What's your favorite class in vidya?
Shapeshifters and Summoners usually. I'm pissed off that so many games get druids wrong.
Cleric>Wields maces, swords, and great shields.>Can use healing spells, utility spells, cleansing spells, revival spells, and light damaging spells.>Can channel lightning, death, trick, etc.
>>721899893>tfw no berserker hotwife whose rage makes her cheat (everything i do enrages her)
I like rogues and druids
>>721899893forced aggressive paizuri berserk femdom
>>721899893>not a single wizardHonestly I can't even blame you faggots, wizards are about creative problem solving but most devs can't be bothered creating interactive puzzles with multiple solutions with various diverse spells and just make wizard the fireball spamming goblin.
>>721900010ok bear fucker
>>721899893Engineers
>>721900010This guy gets it.
>>721901548Wizards are the -opposite- of "creative problem solving."Their whole gimmick is "I cast "Specific Solution to This Particular Problem."" they have a fucking spell for everything, one that does any possible thing any other class was designed to specialize in, but the wizard does it just by jerking off their magic staff for a moment.
>>721900010I would like more shapeshifter classes that aren't faggy druids.
>>721899893Monk. It's universally shit, except in Diablo 3, but the entire game was shit instead.Sad fate.
>>721899893>the dorkest side of me
>>721902065Their ususally pretty sweet in Final Fantasy at least.
>>721902405Could never get into that series for some reason.
MageWizardSorcererMagicianWitchwith a BIG hat
Fighters or brawlers, someone who just uses fists for everything. it shows just how prideful and skilled they are in combat
necro. blood, darkness, bone. thats the life for me.
>>721899893Fighter.Used to be paladin or rouge but watching that one ESO trailer awakened my primal need to just swing a longsword gudder than everyone else in the room
>>721899893Rogue Fighter. To essentially be competent in a straight up fight but having a strong preference for stealing advantage by whipping out random bullshit that suit the situation.
>>721899893Elementalist, or spellsword when the game doesn't have one.
>>721899893Necro or Monk. Either I'm the edgiest fucker possible or I'm zen'd the fuck out and dispensing the holy knuckle.
>>721904092>pocket sand
I love me a good ranger-type, a rain of arrows while I dodge around like a cracked out cat.
Tanky classes where you just absorb punishment instead of having to dodge/move, though it's a delicate balance to make it feel good while still having impact beyond agro management
>>721899893Paladin
>>721904678Love the concept but the execution never seems good. Either you are married to a pet or you're just an awkward amalgam of 2 or 3 other Classes.
>>721899893Autogynophilliac artist
>>721902718Incredibly based, anyone who chooses a melee class, when you can instead bend reality to your will and wear a big hat, is retarded
>>721901981This. Anyone who says old school D&D was about creative problem solving instead of looking at your sheet for the answer is a fucking liar.
>>721904918it's the curse of ranger, it's a job and not an actual martial discipline or even really a suggestion of skills, plus its experienced woodsman vibe can be easily accomplished by literally any other character class with the right background but most especially druid and rogue/thief or archersD&D it's functionally a halfway point between fighter, rogue and druid, off the top of my head the only reason ranger even really persists in public consciousness is because of drizzt
>>721899893I hate classes slop. I play mage in heavy armor, and crush heads with mace, and do everything else with spells.
>>721899893Paladins, Warriors, Dark/Death Knights, really any class that allows me to wield a giant sword.Also something like a Battle Mage, infusing your weapons with elements to fight with, but too little games do this.
>>721899893Necromancer and paladin.
>>721899893>>721900172>Classes>attributes>all the other cliche rpg nonsenseDo games even have these things anymore?
>>721905286I mean, multiclass cleric/sorcerer or cleric/wizard, and you can haveheavy armor, wield almost any weapon and blast fools with magic, instead of wearing a bathrobe. Class system is not that rigid.
>>721905291elden ring is funny with the entire faction of carian royalty entirely comprised of battle mages and sorcerers and knights with staff-swords, and then there are actual "battlemage" enemies whose only other distinction from normal sorcerers (almost entirely unarmored, uses a staff) is they have really tall hoods and they have two very specific sorceries, one that does a big hammer smash and the other that lobs an explosive arcing projectile and is inspired by cannons
high mobilityhigh damage0 damage negation
>>721905668that is what gamers wantAAA game companies are sleeping on easy money
>>721905668This but female child companion.
>>721905668Nah, other way around
>>721899893Knights are the coolest.
>>721900010https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njS58BL0u5w
>>721899893Whatever spellcasting class focuses on debuffs and damage over timeUnfortunately in most rpgs these tend to be the most useless class due to either boss immunities or combat which is balanced around the phrase 'guns off the field'
>>721899893Didn't realise left was an afterimage and thought fightergirl just had an extra arm haha
>>721901548its a shame only the elder scrolls series have such good wizards classes, from spells of unlocking, walking on water, walking on air, transmuting materials, enchanting, etc
>>721901548Love games which let you craft spells from components.
EVOCATION FOR EVERY OCCASION
>>721905149Old school D&D was always about twisting the DM's arm into letting you do dumb bullshit to win because it makes for a more interesting timeIt has literally never been anything else. The entire point is the lack of outer bounds which exist in video games.
>>721900010I know its stupidly edgy but I want to play something that looked like it jumped out of [Prototype] or SCORN and can shape itself into several different monster forms
>>721899893Wizard, obviously.
>>721907074>>721907230Fucking shame that skyrim (or Todd specifically) decided to do away with spellcrafting, that shit was good. You could just break the game with some creative spellwork, instead of having another fireball but +10 to damage.
>>721907412Not even close but here
>>721899893any class that uses magic, can even be melee, but i never choose classes that are pure warrior or rogue archetype
Dark mage, dark knight, or anything that uses clawsI want an rpg with a class thats just alex mercer from prototype but with dark magic claws
>>721907539>filenameI'll look it up, thanks
>>721905149Precisely.Oh the gm has attacked us with ghosts? I trap them in my anti ghost bubble which I had prepared while the paladin and the cleric prepare to smite and turn.Oh the gm is using some sort of water trap? I cast the trivially acquired spell to breathe under water that for some reason fighters rogues etc can never learn, no matter what.It is the shit eating grin class.
>>721904006My niggaI played Dnd with some friends in college where the DM had us do random stats and rolled a rogue with high strength and con so I gave him fighter levels to make him a dirty fighter and rewrote his backstory to be a not so reformed ganger
Big burly warriors that can physically overpower large monsters.
Dark wizard of course. APABhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVSjvh4vdpM
>>721899893When somebody makes a werecreature into a class/sub-class and allows me to turn into a freaking werewolf in a pickle so that I can go full "SURPRISE MOTHERFUCKER!".Also Death Knights. Because when I want to play evil I want to be very evil, and when I want to be good I don't want to go gentle.
>>721908026STR-based Rogues are tight. Probably my favorite way to play dwarves.
>>721907412I remember some obscure 2000s hack&slash game where you played as a mage and depending on what type of magic you were using you got to change parts of your chars body - dragon tails, demon wings, claws, insect heads and all that>>721907961>for some reason fighters rogues etc can never learnI mean, those are not spellcasting classes, so what's the problem? It's only in nu d&d that everyone can cast magic no problem, before that to even learn to read some fucking scrolls you had to know some magic alphabet and do some training on how to actually read it.
Small potatoes that can physically overpower large monster
>>721904918I was more thinking of an archer/gunner archtype, the 4e D&D ranger was my favorite exectution of this in D&D since it was just the martial ranged class in that version.
>>721904918The Dragon’s Dogma ranger is the best I’ve seen. It’s my favorite class in the game.
Little mage girls or bulky as fuck paladins are the best.
>>721900010Necromancy gets the most dogshit mechanics 9/10 times>you can bring back this ONE guy>or you can have 209 little guys at 1 hp and do 0.1 damage>OR you can have this gimmick skeleton that’s the best option
>>721908415Too silly, anon.
umm... I actually wanted a Centurii-chan thread, but we got serious answers instead...
>>721901548The issue with Wizards is that you need to essentially commit your entire engine to a robust magic system to make them feel right and at that point you might as well just make wizard the only playstyle.see: Noita>>721901981I think the worst shit are those spells that specifically just exist to solve what could otherwise be a fun long term obstacle.>Oh someone got cursed? Well in order to undo the curse you must... oh, you Wizard prepared "Remove Curse"? ok....You either have to bend the knee to that bullshit and just stop using curses as a plot point, or undermine the spell by making curses that can't be broken with Remove Curse, making the spell feel pointless and arbitrary and punishing the Wizard for preparing it. Same for any number of lazy fucking "solve this specific problem" spells that exist because nerds like to jerk off over the all-mighty bookworm power fantasy.
>>721905497Even the dumbed down bg3 had those things.
>>721908762>Not expecting joke threads to get serious answers and serious threads to get joke answersFirst time on 4chan, anon?
>>721908721Should be 209 little guys that you swarm and then detonate like undead jihadis.
>>721908636what about bulky as fuck paladins that are also little girls?
>>721899893Either Anything melee/close range because I like getting close and personal with my enemies and healers/supports but I think I just got gaslighted into playing them because usually if I wouldn't play healer then either nobody would play it or they would suck at that role.
>>721908721So what, you want 200 guys that are all on par with a normal character? I feel like you'd probably be better off just playing an RTS at that point.
>>721909028Forgot the pic
>>721908908Diablo 3 had that and it was great but it trivialized already piss easy game
>>721899893Sword n Board of any kind'luv SnS in every MH game'luv playing Fighter in DD
>>721909008Even better. Fortress my beloved.
>>721908721>you autistically have to micromanage every single one of your several dozen skeletons>OR you can't micromanage your skeletons at all and the minion ai is completely retardedI love the necromancer aesthetic but have come to hate actually playing one.
>>721909128Is this whole series translated? I've only seen a few pages translated.
>>721909034That sounds great actually, just lower the MCs max hp per summon so he can have his fuck huge wave but if he gets hit by anything his skull folds inside out
Shotgunner, anything that involves shotguns from an Over/Under to an AA-12 drum mag>but that's not a fantasy cla-Don't care, those wyverns are getting 12g slugs in the face.
>>721908805No the worse shit is the spells that invalidate other classes like knock, divinations, and conjuration.
>>721908721Necromancers in modern games are so weak.
>>721908880Kinu Nishimura is so fucking good I need to explode god damn she's just the best ever
>>721908584Hard agree there, I did an archer run of elden ring as well and if you do it right it can be almost as fun as DD2 ranger.
>>721909424Is there more? I thought there is only oneshot with two pages. Aren't you mistaking it for another manga?
>>721909542>*Shapeshifts self into a better frontliner than the dedicated frontliners*>>721909598https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts?page=3&tags=healer-chan_%28oekaki_aoba%29
>>721900172>cleric>can use swordsWrong.
>>721909598he's probably thinking about kono healer mendokusai
>>721899893I prefer classless systems where you have a limited amount of points to spend on making your own class that suits your playstyle or fantasy.
mage, summoner or ranger (with pet)
>>721909675Huh, I had no idea there is morehttps://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/123204053>>721909692Though so too at first but I realized relationship between Alvin and Karla wouldn't fit into that manga kek
>>721899893Warmage, or whatever they decide to call "guy that hits people with a sword and casts spells".
>>721909869Eh this usually just means the options have to be fairly generic and uninteresting. Its more fun when the difference between playing as a wizard,druid, paladin or cleric is a very different experiance
>>721908721Yeah I kinda hate it but at the same time going in-depth means your game becomes a necromancer rts/tbt rather than whatever it was originally.
>>721908745M'fraid it's kino desuwa
>>721899893Samurais.I like Guns, Katanas, Spears and Bows.
>>721899893ranger>lol you can't get me>lol can't touch me>whoops chipped away all your life haha>>noooooo you have to fight like a ma-ACK!
>>721911719You can also go unga bunga with a kanabo.
>>721909869classless systems should be made by first creating interesting and unique classes and only then breaking them down into point values.Any other method will be shit and boring and/or metafag country, guaranteed.
>>721910154No no no, Warmage is just a normal Wizard with armor and maybe a focus on combat spells. Sword and magic hybrid doesn't really have a set name, Spellsword or Arcane/Magic/Dark/Eldritch Knight is popular as an official name but you'll hear older gamers refer to them as Gish builds/classes.
>>721899893a sworda shield
>>721913623SpearThats it
>>721899893Whichever one has the biggest tits and ass
>>721899893Witches, Wizards, Sorcs.
>>721899893I like to summon stuff, as long as the summons aren't shit. Terraria was the last game I remember having a ton of fun as a summoner.If summoning sucks I'll go magic, funnily enough magic was total ASS in Terraria when it's usually broken in most games. Literally the worst class in the game, it's melee with horrible resource management.
>>721909579>>721908880how the hell did Capcom manage to hire all the best japanese illustrators back in the 90s?
>>721914676they werent the best yet
>>721899893I hate that no game has really done barbarians right. They all just end up being "Warrior but attack animations look angry and then you press a button to roar and turn red for x amount of time for extra damage"Give me a musou with a grading system akin to DMC. I want a gradual build-up of battle fervor, and I want it to actively encourage and reward me for chaining my way through enemies and staying in active combat.I want to see my character's attacks evolve as the fight continues. From practiced, controlled swings to deliver fatal wounds to heavy, almost flailing power strikes delivered with the sole intent of chopping enemies into smaller piecesI want to see my muscles bulge and swell, and hear my breathing become more ragged and feral; audio-visual feedback of the adrenaline fueling my 1-man death machine. I start from being able to take down 2-3 small enemies at a time to cleaving down a dozen small fry with one chaotic whirl of my weapon, sending their corpses flying backwards into those unfortunate enough to be next in line for the blender.I want giant enemies as fun mini-bosses that give me a variety of approaches to taken down. From facing them head on and dodging attacks to cut them down bit by bit, to leaping onto them from above or throwing myself onto their back and climbing my way up to their head to gouge out their eyes and rendering them blind. If Capcom can turn a franchise out of looking as cool as possible when fighting, surely someone can do the same with complete and utter carnage.
