What classes haven't been done yet?

[Darklone]

A real necromancer. No cleric, no wizard.

A real archer. No specialised fighter.

A real adventurer/graverobber/treasurehunter (10 foot pole specialist).

A real witch.

A real jack of all trades (more like the 3.0 bard).

A real knight.

 

[Dragonhelm]

Jester.

There's one in the Dragon Compendium, in case you're interested.

 

[Geoffrey]

A spell-caster whose only power consists in conjuring, binding, and banishing other-planar entities.

 

[Shade]

A non-spellcasting, adventuring scholar (i.e. Daniel Jackson of Stargate).

 

[Nyaricus]

A real adventurer/graverobber/treasurehunter (10 foot pole specialist).

Dungeonscape will have a class that is purportedly exactly this - the Journeyman.

For players, the journeyman class is a cunning wanderer, a jack-of-all-trades who can cope with anything the dungeon throws at him.

Maybe not exactly that, but yeah, I'm interested, in any case

As for ones they haven't done yet:

• An acultural 'pugilist' class (think monk, but stripped of his Ki crap with 1/1 BAB, d10 HD, etc thrown in).
• A Duelist/Swashbuckler base class (really, the CW one was about a 3 level class)
• A Crusader/Champion of a church which works for any alignment (a Paladin for everyone!)
• A Noble class that is half decent and isn't in a campaign product.
• A Priest class which isn't a holy warrior (less BAB, armours, etc)
• A Cut-throat base class, like an assassin or the like. IOWs, A martial rogue.
• A Shaman class (that doesn't suck)

I think that's what WotC has to cover yet, IMO. There are very few archetypes you can't get with these and the core classes.

 

[Nyaricus]

A non-spellcasting, adventuring scholar (i.e. Daniel Jackson of Stargate).

Good one!

Hard to fly with D&Ds reliance on magic... I suppose if you threw in d8 HD, 6 or 8+Int SkP/level, 1/2 BAB and the Archivists' Dark Secret, the Bards' Bardic Knowledge, and somo more stuff in that vein, you'd get close to a balanced class.

[Cthulhudrew]

Magic Hacker.

 

[Vyvyan Basterd]

[*] A Crusader/Champion of a church which works for any alignment (a Paladin for everyone!)

I'd like to get your thoughts on the Champion class I posted over here:

The Champion

 

[Quartz]

The outdoorsy Lumberjack PRC also strikes me as interesting.

You're okay.

 

[Dragonhelm]

A non-spellcasting, adventuring scholar (i.e. Daniel Jackson of Stargate).

Dragonlance's War of the Lance sourcebook has the Master class that can provide just such a character.
