  • I'd honestly like to see the gender & race locks be lifted before any new classes be created...

    Baraka ninja....that'd be something to see...
  • I think some of the discussion here has been great. I think a stealth mechanic could be done really well... Just my opinion of course. It could even have a stamina bar as a resource. This way you couldn't stealth for eternity.
  • hmm why not a new race? just a thought although probably woundnt work

    Why not re-open the gender/race locked?
  • A Baraka ninja is all we need for this [filtered].
  • To comment on some posts about the Warrior...the Warrior is considered an evasion tank...as well as it wields two swords. I was thinking more of a dual dagger wielding class. That would be able to have some close melee AoE moves, stun locking moves, and stealth moves. I am not talking like permanent stealth similar to Age of Conan, Rift, or World of Warcraft, but a stealth system that utilizes a fatigue meter...so you can't stay in stealth the entire time. Perhaps even a move that you can perform to go back into stealth in the middle of combat, but it does not break combat...like a disorientation move. I mean, a quick escape move that puts you back into stealth would be nice. I mean they tested this stealth mechanic in the storyline when you show up in a portion of a dungeon all see through to eavesdrop on the Scions of Lok. I think that would work as a system of stealth.

    Overall I think this would be a nice addition to the already stellar members in the characters. Just my opinion of course.

    A dagger. Class sounds more like a cloth class
  • I was thinking more leather armor. Similar to how they have rogues setup in other games. However, we could go off the guidelines Age of Conan used with their Assassin class, which utilized dual daggers, but wore silk (lighter than cloth) as armor. They were extremely deadly if played right, but you had to make sure you did not bite off more than you could chew because you were super squishy. I can atone to that personally as I played one very close to endgame. They were super fun because of the high burst DPS, and sustained DPS aspects of the class. Plus you had abilities to make sure to hit multiple mobs in front of you...so you could take down a group, if done properly. I died many times, but it made me learn how to play the class better and smarter.

    I just think this would be a good idea to add to the world of Tera. Maybe we could call in a fun name like a Smuggler...or Buccaneer, or something that sounds cool.
  • Here is a link to the Assassin class in Age of Conan, if someone would like a reference to what I am describing.

  • I think a samurai-like class would be nice. Leather, a long katana, and MALE. It would be a sustained DPS, but with some buffs and debuffs, and have some mobility. Of course, its just an idea. I like samurais...

    I do agree that a new class type would honestly be rather a great idea. however maybe something for the Mage types, seeing as we have been handed so many new Melee classes. that it feels like the mage type classes have been left out? and maybe a class that isn't Gender or Race locked? >.>

    Summoner styled class? or maybe a Beast Class where you can tame monsters to be your pets that fight along with you? would be rather interesting taming BAMs that are your pets :)

    I like the idea of a new mage... I think sorcerers are nice, but we need another mage, maybe one that have only one element, or, like you said, a summoner...

    That sounds very nice. I like this idea too.

    yeah while i agree i didnt see any reason to bring this up because its not going to happen but i was being serious about the idea of a new race even though i doubt that would happen since it would take too much time to do i am supposing

    BHS so desperate to retain players XD But new healer would be nice, though wouldn't that just in case mystic hate? People tend to prefer priests overall in most cases.

    Are we playing the same game? People want mystics nowadays, and mystics have always been the go-to for score runs.

    @topic - I can't really see them coming out with anything other than a healer as the next class, but I'm sort of dreading it if they do. With each new class being released as more and more overpowered, I think we could expect any new heal class to make both mystic and priest completely obsolete. The two haven't ever even been balanced, and we're not getting the talent system that gives priests a little more support power, so we're even more lacking than KTERA priests are. I've put in too much work on my priest, so I wouldn't ever think about swapping to mystic as my main, no matter how good it is, but I'm afraid that we'd have no choice with a new healer.

    And dual dagger leather class? That's basically warrior. We don't need another carbon copy of a class we already have...nor do we need yet another leather class.
