Hello everyone
I am interested in what sort of class organization you think is ideal. If you were organizing classes for a new edition of our favorite game, how would you do it? For me, it would go something like this:
Warrior base class with the following example builds:
Fighter - a generalist simple warrior who uses all weapons and armor
Weapons Master - a specialist on one weapon or class of weapons - example Sword Master, Archery Master
Brawler - an unarmed combat specialist
Skirmisher - a lightly armored warrior like a spell-less ranger
Build your own warrior
Gish base class with the following example builds:
Paladin - heavily armed divine magic user
Arcane Knight - heavily armed arcane magic user
Ranger - lightly armored divine magic user
Spell Sword - lightly armored arcane magic user
Monk - Arcane Hand to Hand specialist
Build your own gish
Scholar base class with the following example builds:
Cleric - divine magic specialist
Mage - arcane magic specialist
Unknown name - combined divine and arcane magic specialist
Build your own scholar
Specialist base class (focused on skills)
Rogue
Warlord
Unknown name - uses technology like an engineer or tinkerer
Build your own specialist
I would love to hear your opinions on how you would do it.
