Hello, posting my post on the english forum for more visibility
I’m really really hoping that in the (near) future we would get another 4 specs classe, like the druid, but actually FUN because let’s be honest, druid has it’s own artistic direction ok, but feels SOOO annoying to play, GCDs on everything, having to build multiple gears, no visual or audio impact like a paladin when something hits, CLEAR LACK of utilities (basically less than any other character in any specs, we just have a good disenrage and silence in boomie).
Class like Tinker or else would be perfect, lore-friendly, already in game, already heroes, visual opposite of what we have already, can be done on many races …
The class NEEDS to be fun but also viable so let’s see what I would suggest :
1- Utilities : like group-wide buff for haste for exemple, a 2% or something similar / a mass stup or silence / a kick every 15 sec like normal classes / a disenrage (we lack of those) / a sleep not restricted to types / a groupe CD DEF (like a tinker would use chemicals to boost you) / invisibility, with a projection system if tinker (no vanish tho)
2- 4 Specs : melee and ranged dps, ranged healer, melee tank (for a tinker it could be turrets, riffles or one-handed + off-hand or shield for DPS, mecha for TANK → we need a VISIBLE tank for once, drones and dart rifle for healing)
3- Bloodlust : if only on healer it’s fine but not great, but the bloodlust is SO requested or required that we need another class with it
4- Fun spells, that have no real purposes except making the classe fits into a narrative (breathing underwater, projection of images …)
5- The mechanical mole from the Iron Dwarfs if tinker or similar (since portals are everywhere and mages are not needed, a transportation system like the moles would be great to farm different / old content)
P.S : since the reveal of the new interest for housing farming, it would be great to have something to explore old areas
6- Minor buff from a job, like 1% poly from engi, 1% mastery from forging
7- POLYVALENCE : like a class that would have EVERYTHING (and i’m serious), but in less attractive or impactful ways than others : like a DH tank or warrior jump, but without dmg on impact and only one charge. Like a portal, that can be used only once, a grab, that chains the ennemy slowly towards the tank instead of just at once …
Also it opens up new uses and styles :
Riffles are not used enough, we can make them more appealing
We have nothing machine-related except some racials, but there is already a TON of spells / effects that are made for this in the game
A mecha could be customized, like dragon riding mounts, colors and appearances of shields and multi-fonction arms
Energy systems that could use combo + mana or scrap + overheating (please if it happens, just don’t make it annoying to deal with, it should be like no overheating = packing or semi-ranged, and overheating = absorbing and melee only to prevent loss of efficiency and ways to switch at will with limits if needed for M+ viability)
