Title: maybe a new class :\
Post by Undead on 01/29/04 at 06:37:35

Got bored and cant play much because of lag
Lol, this is just a rough draft of a new class that I’m suggesting, names for spells, armor, class, weapon are just suggestion. Nothing special but it might be a start : \

Brainstorm guys, and put some opinion/suggestion if you like the idea…..

Race : Halfling, Gnome, Elf, Half-Elf, Human
Class : Undead/Vampire

Spells :
Blood suck – attacking spell
Death touch – attacking spell
Soul Strike – attacking spell
Invisibility – invisibility spell
Change form – mist(lvl 1-10), vampire bat (lvl 11-25), demon(lvl 26-29), demonic dragon (30)
Illusion – defensive spell
Satanic Aura – defensive spell
Demonic Strike – attacking spell
Hell Raiser – summoning spell/attacking spell

Weapon
sacrificial dagger
dark blade
unholy staff

armor
cloak of illusion
cloak of evil
robe of hell
satanic armor

lol, maybe only class that can be killed by a pacifist lmfao!!!

peace

ive always wanted an undead class, or even a spell that turns people into "undead", but new classes arent going to be put in.. read the forums and see all the other "New Class" or "New Race" threads and see :(

Who are you to say that there isn't going to be any new classes. Maybe staff just didn't feel like the previous ideas aren't what they wanted.

I would like to see a vampire class put in.

Most of the time, you become a vampire by being bitten by one. I don't think they would be very picky, so I suppose any race could be one if you think about it that way...

I'm not trying to be a spoil-sport here but basicaly what you proposed is a mage, with different named spells, some differences in abilities and weapons, that's about it...

If there were to be an undead/vampiric class it would probably not be as spell heavy. It would probably be like a paladin is to a cleric, less spells more melee, and evil...

Even though it might(by might I mean probably) won't be implemented it's fun to talk about and think about what it would be like.

well i kinda would like an undead class like that which could be killed by clerics and all that. it should be an undead monk lol :D cuz ppl liked monks and i think an undead race will be liked too :D

If they could get killed by clerics they should have insane hp. Cause the clerics would own the vampire if they had say 290hp.

If an Undead race/class was to come into play, Clerics wouldn't be healing it for as much as they heal regualr people. The race/class would have resistances and so forth against it. It's kind of how like Paci's reflect more damage than they should. It would be like the opposite of that, or something.

This could also mean that a cleric can have an added skill
D&D's original "turn undead" which means clerics can be used for Pking vampire/undeads which may make a cleric more apealing

rofl, yeah.. nobody uses clerics after all.. :P

I am full favour of this idea, I would love to have a bunch of little vampires running around NM killing everyone, but I would not mind seeing something likie the druid's morph ability which massive raises your dex but lowers your str and chages you into a bat now that would be fun but I agree less spell heavy but maybe kinda like an evil paladin so has minor damaging spells not healing spells.

A BlacksGuard. Thats a fallen Paladin or in another words (evil). They cast cursed spells instead of heal and cast poison or diseases. a really good class. It might be good for the nightmist world ;)

I know of the blackguard well. I am a fantasy game player from before I can remember (I mean mythology instead of the Little Critter yeesh). I was saying in terms of placement in the game, there is the fighter the ultimate weapons user who has finesse involved, the zerker who lacks the finesse, the ranger who shoots and dodges (well acctually they hit peoplw over the head with their bows but that is beside the point) and also there is the paladin who heals and uses weapons. The Vampire would fill another niche in there uses weapons but also hits people with spells to weaken/damage them to gain an advantage but loses some power because he lacks the weapon training of a fighter or the raw power of a zerker.
