nice nice, maybe we see an overworked version in GW2 ^^ that kills then the ugly wannabe angel/bard-paragon.

and then instead of the stupid paragon, we receive the "Hunter" which fights with Spears and Boomerangs, based on an australian Campaign ...
makes much more sense then those dumb paragons oO *hates wannabe classes*

I like the Australian Theme to mix with Nightfall^^.
I think Anet wanted something new so they thought of a Paladin Guy bu people thinkit's a Bard.
Or it is a Hybrid^^.
Intresting, But I perfer for Anet to mix the Paragon and the Warrior.
And leave most of the stuff to the Bard^^.

Seems like they were making a Corsair and Chronomancer^^!
Juicy, Juicy^^!
It was said this was from a discontinued Campaign^^!

Hey, I love the Paragon, especially since its the theme of nightfall. BTW, the bard looks like Queen Amidala from Starwars.... *Shrugs*

Pics added^^!

The bard didn't look that interesting, these new ones look much cooler, kinda makes me think they are pre/un-tormented margonites.
Some of those looks would kick the hell out of plenty of the stuff we have now.

But still mkes me go thinking, How would their Chronomancers were to be?
What gamestyle and etc.

Quid Pro Quo · Nov 02, 2007, 06:10 AM // 06:10

I'm willing to bed that Chronomancers use new unique weapons and I'm also willing to bet that they will be in Guild Wars 2 where they can rebalance PvE so that they don't have to restrict the power of these classes.

Chronomancers probably focus on disabling enemies as a true crowd control class. Slowing skill recharges, attack speeds, movement speeds, and boosting them for their team mates. I'm assuming that a time altering class like this would also have to deal with reversing of their buffs and debuffs which could be how they manage energy.

All this is a guess of course as far as I know they could just expand on form skills like Dervish get but focus on those instead.

i think these classes are meant for extra campaigns for guild wars BEFORE Anet decided to make GW:2, as i remember from one magazine, theres more guildwars versions (including utopia which ring some bells for me), so..im hoping Anet would release these awesome classes in guild wars 2 in addition to the 10classes avaliable atm...

Chronomancers is a great idea...as said by Quid Pro Quo ^^

I think the corsair is just a picture of the Nf corsairs.
correct me if I am wrong though.

Ryoness · Nov 02, 2007, 09:37 AM // 09:37

IMO, the chronomancer became the mesmer (assuming that these pics were pre-proph). Chronomancer is kinda generic and common, but making them mesmers added a sort of intrigue to the class. Unfortunately mesmers are underused in GW...

[M]agna_[C]arta · Nov 02, 2007, 10:58 AM // 10:58

No, if you did go to the links it's the Concept Arts for EotN, and it is said in wiki find for Utopia this was a Campaign based on Aztecs which was somehwere in the Tarnished Cost, I think the Chronomancers are using Asuran Technology.
Utopia was cancelled and they put some of it into EotN.
Leaving a 2 Professions, the Sidhe and other stuff^^.
