Re: Archetypes and roles
Out of the 64 classes, 8 will have tank as the primary. Tanks are at times hard to come by bc well the gameplay is more stressful and requires your utmost attention. I strongly disagree with dps being able to tank or heal, and vice versa. It leads down the same path in every game, I will use wow and lotro as an example.… -
Re: Archetypes and roles
Having played ESO and seeing what a joke classes are over there because they can do this, no. No, no no, no no. When everyone is special no one is and when everyone can do anything stupid tends to happen, unkillable heal tanks for instance (which also did stupid big damage). You need tank only classes, you need healer only… -

Even the use of a Beholder has seen them sue in the past - let alone actually making use of their game systems without permission. Many games also break… -
Archetypes and roles
Well first of all let me talk about roles in general. Well one of the things that should want to consider when making a class is the shelf life of that class. Or how long can a player play a class before he gets bored of it. Now there different things that come into play like skill shots, number of abilities how difficult… -
Re: Archetypes and roles
Now I said that every class could tank. But since there are two support classes bard and cleric there is no need for every class to heal or support. But as things are right now you will have a shortage of tanks unless IS finds a way to put more tanks in the game. But lets say everyone had the option to tank through the…
