I would love to tank, but I'm not good at it. I like to be needed, more so my first time around to experience all the group content. So I'm going with a healing Cleric, and yes I'm a good healer.
I love Rogues, and been doing Kung FU for 25 years, and would love to be a Monk. But they will come later.
(I am basing this on EQ1 vanilla classes - which is the blueprint for Pantheon)
Think blueprint is to strong a word plus there is some Vanguard in there as well.
Ok does this change your mind? (brad mcquaid talking about Pantheon)
Already seen that and foundation does not mean blueprint so unless you can find me a quote from brad saying the word blueprint then nope it does not change my mind. Yes the inspiration comes from EQ and Vanguard, that would be obvious but blueprint lol, nope.
Ah, to agree to disagree but he still tries to maintain that blurprint means foundation so obviously he doesn't agree to disagree and wants to be right under stealth lol.
Nice try though.
EQ-Vanguard the foundation but updated to a modern group focused mmo.
Not enough info on the other classes yet. And its become apparent that while they may be very similar to EQ classes in some cases in others maybe not (Druid). Other wise......... what no Bard? LOL

Not to be nitpicky, but that was also three years ago. Are you sure EQ1 is still the only thing he is pulling from, despite the many posts from fans who promote Vanguard as well? If he is really deaf to his Vanguard fans, he's in for some trouble.
That was 2 years ago, and holds totally true today. Yes, they will use things learned from Vanguard. I would hope class design in particular, as playing a melee in EQ with 2 abilities will not cut it in 2017. That and Vanguard classes were the best of any of the 30+ mmo I've played - by a landslide.
I don't really pick a class in games,i usually like to play them all,that is why i hate altaholic games. If a game has only one enjoyable class that i want to play,well it's not much of a game.

Vanguard had awesome classes and IMO was a hell of a game too. But to say the best classes out of any MMO - that's not an opinion I share.
I dont man , think i would agree with him , if you take Vanguards classes(the enitre group) as a whole , and put it up against any other games (entire group) , i think it would come out on top .. Only other games i can think of that had so many unique well done classes , is DAoC and Warhammer... And Vanguard imo beats out both of these ..
As a practicing altoholic I should be able to pick multiple classes cause that's how I role.

Collectively - maybe.
Still taken individually from games
EQ1 Enchanter - come on now, probably the most amazing class of all time - crazy number of options and utility
DAoC warrior - active shield block made the class feel like a TRUE tank, never have I felt so tanky in any game
Vanguard disciple - just so good, maybe OP but really loved the class
AoC - Herald of Xotli - yes AoC's melee combat mechanics made a lot of classes feel really good - but Xotli was a great class
Ya, that was more of an in general statement. Disciple was my favorite class of all time. Even if it wasn't as OP, it was an amazing way of bridging the melee and martial arts with healing capabilities. If I had 1 wish for Pantheon's classes, it would be to see a class like this again.

Nothing, just sit back and enjoy
I have to be brutally honest with myself.

Dire Lord sounds cool and unique so its that for me
Rogue and Monks type classes are usually under powered and never start with much love.....Never could figure that one out.
Add that everyone seems to hate playing with Rogues.
Nice try though.

That's the ticket.

OK, I'm not judging.
Is there a bard class in the list, didn't see one.
