnt really been released in the video game world. well except for in wow you could choose a lykan as a race but that doesnt really count. so what im trying to do is get enough people to agree to this so hopefully the makers of ROM will make thoughs two classes for the next chapter or update. I love the game already as is but i think games are more fun when you have other peopel to play the game with and hopefully these two new classes will do that. Worst case scenario it doesnt attract as many new players and we are stuck with two possibly fun classes.

I don't know how I feel about these classes, kinda on the fence. However, I do think that the fact that chapter VI didn't come with a new race nor new classes was very stale. It was better than releasing dwarfs and being too lazy to put females in though. At least they got the foresight this time to say "if you cant do it right, don't do it at all". However, I would not be opposed to new classes... With the exception of that they have enough trouble balancing what they have. Two more will just mean more OP, or ridiculously UP class combos.

If they were to do new classes though here are the suggestions:

Any race can have them
4th class slot
new zone that gets you from 50-70

Any variation on this will guarantee a fail, imo.

That is what ROM really needs, to take influence from "twilight and stuff like that". And once we do that, we can step up to "50 Shades of Grey" for our literary influences.

thats what im talking about making new areas on the map like a land that is battered with vampire and lykan war. since everyone knows that lykans and vampires never have gotten along. i even have some neat suggestions on what the classes could contain in them and some of the skill types that they could have if anyone wants to here them. so i think that they should make a completely new chapter completely dedicated to these two new classes. oh and i agree these two classes need to be universal to all the races

ill come up with something if ya like. I just would like to keep the fantasy element focused a bit

off the top of my head a Tinker type class could be interesting.
and since you borrowing from other ethos and games. why not a shadow knight class. "hybrid necro/pally" or a barbarian class "limited to cloth. with the upside of being high rage/agro"

Actually having a new race would be nice, my thought is that since the whole game, so far, is focused on dragonkind, why dont we actually have a playable race of dragons? With that you could then pick a type, such as fire, wind, earth or ice and have skills/spells determined based on your type. Being dragons fly, you would probably have a natural speed buff and with that limit the ability to ride a mount. The possibilities would be quite broad as to what you could do as a dragon. just my quick though :)

Take care and good hunting out there all

Dwarves need to "discover" their female counterparts so all the women who complain that they can't play a male toon will actually roll one & play it :)

As far as Vampires & Were-types? meh... RW could give us a Holloween event where we can get some transformation pots like the Gingerbread man one ( +20% stam )... but they could be a little more complex...

ie,

Vampire Transform Pot:
Duration: 3600 seconds
Effect: +5% all stats during daytime; +10% all stats during nighttime; -50% resistance to Light & Fire attacks with a chance to get a Burned debuff for 20 secs where the player receives an additional 20% damage from Light and Fire attacks. Once this debuff occurs, it cannot occur again for 40 seconds.

Lycan Transform Pot:
Duration: 3600 seconds
Effect: +5% to Str, Dex, Stam; -3% to Int, Wis; Player has a 50% chance to resist white hits; When hit, there is a chance that AutoRegen buff will occur for 20 secs where the Player will recover stamina x 5 hp every 5 seconds; once this buff occurs, it cannot occur again for 40 seconds.

Special Effect: When Lycan Transformation is in place and a full moon is up, Str, Dex and Stam are increased +10% and MoonRegen buff will appear for the duration of the transformation. During the MoonRegen buff, Player will recover Stam/3 hp every 2 seconds.

There.. no new classes, just a couple of transform pots.

well the reason i stated that they should have these two classes is because i know for a fact that it would bring more players to the game just by hearing that you could be a vampire or werewolf. im not saying im so big on this idea for me but honestly i dont think that they would be half bad classes. i already know probably over 2-300 people from a forum i saw that they are looking for a good mmo that has these two classes or races. so if there is that many ppl in just that one forum then who knows how many more there are out there that want this but havent spoken up about it.

i agree that dragon class would be pretty cool but to be honest i think it might be a little better if it was like a dragon born. someone that is human but has dragon blood in them and has the power of the dragons. this would also give the makers the chance to add that ice elemental spell class that ive heard that alot of ppl including myself want in the game. ice has always been a classic spell type in mages or spellcasters in general just like fire and lightning.
