For me it is Lalafell Thaumaturge. It kind of reminds me of the RDM I used to play and enjoy.

    Right now its between Lalafell & Mi'kote Lancer. I'll decide on my race when I finally get to play, but as of now, thats where I'm at. :)

    Roegadyn Miner & Musketeer.

    The name would be The Pacifista.

    And I'd use a shotgun called Peacemaker.

    Just how cool is that?

    Im going to make a Lalafell, lancer  and I'm going to reincarnate my FFXI taru. But Im sure I will be job hoping like crazy since I love the variety.

    Should have thrown a poll in there... at least for the class.  Is it too late to add one?

     

    I'm thinking I'll be a Duskwight Archer to start.  Then I may try out Thaumaturge and sub the Archer's invisibility ability to help with survival/enmity control.

     

    By the way, there is a website out there with leaked alpha info for around 20-25 abilities for each class.  I wish I could provide the link but I don't think I'm allowed to do so.  Anyway, all the classes sound really fun!

    Musketeer class hasn't been revealed.. how do you knwo it exists?  Plus, I read a lot of your posts in other forums, your knowledge of the game seems to go beyond what has been released to the press...

  • HyanmenHyanmen Member UncommonPosts: 5,357

    ho ho ho :)

    I do have my sources..

    I think he was joking about Musketeer.  As for his other posts, there are definitely several sources of leaked Alpha info out there on the net but I don't think we can list them here without getting in trouble =(

  • Naturalist99Naturalist99 Member Posts: 182

    As far as I know of the classes on the website, id end up a Midland Hyur Gladiator, but if more classes show up, then i might just change, im into single sword wielding though so gladiaor fits me, dual wielding prefered though and I dont know if gladiators can, so if one a dual wielding class shows up (that doesnt use though fist attachment weapons already) then that me.

    MMOs played: Too many
    Watch List: FFXIV, CoH:GR, GW2, SWTOR, TERA, Earthrise

    A long time ago I heard each discipline would have five classes.  If there is a musketeer, it would be pretty interesting if it was a Disciple of Magic...

    I'll be a Dunesfolk Lalafell using whatever I find to be the most useful support/healing based build.

    People need to remember that you'll be using skills from multiple classes at once so your active class won't necessarily define much about your character.

    With regards to the musketeer thing, it'll be a build title. I'm pretty sure that players won't be referring to their roles based on class, but rather using the title the game assigns you based on the combination of skills you equip. I suspect that's what Hyanmen is referring to (though please correct me if I'm wrong!).

  • Hellscream07Hellscream07 Member Posts: 123

    Thinking about a Wildwood Elezen Conjurer, although there probably are more Disciplines of Magic to be announced, so we'll see :)

    That, and it seems that we'll be able to use cross-skills from other jobs as well, meaning that it's not as easy as to level up one job.

    The fact that you can sub abilities from different classes is one of the most exciting ideas of the game to me.  Not only does it help with customization but it really rewards you for leveling up multiple jobs since it sounds like you can take an ability from here and an ability from there.

    Having said that, I personally believe you will still be primarily defined by your main class but your sub-abilities will really give the player some unique flavor.  If your a tank, do you want to sub some more attacks?  A healing ability?  A damage shield?  I really hope they don't limit sub abilities too much and that this is how it works.

    And no, he wasn't refering to Musketeer as a build title... nothing is confirmed but there is some interesting info out there on the net...

    Hmmm done some searching but not dug up any rumours or leaks on any new classes, guess I'll just have to wait and see. :S

    I hope this also!

    Please SE do this!

    That also fits good with the ability to spent your own attribute points.

    If you want to make a paladin like character, make a Gladiator with some healing and protecting spells and spent your attribute points in such a way that you can be a good Paladin like character.

    I am so hoping this will be the case... If they do it right then you could create a lot of jobs with just a few classes (they do need a little more classes then they have now.)

     

    For race and class choise:

    I think I will try a male character from the beginning this time. Probably an Archer, or Gladiator,( I usually play healer or mage) race: Hyur or Elezen.

    Whichever male captures my heart :D

    I was pretty sure what I wanted to be a while back but I just don't know anymore.

     

    I was going to pick...

    Male Elezen

    Black Mage, or Ranger type class

    Alchemist

     

     

    I just don't know what I want to be anymore though D:

  • SoulSurferSoulSurfer Member UncommonPosts: 1,024

    Miquote Archer, or follow the ways of the Mnk, with Pugulist.

    Well, S-E has not said one way or another if there will be more classes or not. 

    However, there is a lot of information out there on the net (which unfortunately I can't repeat here) that makes it look like there will be a lot more classes.  However, it is unknown how many of those classes will be ready at beta, release or added after release.

    Personally, I believe they will be adding more classes before release.

  • RollotamasiRollotamasi Member, Newbie CommonPosts: 898

    Regardless of if it s in game or not I will still play but I would LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE to se Samurai again.
