    @skearnz There has been discussions and predictions how the Summoner will be implemented. It can be a 'jack of all trades' like mentioned before or perhaps ranged damage dealer or support or some kind of hybrid of these two. I am not sure is there any exact answer at this moment so I guess we have to wait a little bit longer to get more information.

    prtty much^^
    i do wonder tho, they have eluded to some nifty utility abilities like mage hovering over a gap, rogues picklocking and tanks being to...perceive threats (iirc?) so that does bring to mind what the summoner's utility could be:3

    but yea need to wait on that 1:D

    Anything involving Cleric, Bard, Mage or Summoner.

    But we all have to start somewhere and my very first attempt at a "Hybrid" character would probably be primary Cleric augmented with Bard (Scryer)... or... primary Bard augmented with Cleric (Soul Weaver).

    That said, I would probably first give Cleric/Cleric (High Priest) a shot before going straight into Hybrid.
    I'm sure it will take a while for me to settle on what fits best for my playstyle.

    From what we've been told only main class summoner will actually have summoned creatures. I'm betting a tank summoner would actually be an anti summoner, locking down summoned creatures.

    i act had something ion mind about this! not fighter but rather cleric/tank
    imagine being able to tank and hold aggro through healing spells xD

    I don't think you'd be able to hold aggro in anything more than a temporary off tank role. Remember, main archtype is what you do, second one is how you do it. So maybe that would be how Tank/Cleric worked, but i think Cleric/Tank would just be a healer not afraid to get their hands dirty in the melee, maybe through shielding, or higher armor values.

    A summoner doesnt always have to summon anmials. I could imagine a Tank/Summoner to summon walls and shields to soak aoe damage. ;D

    @Damokles True, but our tank abilities as we have them now ( certainly changing) already include summoning a wall, i think adding summoner in would do something different. But by creature i meant any autonomous damage source. floating swords etc.

  • A possiblity? Isn't the game designed with this in mind. A base class and a secondary class later on
