-Warrior (OH GOD A LIGHT BLUE! SOMEONE HELP! Soloing is hard :c )
-Magician (not the DD nuking Mage from WoW, but the pet master Magician from EQ1!!!)
-Necromancer (a TRUE necromancer, not these hipster necros from games like GW1, or even Eq2)
-Rogue (How many times will you let me stab you before the tank loses agro?)
-Ranger (How many hits can I ta....../dies..../dies from dieing)
-Cleric (You want ALL your HP back, now? Ok 
! )
-Shaman (Hey gnome, wanna look like a giant? /cast Grow)
-Monk (The soloing Melee/Dps!)
-Wizard (Teleports!)
These are the Nine core classes I'm hoping for! Anyone else 
?

You left out Bard?
Blasphemy!
There are 3 types of people in the world.
1.) Those who make things happen
2.) Those who watch things happen
3.) And those who wonder "What the %#*& just happened?!"
Dirty bards with your glowing feet, and instruments that play themselves. We don't serve your kind here!!!!
I can tell you for a FACT SOE developers are not smart enough to use the old UO skill system. They'll muck it up, and then add a skillcap of 75% max skill unless you buy a $15 skill unlocker token from their cash-shop. FOR ONE SKILL.
And where is the chanter? =P

over eight please...
god I hate it when there are only 8 classes.
Makes me wonder if the op actually played EQ1, how could he leave out Enchanter and Bard.
Because I was never interested in either of those :P!
I just posted what came to mind :'(, don't hurt me T^T.
I played EQ from December 14th, 2000 until November 2010 :]. The weird direction they took EQ back in '08 just drove me up the wall :I

Yes, i also like the beast lord that came with Luclin.
Yes :P, but those dirty tree huggers have no place in the heavens >:O!

How many classes are you hoping for?
My answer:
Let A = the number of classes in EQ1.
Let B = the number of classes in EQ2.
Let C = the number of classes in EQNext.
The number of classes I want: (A<= C <
To answer the question I hope they start on the low side and give room to add more as time goes on. It will also come down to what group and raid sizes they intend to go with, anyone's guess right now.
I am sure there will be crying if Beastlord isn't on the list.
Also hoping for viable non-combat pursuits like diplomacy in vg or entertainment in swg.

God I hope not.
What I loved about Rift in the beginning I now hate, 61 cookie cutter specs. I play MM for almost every fight so I can be the purge bitch along with every other rogue in my guild, so much for choices. Everyone doing every role not so much fun anymore, in 3.0 rogues and warriors can heal, so hey let's take 20 warriors they all wear plate. Not knocking Trion good company,but looking for more of a pure class system again hopefully I wouldn't mind a few ways to spec but not a crazy amount.
Somebody, somewhere has better skills as you have, more experience as you have, is smarter than you, has more friends as you do and can stay online longer. Just pray he's not out to get you.
Kind of tied between having lots and lots of differnece classes or none at all.
It all depends on the skill system they have in place. If the skills are interrelate and too much deviation increases the time it takes to learn anothe skill (i.e. Level 1 sword costs1000xp. Level 2 Sword costs 2000xp. Level 3 3000xp etc...The 2nd skill you learn, dagger, is in same school so costs slightly more to learn for level 1, 1200xp and 2400xp for level 2 and so on. But if you were to choose another school like magic then the cost for say level 1 healing spell is 2000xp).
If they had something like that I would enjoy it otherwise stick to classes
