With the new class comes the question of how we should refer to their specs. These were the obvious candidates I think but feel free to comment down below if you have other suggestions.
Edit: Notable "Other" suggestions so far:
Starc/Marc
Stamarc/Magarc

Thank you. lol Alright fair enough.
I suppose it could be shortened more to:
SArc
MArc
But unless the other person understands exactly what it’s for, it may not be that obvious of an abbreviation.0 -

This right here. I don't care what they end up being called "oficially" they'll always be Starc and Marc in my heart XDLegends never die
They're written down in eternity
But you'll never see the price it costs
The scars collected all their lives
When everything's lost, they pick up their hearts and avenge defeat
Before it all starts, they suffer through harm just to touch a dream

Yes. Marc and starc seems to be the way to go. The question remains on the support specs. Arc tanks and arc healers?2 -

I liked Harc = heals, Tarc= Tank and Parc= inventory/crafting alt. Destai came up with them, they were amusing and perfect imoLegends never die

Maybe "stanist" can be a bit too provocative which is why I think it will be popular.Edited by Minnesinger on January 31, 2023 1:26PMThe wind is cold where I live,

Ah. Someone had already made a thread. Oh well.
Marc and Starc are indeed funny, but that's also why I can't really take them seriously. Marc is just a name lol. I think I prefer magarc and stamarc for now as that follows the same principle that "stamsorc" and "magsorc" do.
Following Marc and Starc, the tank would obviously have to be "tarc" and healers would be ... "harc"? Yeah, this might be a bit too silly.This Bosmer was tortured to death. There is nothing left to be done.0 -

My guess is they will slap with more tentacles. In the DK whip threads I've always argued that poison whip only would make sense if you used a venomous tentacle like some sort of Hermaeus Mora cultist. I guess ZOS was listening in.This Bosmer was tortured to death. There is nothing left to be done.0 -
