[QUOTE="half-dragon dragon, post: 4922663, member: 51211"] Very happy to see that you are/might be making some more classes for trailblazer. 1)Personally, my suggestion is to just not mince words and call the class Warmage. I know there is already a class by that name, but I still think warmage is the simplest and most straightforward name for the "gish" class. 2) I honestly like zealot as the class name, so stick with it. 3) Same as number 2, I like trickster as the name for the wizard/rogue combo 4) Don't have much to say about the bard, never been interested in them much so I don't feel its my place to weigh in on this. 5) While I have to agree somewhat with what the designers of 4e said about no needless symmetry and not trying to fill in the grid, I still think there is a lot of design space to explore. Mind you, I am a little biased towards at least filling the fighter/wizard hybrid class since its my favorite archetype. I will say that I think it'd be kinda cool to look at a couple of the classes from 4e as well. My interests namely are the warden and the avenger. The warden because I think it'd be fun to have another 'wild' half-caster warrior that shared the shapeshifting aspect of the druid, but focused on the hybrid form. The avenger I think could fill the cleric/rogue archetype. Anyway, just my thoughts. [/QUOTE]
