What Future Classes Would You Like To See?

I saw months ago someone write up an almost whole class kit for a ''Barbarian.'' I wish I could remember their username.

I really liked what they came up with. IIRC it was a bruiser-y class with a lot of emphasis on bleeds. I can't remember if it was foundationally stamina-focused instead of magicka like the other classes are, but I think an class like that would be cool.

It's also a traditional TES class archetype like nightblade, sorcerer, necromancer, which I like.

Classes?

Battlemage for one, cause it's the closest fitting to the Weapon skill tree I want, One Hand & Spell.

I'd rather have new Weapon Skill Lines though, cause what I want most is One Hand & Spell, and Unarmed Magicka.

I strongly believe the monk could perfectly be a pair of mythic gloves.

Gloves of Martial Knowledge:
You are unable to use weapons;
Your base damage is increased by XXX (as of the missing weapon)
Your light attacks send a cone of raw energy forward, dealing XXX damage to enemies and slowing them down XXX;
Your heavy attacks smash the ground, dealing XXX damage and setting enemies off-balance.
Increase your attack speed by XXX

The themes of lore and imagary can be fun, but something with a unique mechanic involving stats or resources would be especially welcome to get something with a different play style and group contribution.

Brakkish

Pirate
Druid
Summoner

Duke_Falcon

I would like to see a Sorcerer!!! lol 8-P To all the guys that are trying to play Sorc, you know what I mean. lol

Jaimeh

Aquamancer (ok, the name needs work) that has similar skills to what we see in some of the fights in Shipwright's regret, Coral Airie, and Dreadsail reef. I think it would be a lot of fun, with really cool aoe damage, nice vosuals, plus if they ever release a Maormer race, it would make a great class/race combo.

Ra'Shtar

Monk, the khajiit kind not the abbey pacifist kind.

TaSheen

I'd prefer the pacifist kind. I am SO tired of killing stuff for xp....

Yeah. When i had suggested for antiquity skill to give experience alongside with gold and items, i was met with the reasoning of how there is already more than enough ways of getting that experience.

So much for a pacifist gameplay lol.

jtm1018

Pugilist.
Fighter.
Monk.

fakingfocused

+1 for A barbarian/berserker/ reach warrior. Whatever you'd call it....that kind of inspiration for the next class.

And if they came out with class change options at the same time that would be just perfect.

duagloth

Tamer and or bard

Minnesinger

The monk class would be quite refreshing to see.

notyuu

Monk or brawler if you will

Yes thank you!

This or something like Monk as other people are bringing up would be cool. I feel like something on the less magic-based side would be cool for a change. The TES style Monk also has that potential.

artificer that has dwemer or clockwork combat pets would be nice…

Great idea, I could definitely see this, my one problem with it would be, wouldn’t this just be a reskin of Sorcerer?

Scamp - Spider
Flappy Bird - Sphere
Atronach - Centurion

I saw someone propose an overcharge mechanic. Giving buff to construct when the stand in it

Arcanist already gave me the class I wanted. I only wish there were more squirmy attacks available.

What I really want are new weapon skills. Building hundreds of new weapon models for each motif is unreasonable, but there is more that can be done with one-handed weapons. Namely duelling style (one weapon, maybe an unmodeled offhand bangle or something to fit the weapon mechanics) and a magicka-based melee swordmage style (sword and magical doohicky that doesn't even need a model either, though various held spellbooks could be sold).

Heck, double up on the non-modelled non-magic placeholders and you have unarmed fighting.

I'd love a melee spellcasting class that is staff (or wand) and shield.
I seriously don't get why we don't use a shield as squishy spellcasters; Absolutely NO mage attack animations cause a caster to wield the staff in 2 hands.

Castagere

I would love new weapon skill lines.

Heck yeah. Spears, whips, flails, wands for casting with a shield, glaives, a voulge, scythes (Even though the typical scythe people think of is for cutting wheat and war scythes look pretty different), crossbows, slings...
There are so many new weapons the dev team could add.

Wildberryjack

Pikeman using polearms only (yes, weapon equip limitation).

Tiktoker class

OtarTheMad

A class that uses more traditional TES spells would be sick. I’d love to use a Frost Atronach to run after players and attack them. Shoot fireballs and ice spikes at people. Buff up with Oak Flesh and silence myself with muffle. Use some alteration and illusion spells to throw people off and confuse them. Conjure up a Dremora Lord to join my Atronach, oh yeah… that’d be fun.

TheImperfect

I'm good for classes right now, the arcanist is fantastic! What I'd really love to see is a new race but also 2 more character slots. Would much prefer a new race.
If we did get new classes though - a engineer/articifer that can use dwemer/clockwork technology.
Or a monk type class that uses fists - new hand glove/weapons just for the class and new weapons a monk might use other than their fists like chakrams or punch daggers etc.

Influencer. Channel your social media presence into a sphere of influence that stuns enemies in it's area for 7 seconds. Stunned enemies have a 25% chance of being charmed by your amazing personality, breaking the stun and causing them to fight on your side for the duration of the sphere. This does not affect bosses, elite spawns or anyone with half a brain. Players are affected regardless of Battle Spirit but can Break Free if they're not dumb.

FlipFlopFrog

No new classes for a while please, having to start the game all over again is really unappealing. However, I have 118 unspent skill points so a new skill line would be great. I'm praying we'll get spell crafting one day.

Greetings,

This thread has been moved to the Combat & Character Mechanics section, as it is better suited there.

Thank you for your understanding.
