So we've already had confirmed in an interview with GamerZero the following classes:FighterPaladinClericWarlordWizardRangerRogueIn another post here at EN World, WotC_Logan confirms:MonkThere's our 8 classes in the PHB. I'm not entirely thrilled -- I can handle druid being folded into a cleric 'tree', & barbarian into a fighter (or ranger?) tree, but...<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Why make the barbarian a tree but not the monk?</li> </ul> <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Whither the sorceror (or warlock)?</li> </ul> <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Why the apparently imbalanced allocation of classes for each role (i.e. unless they make monk a controller, there's only 1 controller & 3 of something else)?</li> </ul> <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">I'm particularly displeased that a revamped bard isn't currently scheduled for the initial core books. As I've said elsewhere, no matter what WotC may say about each new PHB (PHB2 in '09, PHB3 in '10, etc.) being core, there is NO WAY they will get every DM to accept that 'core' means more than the 3 initial books -- & players lose out because of that. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" /></li> </ul></blockquote>
