Future Classes?

BloodOfTheNorth
Greetings all!
This has been a discussion I have had everywhere besides the forums, and this is my first forum post, but I have been active in the community this entire time.

I'm genuinely curious to hear more about future skill line ideas (like guild lines) or future class ideas, (People have been asking for Necro since beta, myself included, and we got it!) so what's next?

Any ideas?
Has this been talked about already?

Regards,

    A berserk class. I wanna a character that fights like Guts with an ultimate that gives me the Berserk armor with a new aggressive ability loadout.

    Maybe as a hand to hand weapon Skill line?

    I’d love to see a Battlemages class built on slower, more tactical combat and drawing inspiration from alteration and illusion more than destruction. Spells like Ironflesh, Telekinesis for the tanks, Morrowind/Oblivion style flame shields to reflect damage etc. Gives scope for stam and mag morphs and fits with the lore (particularly for imperials). Could also allow one hand and rune to be introduced, which would be amazing and potentially allow for hybrid builds to become a thing.

    Hand to hand would be awesome!

    Personally I think a Bard type class would cool, or a strict summoning class, regarding the later of the two something that focuses more on Daedra, and only Daedra, or a Dwemer Artificer.

    Let me get that monk class bb. I've been wanting to give these hands to other players in the literal sense for a long time now.

    Edit: or a DragonKnight that uses the world(earth) around them offensively. Like a what a Stam DK could be....just a thought.

    Bard would be a great one.

    Witch Hunter could be an interesting anti-magic sort of class.

    As for new skill lines, I'd like to see maybe a Knights of the Lamp skill line, that could pair well witht he Mage's Guild skill line. Or maybe get a College of Winterhold Skill line.

    At this point, you could probably point to any class in a previous TES title, or a faction and get something interesting out of it.

    Lol not quite. I'd post a video of what I'm talking about, but I don't know how ZOS would feel about violent animes.

    I think something kinda like the undaunted skill line would be cool, where the synergies are primary. Or maybe just an undaunted ultimate. Mostly I think there's enough skills and classes in the game at this point. Adding more skill lines without removing others would start to make the shear number of skills available kinda crazy and I'd imagine hard to balance.

    New Class: Gina

    All of your abilities are forum related and your ultimates are twitch related. Your passives are discord related but falls under the "social media" category tieing into all skills and ultimates.

    The only class allowed to use the thuum: "Soon"

    Ah, e-communities - the "pinnacle" of the internet............yeah, right.

    Yes please! The ice on Warden makes no sense.
    I would prefer a Spriggan theme damage skill line.

    Oddly, I kinda want to see eso2 with a totally redone system that is classless. I tend to prefer classless RPGs as it allows so much more flexibility in coming up with a workable character concept.

    Spears. They disappeared after Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind.

    But before they add any classes, I'd like to see the ability to swap classes, or at least a class change / alliance change token. Otherwise more classes will just result in character slot inflation and that has problems of its own.

    FFXIV solved character slot inflation by simply allowing everyone to play every class. You have to completely switch over to another class so you can't mix class skills per se, but it helps a lot.

    I don't think eso has room for more classes. I can definitely see a lot more skill lines coming. Hopefully not another dark brotherhood/thieves guild fiasco where they give us a skill line filled with useless passives and no useable skills.

    Classes are only using 1-2 class skills this patch. Stamina classes have always used weapon skills, but as of this patch, magicka classes will be primarily using guild/world skills too.

    If anything, I suggest getting rid of classes. They already serve minimal purpose.
