Whats next? Nightfall hasn't even been released yet. We haven't even seen the balanced versions of them. How can anyone guess whats next?

But for the fun of it. A frog throwing melee attacker.

I vote for suicide bombers, mostly because I just don't like monks.

lol a whole new meaning to EoE bomb groups!

anyway they have very creative devs, i myself didnt see anything happening after factions classes but im very imppressed with the dervish and paragon from what ive seen. Im sure they will come out with more things but id rather see for chapter 4, 2 casters classes. I mean assassains arent casters neither are paragons and dervish's and ritualists dont pack much damage. I wanna see another caster class, they can steal ideas from neverwinter nights becasue im sure no one would notice and there are good ideas in that game!

Something with a massive 2-handed sword. RAWR!

Actually, thats really all I could think of...2-handed swords and maces...

So maybe a superKnight, with a big ol' 2H sword...and a Berserker with a mace/flail/large spikey ball that crushes things...

Maybe we'll even see classes that share attributes, a new class that also revolves around Swordsmanship?

No one would notice is they stole from DnD? Well, I guess not... pretty much every fantasy based game does already.

Well they could always go with my Samurai idea, with a melee units that slices through targets with movement attacks.

Haha, hard not to :~)

And yeah... Neverwinter Nights is based directly on DnD. Nothing is "stolen" because it is supposed to be a game a version of DnD.

I want to see hand to hand (not wrestling holds... or pins... it's going to look lame when you are grappling with a rot wallow or something) but fist fighting. Kicking, punching, etc. Could use things like katars. I ask you... is it a Shocking Katar of Fortitude... or tesla glove ...

Or someone that fights with a staff. Not a magical staff... a quarter staff. WHACK!

Brass knuckles FTW!
Sundering Brass Knuckles of Fortitude... *dreams*

On a serious note:
I do like the idea of Samurai.
