[QUOTE="Kae'Yoss, post: 3733586, member: 4134"] I read that the sorcerer won't go away. I think it will still be a class. Now, the warlock could be something like a talent tree for the sorcerer, though. We already know that the wizards will be a controller. I guess that the sorcerer will be a striker instead. Because of the different roles. After all, we're not going to put paladins and clerics into one class (both use the divine source), or rogues and fighters (both use the martial source). Just like the those classes will use their sources in different ways, so will the arcane classes use the arcane source in a different way. It sounds a lot like the paladin being a core class, and I don't see why the warlock or sorcerer should be prestige classes, either. The concept isn't that specialised. I'd like a fair number classes that are relatively customisable. They should not be core classes that replace multiclass concepts. They did set themselves up for a number of classes in the future: By making classes a combination of power source (like arcane, divine, martial, later surely to be including things like psionics) and roles (defender, leader, controller, striker), they can easily create 4 classes for each new power source (I'll play prophet and predict that psionics will have classes by the names of psion, a controller; psychic warrior, a leader; soulknive, a defender; and wilder, a striker.)
