adding classes

ok before you close this and say no way hear me out. i and many other people would like to see a couple new classes. for starters a couple days ago i invited a friend to play and he said he wont play cause there are no lycan class in it and personally i think lycan class would be a good idea especially for those who dont really relate to some of the other classes in the game, then it brings up the whole discussion of weather lycan is a race or class well im thinking it could be both call the race lycan and the class preditor only usable with lycan race. i made some basic about the class like it should beable to wear up to chain or maybe evan not aloud to wear anything and then for a weapon i was thinking you could add a new set of weapon that goes right above daggers called claws for starter the beginning claw could be like brass knuckles and then it would duel weild claws unable to equip a off hand item each set of clawws would have to sets of stats the claw drops would be a single pair either consisting of claw for defense and one for offence or duel offensive claws for it being found in pairs may not be as good now that i think about so might not want to add that and then for secondary class skills there first could be like every attack has a certain percent to cause bleed equal to 10% of damage delt every 2 seconds for 10 seconds and then for there first primary could be called scratch which in turn also lowers opponents defenses by so much... thats all i have thought of for now but i think it could be a good idea i would like to hear some feedback and possibly have RoM add this new class. dont think of it as twight but ass underworld revolution :p

How about no freaking way? That works? And didn't we have a thread like this already?

Edit: Yeah, we did. Linkasaurus.

Oh, and people who have more than 3 classes are clinically insane.

I'm sorry.... but I hate Twilight, so I vote no ^^

God forbid if twilight fans take over this game lol

On a serious note, I think the atmosphere of those classes feel out of place. Both are fantasy, but there's just... a line drawn between Vampires, Warewolves and the dark magic of classical fantasy of many MMO's that this one is based on. I don't know, maybe its just me. But it feels like if they add werewolves, it would be as incongruous as if they added missiles or spaceships to this game.

A Therianthrope worked in Diablo 2 (druids could turn into either a wolf or a bear), so it isn't really out of the question for fantasy of the genre RoM falls into. That said however, I still don't see it happening. I really just don't think the programmers over at RW have the skill to do such a thing, because Battle Monk. Additionally, we just got two new classes with a new race a chapter ago. Got two new classes and a new race back in chapter 2 as well. So with that trend, the next time we MAY see something new would be in chapter 8 or 9 but I really don't think we need anything else. We need to have what we already have fixed, as there are enough problems with the classes we have in game at this time that needs to be fixed without adding anything else to the mix.

I'd be perfectly ok with a wolf transformation, just not a werewolf...

Well it was a werewolf or a werebear type deal ruisen.

@jasomnxx - this game uses the standard archetypal character layouts of the D&D typeset. So if people can't relate to the 58 choices available, then they need to go play something else, as this game or genre of game is just not for them. No other way about it.

The druid transformations in Diablo 2 really didn't work very well, they never scaled properly and turned out to be pretty useless at the higher levels. You also lost the ability to use any other skills or equipment when transformed. As the way profit comes into this game is the selling of items related to gear to eliminate that in a character is counter productive. . The druid transformations looked pretty but is was a cheap parlor trick with no use in the game.
The time to develop this type of character and set its progression is immense and would they probably have to shut down all other development in this game and many of the others that they run to even attempt it with little or no chance of success.
They can't even make an effort to balance the current class of characters why in the world would you want to make an even bigger mess?

I'd have to say no to adding new classes (we were meant to be getting the rhino people as a race so who knows what class they will bring if they ever come). if it's just a transformation thing your friend was after , the game is full of transformation pots from all manner of creatures within the game... i have amassed quite a few during the current event, plus there are set items that give transformation also. Just have him/her come into the game and try it out first... then if it's not what he/she is looking for they can go on their merry way
