Shadow Hunter

Someone made a topic on mmo-champion where he describes his concept of a potential new class. It's a pretty nice idea, but what impressed me the most is how well everything is thought-through and backed up by arguments. It's fairly long, since it goes as far as describing specific spells. Nice read is someone is bored.

Re: Shadow Hunter

Nice read, but I don't like the concept. The class sounds too much like Diablo3's witchdoctor.

Re: Shadow Hunter

Next hero class, if any, will likely be a healer, as there's already enough damage dealers, and we just got a tank hero class in death knights, so it seems this could be a possibility, and might even fit in with a maelstron expansion.

Re: Shadow Hunter

I kinda lost faith in this hero class stuff once we got to see death knights in action...

Re: Shadow Hunter

I don't think blizz will add any more classes, hero or not. I just think it's to hard to make a class that's new without it being to hard to balance. most of the classes  in the game are already much like eachother. if they were to create a new class it would either just be a new skin with the same abilities of other classes with new names and animations.

Hero classes as they were first made, and how I would have loved to see them, was as an addition to your existing class. so a mage would have the choice of becomming archmage to gain additional let's say arcane abilities but giving up frost and fire. but I see why this was not implemented since it was just kinda extended talent trees and not really new classes.

Not really sure what makes DK a hero class either, except the fact that they start at 55 and that all races can be 1.

I don't know how many more expansions we'll see, but kinda hope cata will be the last.

Re: Shadow Hunter

I agree with Araun, they have enough trouble balancing the classes as it is. And a new healer/dps surely wont make things easier imo.
