    BHS already confirmed the next class will be female locked and will not be a healer. They have also hinted towards a witch class so we may see that some time in the future.

    I'm just going to add on to this to clarify and avoid misunderstanding-- the thing about "Witch class" is just speculation based on what was discussed between BHS and someone from JTERA(?). They were discussing about designing new class and the JP guy proposed two ideas, which were Kunoichi (Ninja) and Witch, along with their description:
    JP original text:
    Blueholeの新クラスを作るチームが話し合い、エリーンを活かせるクラスとして、素早く攻撃ができる「くノ一」か、杖を巧みに操って攻撃をする「ウィッチ」の2つに絞られました。そのうえで今回は、ド派手なスキルを使え、さらにアクション性が高く本作と相性がいいという理由から「くノ一」になりました。

    KR translated:
    Bluehole의 신클래스 개발팀이 토론한 결과, 엘린을 부각시킬수 있는 클래스로 빠르게 공격할수 있는 인술사 혹은 지팡이를 자유자재로 다뤄서 공격을 하는 마녀이 두가지로 의견이 좁혀졌습니다. 또한 이번 클래스는 화려한 기술을 사용하며 액션성이 높고 본작(테라)와 궁합이 좋다는 이유로 인술사로 정해졌습니다.

    (crappy) EN translated:
    Bluehole’s new class development team had a debate which resulted in two things for Elin’s new class: a Ninja that can attack quickly or Witch that can attack by using a staff freely. But Ninja have been chosen as it has high-action with dynamic skills which will go well with TERA.

    This doesn't mean it will or will not be witch class, but it "might" be if the idea wasn't completely scraped off.

    Though it's just speculation i posted long ago when the whole player conference thing was held in June 12 and I translated all the info i could get.

    I wish I could play whatever I want, this gender lock is ridiculous.

    With all of these revamps to existing classes, does BHS even have the time to make a new class?

    as you can see from the GM/dev note, they have separate teams for different tasks. wolfpack seems to be generally in charge of contents, calvenstein seems to be in charge of balancing, and the other guy i think it was quackquack who was the designer of the Twisted Lakan's Prison, coming after 30 man raid. i forgot who designed manglemire but his dev note mentioned dungeon designing team. theres also another guy who discussed future revamp plans too. i wont be surprised if different Developer posts dev note about the new class.

    Meh, we should get another healer class to even things out

    Or another tank that doesn't have to reach 65 before tanking

    Or go with a summoning class if they're going DPS again

    Seeing that they can revamp their animations for older classes, why not expand their animations to have male/other-race classes for the current locked classes? I thought it'd make sense...
  • Tenshi1Tenshi1 ✭✭✭✭
    ^I still say a castanic male ninja would be really sexy

    That only means that developpers have only consideration for Elin/female players.

    From what I heard, you got it wrong. Most of the female characters are played by male players. So that would mean the developers mainly consider male players.

    if they are so numerous why all those bugs and poor optimization are still here....... *confused*

    separate =/= numerous
    You could put 2-3 people together and call that a team. And with the amount of workload piling, fixes/changes/adjustments are bound to take a long while (if you're hopeful enough to think they're even fixing anything anyway :p ).

    They should work to make other races and genders for the classes we have. Think of the money they would make on race changers. Or make a ton of appearance options. More money

    They're a very small development studio.
