idea for other possible classes

if a ranger is like a druid / warrior
and shadow knight like necro / warrior
and paladin is like cleric / warrior
and beastlord is like shaman / monk
and a bard is like a rogue / mage ? or wiz or shaman?

what would we call a thieven healer
or warrior rogue "ninja"
or wizard cleric "blue mage ?"
a enchanting thief

i think it would be cool on a new sever to let us combine classes
i enjoyed asheron's call for 5 years and anarchy online both let you choose your skills as you level. so you could end us a sword fighting healer with mage skills too, of couse not as powerful as the base class but can be very useful to be able to heal and cast some buffs on your self as you fight melee.
i just rememberd guild wars is like that choose one class as main and a 2nd one to add into it.

i know we really don't need a new class for eq. as the game has improved down time. now and even alowing us to zone after log out for 6 hrs to home city.
i'm just wonder what other possiblitys are there.

The game has already evolved to where there isn't much class definition now. So many have asked for so much the "utility" has lessen the gap between classes to the point if you lack utility you are seen as less desirable to groups.

This needs to change soon or the game will end up almost dead like the games you mentioned, EQ has lasted this long for it's own reasons and shall continue so once there is more class definition. If you want the "mixed" classes go play the game that allows it.

Necrochanter would be sweet.

FFXI sucks.

I seriously can't fathom a single class they could add that wouldn't just be redundant. There's plenty of DPS, there's plenty of healing (though some sort of redefined healing class might be interesting), and there's plenty of utility crap. We're fine. They're done.

I AM THE VOICE OF HE WHO IS CALLED I AM!

So that's final.

Heck I like a druid with a supper slow, can take a hit like a Warror, C6 like a chanter, and might as well have a good pet to. other than that I wouldn't change much..

All classes should be replaced with the colored mages:

Mage + Cleric = Blue Mage
Mage + Druid = Green Mage
Mage + Zerker = Pink Mage
Mage + Necro = Black Mage
Mage + Warrior = Red Mage
Mage + Paly = White Mage
Mage + Ranger = Brown Mage

a back stabbing mage, who's pets have back stab if behind. that could be fun.

back stabbing enchanter, charm or mez the mob and then get behind and stab

warrior /mage useing spells to enchance weapons. like puting fire dmg onto the sword, improving armor

ranger / mage , again enchance bow and arrows

druid mage plant pets

God Class

Wizard Nukes with, Necro Dots and Mana Regen, Shaman HoTs and Canni, Monk FD and warrior HP......

I think a mounted knight class would be friggin awesome. Where all skill modifiers are bettered while mounted. Would be a mix of beastlord/warrior/ranger. With the mount doing kicking and biting damage when close added in. Damage able to be split from the knight to the horse and so on. In a semi canni type fashion where the mounts health is switched for the knights. And like the aa's for tanks and lower level mobs the under 10% auto kill chance. Would like to see aa for charging lance attack that would have a 1 in million auto kill proc.

Would they ever let you dual class? And just go by most restrictive? A war mage would be cool. But the war would suffer becasue he would loose all his plate unless it was all all. And he would not have the huge mana pool or he would suffer as a tank. As melle ger is not high in mana. Then make class specific armor have greter stats. I play a pally and would pick up SK. Give me a few more offensive spells and i could keep almost all of my gear.
