Well its been a while since there was a good post in the general forum so i\'ll ask
\"what general class will you model after\"
you all know me, Druid
edit: that typo
-
Woill? I woill be a Druid too if that\'s what you\'re asking. Druid or possibly Rogue, although I do love my animals. :)
-
rogue of course :D
-
Ranger.
-
Necromancer...! :]
-
\"and 2 Rogues, 2 !\"
-
I was aiming for a paladin type character, but now i\'m not so sure.
I\'ll just see what happens.
-
An Explorer! :D
-
A mage/merchant, or possibly a ranger...
-
A bum
-
Paladin/bard :)
Job: Inn owner
-
A boring old Pharmacist. I\'m going to open a shop and be like \"Hello. Exact change only, please. kthxbye\".
-
Sneaky assassin type person. Can\'t get enough stealth, someone stole my metal gear solid 2.
-
I\'m going to have a very big axe (or two)... and I\'m going to crush things with it/them
enough said.
-
Wizard guy... Or anyone else that can kill people in the most violent and painful way possible. I\'ll also pick up some crafting skills, if it doesn\'t bog down my character too much...
-
Well i be a lonly hunter :P if that class exist :P if not that a kinda thief that dont steal but only gets info :)
-

There is not any classes in PS! So, you can call yourself whatever you want...not that everyone else won\'t call you something different.... ;)
-
Geez i NEVER said im normal....
but enyway i will: \"act as...\" thats better? :)
-
Probably fighter/mage, mebbe even pure mage, but probably will practice my melee skills too a bit.
-
What ever class/skill it takes to become a sort of swiss army knife for spells. What? did you forget your sword let me conjure one for you. Need to attack faster, poof there you go. Need to be invisible, poof there you go. What your dead? poof there you go, now your alive again. Your room is not clean? poof there you go!
Ok maybe that last spell is a bit too powerfull. I am sure it will be nerfed when the game goes into final.
-
ooooh add a kitty skill and make it kittyl ike :) hehe
-
ooo. I gonna be a big bad and evil necromancer. (lol, all necromancers are evil)

Not really :rolleyes: :P
-
Um, yes. Everything to do about a necromancer is evil. A necromancer who isn\'t is sorta disgrace to necromancers. (No offence to wannabe good necromancers) A necromancer who is evil is hated by most non necromancers. (See every fantasy RPG game and fantasy book in history.) Necromancy is the fobidden magic art. E.g. Forbidden by other magic users.

You just said there are no evil necromancers, and now say there are.. :P So there are good necromancers, and their craft doesn\'t have to be evil since there is black necromancy and white... (black being the animating of the dead, and white being healing and the like) so being a necromancer doesn\'t necessarily make you evil..
-
lol, a good necromancer isnt really a necromancer, as u are supposed to have to be evil to cast. And lol, u should look up necromancy. Their is no such thing as white necromancers. Necromancy is the art of raising the dead as eternal zombie skeleton servants, not healing. If u want to heal, be a cleric. :)
(btw, as this game is roleplay u can call urself a good/neutral necromancer if ye wish, it\'ll add a bit of strangeness into the game. :) )
\'Um, yes. Everything to do about a necromancer is evil. A necromancer who isn\'t is sorta disgrace to necromancers. (No offence to good necromancers)\'
ahem, quickly changed that one, lol. :) :)

Ever played D&D??? You would notice that most healing spells have necromancy as their governing magical ability... And I\'ve never played any game where you have to be evil in order to cast necromancy spells... And if you translate necromancy into danish (which is my main language) it means \"?ndemaning\" (Summoning of spirits/communing with spirits) which is also something necromancers are able to in lots of games, and fantasy settings...
And I stand by the point that necromancy doesn\'t necessarily have to have anything to do with \"evil\"..
-
I\'ll practice the skills necessary to become a great merchant - and sell all you others swords and wands and potions ... prime retail locations, high-rises, franchises, security, etc, etc. :)
and when my empire collapses I\'ll be a bum and share a bottle with Kiern.
-
I didnt know that, I dont play D&D much. All I know is that games like NWN and baldurs gate which use D&D rules have Cleric as the healing class. You cant heal at all if you choose necromancy.
Also how come in alot of RPG\'s (for example Lionheart) if you choose to be a necromancer you are seen as evil, and also you are scorned by other mages for practising the dark arts? Maybe this just varies in different games, no really niether of us are right or wrong. lol
-
necromancy is two sides of one coin, both healing, and renewal of life
good nec-heals and brings person back to life(soul in tact)
the \"healer\"
bad nec-(drains and brings person back(although generally mindless like a zombie));
the typical \"necromany
it all matters on wether r not you are reffering to the general class type or the school fo magic like divination and divinative magic, two different things yet sound much alike
edit: i know... i\'m good like that
-
I\'m going to be a merchant, though since I\'ll be selling magic supplies I\'ll probably be a wizard and an alchemist as well, and probably a bit of crafting too (for making all those cool magical knick-knacks).

One of the reasons I think the devs choose to have no classes in planeshift are the class restrictions of other RPGs. No restrictions, no titles, and no cleric can\'t use a sword stuff. There are only different skills. The more you practive the greater your skills - the greater the skills the better you can do stuff.
Go ahead mage pick up that sword healer just try not to cut yourself cause you have had no time to practice with swords - all you time has been spent trying to become a better healer.
So Xodron, be as evil as you want - he he he
-
so if ur addicted enough you could master everything. it is just a matter af what you go at the most.
-
I know that you can choose to be anything you want, which is one thing which makes planeshift different. I suppose you can follow any way of magic(s) so You can be good at everything. Btw, I was reffering to the class Necromancer, not the School. Sorry if i confused you. :)

Check pg 190 of the D&D players handbook. All healing spells are Conjuration not Necromancy. Necromancy has nothing to do with healing.

must be the new d&d then... Haven\'t played that much...
Although I fail to see the logic in conjuration magic being the governing magic for healing...
But who cares about this anymore :D :P it\'s really just a stupid discussion as to whether a necromancer is allowed to be evil or not.. it\'s all up to the character who plays him/her whether or not you wish to be evil... if people around you see you as evil, even though you aren\'t, then the people are naive and pitiful... :P
-
lol, yuh. I do like a good argument though. :)
-
gona try and model mine close to a thief/necromancer, with a meanstreak
what you don like me snatching your purse, oh well eat my lifedrain extraordinaire your dead yesterday spell

Slythe well hidden member of Arcane Order,

-
How to clean house the MMORPG way...
First buff with:
Strenght of Pinesol spell (10 mana)
Haste of housewife spell (10 mana)
Eagle Eyes of Mother-in-law (10 mana)
then summon...
Soap and Water Elemental (150 mana)
Dimentional bag of trash holding (10 mana)
and finnally cast...
Whirling Wind of cleaning (60 Mana)
Total cost
250 mana points
Note: depending on the mess additional bags of holding may need to be cast.
-
Hopefully I\'ll be a light fighter but I\"ll be concentrating mostly on Alchemy and Herblaw.

Me and Drilixer are going to be exactly the same except errr... ill be a little shorter:(
-
i plan to lean heavely towards the more Roguish aspect of the game and focus on skills like Backstab,sneak,hide maybe climb and things along those lines. Dont plan to go into magic at all
-
i aggree but haveing a little bit of magic never hurts like a light healing spell or something of that sort :D
-
I\'ll start out with some sort of a Rogue class, mainly fighter style. All this fuss about stealth and thievery isn\'t me. I\'m dead clumsy. :P I\'ll bring along Alchemy, which will help me identify and make potions for myself and my friends. The reason I choose Rogue Alchemist, and not Mage Alchemist, would be that when I have a firm grip as a Rogue fighter-style thing, I can start focusing on magic, and I have something to protect myself with, should my magics suddenly go *pling .. twirl-twirl-twirl .. poof*. It\'s bad, but it can happen. :D

Yea, and you will suddenly be teleported to the middle of the ocean.
-
Bah, a Rl friend of mineplans to be a Alchemist so i can keep in a steady supply of healing potions of keep my focus on other things 8)
-
yea but think the more space you have to put asides for potions the less space ye have for tresure 8)
-
I\'m sure that pouring down a few potions wouldn\'t hurt too much, if - of course - the treasure is big enough. :P However, if you meet big treasures, you\'ve slain big monsters, and for that, you would need friends, so space shouldn\'t be that much of a problem. :P
-
I\'ll be a heavy knight. Won\'t be using shields... just 2-handed weapons :)
-
I\'ll be more of the strong knight with 2 swords and a little magic for just in case
-
That would usually be referred to as a \"Paladin\", hevrah. Unless you\'re going for the big magics, then it\'s called \"Tank Mage\". :)
-
i like rangers and paladins so .......
-
Variable Knight:
I want to be able to master all sorts of heavy weapons so that I can weild them as quickly as little knives.
But I want to be able to go to Heavy-Two Sword mode and the more serious Super-Ultra-Fast Two Short Sword or Dagger Mode.
I think that is called a light knight? I just know they have to come out with swallows....That\'s it, we need a weapon forum.
The weight should also determine how people use the lighter characters, for example, Heavy Lancer Kyros? Giant Axe Dwarves?
Being able to master one\'s weapon to the point of ridiculous speed/damage/defensivness is going to be so darn fun.
Will someone master the golden mug, please?
-
As an alt character I would like to be a Kran Brawler.
Put all my points into strength and body. I would cary a huge mall and detest edged weapons. If one of those evil mages came near me I would drive them into the ground like a tent stake. :)
-
Ouch! I hope they re-model the Kran\'s hands, I wouldnt want to be hit with doorknobs, lol.

Let me see if I can help.
Shadowmancer
Necromancer
nekromanteia
manteia
Manteia= divination= The art or act of foretelling future events or revealing occult knowledge by means of augury or an alleged supernatural agency. (dictionary.com)
Derwoodian translation:
Shadowmancer: forteller of the future by looking at shadows of the past. Not quite as evil as a Necromancer :)

I want to be a man who uses unarmed combat, a combination of healing/buffing and damage magic, and who can jump and run and move quickly. Any idea on what to call such a man?
-
..very fast

A ninja?

** uses healing magic to reincarnate a great golden wyrm.commanding it to eat Xalthar. **

A druid. Protector of the woods, keeper of the Balance. We have same alignments and I try to act as one in real life. :)
Focus on: Healing, natural magics, animal summoning, staff, herbalism...
-
well first i have to say if you want to become a palidan become a true palidan and join the only religious guild in planeshift, the followers of laanx.
My advertising over i would like to say that i will be a holy warrior type character like a palidan,but im kinda above that status since im Laanx\' Personal Mistress...
So whatever you interpret Laanx\' Personal Mistress at thats my character....
And please xordan no smart remarks...
-

-
xordan i feel really sad that you have to make sad little remarks like that to get your kicks... I\'ll pray to laanx for you tonight......... ;)
-
Nah, don\'t worry about it, I pray to Talos every night anyway.

ur the second religious guild in planeshift
-
For me, when i get enouph Skills and high Enouph lvls, ill probably go for a Mercenary or mabey a Ranger.
-
sorry but we the followers of laanx are the first religious guild of planeshift. I have no idea what guild you think is first but we the followers of laanx are the first guild based on the religion in planeshift. Thank you ~bows~ Thank you ~bows again~

a rogue that specializes on stealth thingies and hidden locations, i\'ll also use magic to confuse my enemies and make my hiding skills better.

well, lil ol\' me will be akind, gentle soul who specializes in healing, alchemy and herblore. and wears all black and carries a black wakazashi, heheee

In your little world, maybe. In PlaneShift, however... No. :)
-
Not sure, but I think they are refering to The Hunters of Hel.
-
And there was another religious guild before... it was called \"Followers of Pooky\" ;)
-
do you know the url to the hunters of hel? i would like to see how religious they really are
-
here\'s the url: http://huntersofhel.tk/
They look pretty religious to me...
-
they arent really religious at all! they are hunting a god not worshiping it. I can see where you guys are coming from but i still beleive we are the first religious guild, as in we are the first guild worshiping a god, not hunting it.
-
What about the pooky worshippers?
-
dang good point. well that puts me in my place. followers of laanx religious guild, 2nd only by the followers of pooky...
-
Originally posted by whemyfield

oops... heh, didn\'t read their guild description to the end :P
So FoP was first religious guild?
nice, considering that FoP was made just for fun in MB :P
-
whats this??? i caught draklar making a mistake... ohh tell me someone had a video camcorder to get this... this is like history in the making, once in a lifetime thing like haley\'s comet or a blue moon! :p
-
I shall be a Teacher who goes forth and kicks butt only to come back to teach what I have seen then go out again.
I have always liked the thought of a mixture between a Rouge and Ranger type character. One who has the best qualities of each... combined with the skills of a Teacher... oh, yeah. Plato the Defender or some such.
-
Originally posted by whemyfield

Haley\'s comet isnt a once in a lifetime thing really...
-
Welll, to that end...
neither is a Blue Moon, which is two full moons within the same month. Last year, two were recorded. August and November.
-
hehe ok science nerd.... little too knowledgable there but ok i believe you...
-
I will most likely play as a friar (http://www.classesofcamelot.com/albion/friar.asp).
-
Pure Rogue most likely, most Rogues want to cross class with other classes like rangers or Spellcasters but i\'ve always preferred keeping to the rogue set of skills.
-
I cant make a new character to start this type of Player but if there is a swipe of everyones account next update ill make this dude. I wanna make an animal trainer! It would be such a cool job! I would use a whip (another thing i would like in the game) So my animal trainer would be my class i model after and my job! Hehe flying people around on a Ptedaur would be awesome for money..
-
but animal trainer isn\'t a class, it\'s job. Just like weapon smith and so on...
Almost every class could be animal trainer.
Well necromancer couldn\'t, you know... scaring animals by their appearance and stuff like that ;)
-
You and your prejudice against necromancers... I\'m sure they can look good when they want to. Or at least normal. And they don\'t need to train animals anyway, just make a zombie one.
-
what??? i don\'t remember when i said i have something against necromancers!
but yeah, necromancer can look normal, as long as he won\'t develop his necromancy skills ;)
And notice that i said \"and stuff like that\". Even if necromancer will use some potions to keep normal appearance, still animals will be feeling that there\'s something wrong with that guy.
You know... animal zombies tend to turn into dust after some time, and they aren\'t as helpful as living ones.
-
Has anyone thought about being a barbarian? If there is anyone who wants to be a Kran Barbarian email me sometime at supercoolsuperspud@hotmail.com cus your one person i defenitly wanna be friends with! :D (I know i sure wouldnt wanna be their enemy!)
-
Being a barbarian? How? Running around with two two-handed swords, wearing only a piece of cloth to hide your attributes? You\'re silly, whemy. :D
-
My main characters always change by the style of game and I wont be able to tell you guys untill I study the skills, spells, resistances and damages of the game.. (that is mainly influenced from years of diablo 2 pvp... :))
-
Lol, I am kind of an individual. I want to be ALL healing. Low physical stats at all, but I\'m giving my 100% to Magic and Healing!
-Zeonire.
-
the order could use more healers, look us up
-
I want to be a pale dermorian elf suited in black with little stealth, little healing magic, some weapon proficency and a lot herb knowledge makes the MUSROOM MASTER class i\'ll be.
Thank you for your atetntion and:

If Zeonire decides to join \"the order\", I\'m definately not going to complain. That\'s for sure. :)

Hey, Druke, thanks for your offer. However, I am already in another guild, the Circle of Legends. Sorry I can\'t joing your guild!

Wow that\'s me too, although I would add (if I could), bow, fletching and a bit of magic, like for buffing. I like to be the type of character that stays out of towns in order to be pretty self sufficient and stay close to the hunting action, unless I need supplies.
-
Well that\'s a description of a ranger, is it not?
Check my sig link.
-
and if you like magic you can always come to the magical part of the rangers :D
-
**jumps from nowhere nicks someones wallet and runs off**
-
well, i wasn\'t planning on a ranger, more of a hermity alchemist/healer who lives out in the woods, and only comes to town for selling loot, an trading for more money.
Jessyn
that had better not have been MY wallet. *checks coinpurse* ah, good.
-
Mage. Smart, powerful, and evil as hell. That\'s gonna be me. :]
-
Mage, smart, powerful but neutral for me :D
-
Either a druid or a mage. I\'ll probably intend to be a druid, but eventually just end up picking up all powerfull magically abilities I can.
-
A bard mostly magic and I will stay in the forests. I will be a Klyros.
-
Rouge, defenitly
-
sneaks in, looks around, and melts into the shadows

Be a druid then. As soon as we\'ll be able we\'ll probably have a forest base.
SPOILER****************
Matrix rox!!
-
Seems like I\'m going to be one of a few Alchemists. Not like that bothers me alot, though. That just means less competition for me. :D
-
hja....uh well... as a druid I\'ll surely know about herbs, but probably wont do potions from them... unless they will be useless otherwise.
We\'ll see, but I most probably wont be competition, I\'m not planing on selling the herbs/potions.
-
grono, you won\'t be the ONLY alchemist...
and lynx_lupo, thatnks for the offer, but wouldn\'t that deafeat the purpose of being a hermit? living with other people?
Jessyn
-
And grono thinks that she\'ll be a metalurgy alcemist type. Hm, we\'ll see.
For starters it would be hard living alone, as in how to find a peaceful resting nest and how boring it gets to play alone...
I think a ranger/druid grove is the/will be the closest thing to it.
-
I will aspire to become a great Arcane Mage, who draws power from the Azure and Dark Ways to serve my evil ways. I\'ll wear light armour and use a magical staff as a weapon-- also I might learn to use daggers efficiently.
-
If I\'m not mistaken, druids often live with elves, so how can they be alone?
Anywho, lynx, you didn\'t understand what I was talking about properly so don\'t say half-finished sentences about what I\'ll be... Shush :rolleyes: :D
Jessyn - You\'ll be alchemist too? :P

Lemme help you re-think that for you... A mage with armor is not good. It decreases movement, and mages need to move - sometimes REALLY fast. As for a magical staff... well, to be honest, I doubt it\'ll be easy to just find a magical staff in the middle of nowhere, but a regular one could do very well. I even think one of them martial arts are for staves, but I\'m not sure though. However, the dagger thing might be good, as daggers are likely to give more damage than staves, unless your staff-fighting is much greater, and you hit your foe in the face all the time (ouch). So, what you would do is :
\"I will aspire to become a great Arcane Mage, who draws power from the Azure and Dark Ways to serve my evil ways. I\'ll equip myself with light clothing, and use a staff for fighting, as well as a dagger.\" :)
Then again, some people do not appreciate me helping *points at Venge*, so if you don\'t like my suggestions, just don\'t remember them after you\'ve read them. :D
-
often.
They\'re pretty much alone if there is no elves around.
Have you read elminster\'s ecologies?
-
You could say that I\'ve tried, but the library doesn\'t have them all... However, who says everything goes by the ways of Ed Greenwood\'s books? :P
-
singing: I\'ll do it... Gronomiiisssttt\'s waaaaaayyy! :D I was thinking of robes and light clothing when I typed \'light armour\'. So I don\'t know why I typed \'armour\' to begin with. But I will definitely have a magical staff... one day! I could even enchant one myself. Is there plans for an Enchanter job?
-

Didn\'t read any of it. In my mind is Fearun.
Unless he wrote the ecologies.
-
**jumps down again nicks several wallets and runs off**

Not sure what you\'re talking about lynx, but Ed Greenwood wrote the Elminster books... :P
**nicks back her wallet**

ah, ok. I have Faeruny mind patterns when it comes to fantasy. That\'s what I meant. what...........[/end]

I\'m afraid you can\'t do that, lynx. Paxx said: \"No teleporting spells\". :rolleyes:

How about a nice polymorph. Since I can\'t make him a badger, a squirrel will do just fine.
*put\'s a polymorph other trap on the wallet*
-
Well, we all know Sep is a dog (from the \"Faces behind the players\" thread) so what\'s the deal about forcing him into another animal shape? :P
-
squirrels are less annoying, bite less and i don\'t think one could lift my purse. :P

I wish to be the wandering soldier who fights for what he thinks is right in a situation, not to say he wont jobs for money, but he wont take jobs he sees as un honerable, and certain jobs he sees as necisary, he shall do without charge. Serphet will ahve great internal conflict with himself as well as with who he sees as his allys. Serphet will also view magic with a close eye, though he will have no part in it, its existance defies his reason thus he seeks to know about it.
-
I refuse, no matter what the situation may be, to be a mercenary. ;)
-
...an oxymoron of sorts
-
An action-ecomilla-man? Saw that in a cartoon once... :D
-
I will be a tank with duel weapons swinging crazy with maybe a few damage spells/healing spells. I will also be the friendly Armor Crafter for all ye people.
-
Must be a tank. Nothing like the front of the battle lines for me. Large sharp weapons and strong armor! Hey everyone likes to have a good meatshield around.
-
any people thinking of a bard type class?
-
Mage - probably a summoner of some sort, or possibly a blaster.
-
I\'ll be a type of elven rouge/ranger.
-
Hey, will mages be able to be self-sufficient killers in PS? I dislike games where the warriors can charge off anywhere and hack things into bits, while the mages have to group together or travel with a warrior to kill anything.
-
I\'d like to be a spy, walking on the roofs of the city at night, sneaking into the shadows, and stealing secrets for money. I think I could be able to make a living out of the politics\' demands ;)
-
Battle Mage....lot\'s of battle magic plus sword....

I believe even warriors will have to party to kill the bigger mobs, just like mages. :)
-
I\'m going to be a shapeshifter. I really like to be a werewolf but since PS don\'t use the standar monster I hope it gets something even cooler.
-
definetly a kind of stealthwizard
should be cool to have mindcontrolling magical abilities and sneak.hrhr
maybe i will also try a herbalist/alchimist for i guess my class wont be a masskiller,so i?ll need the potions^^
-
stealth wizard, sounds like the AO nightblade org.
-
Or a Druid. 8)
-
Beastmaster...definatly a Beast
-
A barbarian meets gladiator type o\'guy... I mean look at my character potrait (http://www.darkzephyr.plus.com/zephyrus.jpg) ... He looks pretty beserker/barbarian to me
-
I\'m gonna be a heavy armoured knight, with some two-handed sword. I\'d prefer a great sword, but it might be a claymore too. I\'ll be also using Red Way spells. Like causing rage in companions, but probably offensive ones too.
-
I wanna be a fisherman! :D
-
I will be a full time priest and my
Smithing mule will be my merchant/alternate persona of me in my peaceful state.
So full time smiter of all that is not Holly/or anything that has money I can take in the name of the holly war.. couch (Hollywar = you looked at me wrong.. Hammer time).
and Full time Smither of great armor for full time Smiters to wear.
-
I\'m going to be a Wizard, not a mage, a wizard, there\'s a difference.
-
Hm.
Ranger, perhaps? :P
-
i now decided to be a warlock ;)
-
Druid (Brown way + pet trainer)
-
Rogue-Thief-Fighter....a mix
-
Paladin here. Always liked the idea of fighting and healing, with heavy armor and heavy swords! Always hated how over zealous they seem to be, and how they are usually one of the hardest characters to play
PLEASE dont make paladins like the paladins in EQ. They were HORRIBLE at EVERYTHING. There aren\'t many games that do a Paladin justice (lol sorry for pun).
Paladins should be more then capable fighters with average healing, not Minor healing. Paladin spells in EQ were a joke. Heal for 90 hp when I have 1800 hp.
Sorry for getting off topic, just like the class but want to see them done right in a game that seems to be being made right :)

You call such a man a Monk, in the realm of D&D

stealth ( P ) Pronunciation Key (stlth)
n.
The act of moving, proceeding, or acting in a covert way.
The quality or characteristic of being furtive or covert.
Archaic. The act of stealing.
I think I would try and base it around the character that I used with friends in D&D, the Baldur\'s Gates, NWN etc.
She will be a rogue, but focus more on stealth skills than thieving, and be a mster with a light sword such as a rapier. It\'s a very enjoyable class to RP.
Silence does not mean stealth, nor vice versa.
-
i will be a klyros healer, wizard, and merchant,with light armour (obviously since klyroses cant wear heavy) and throwing daggers (the most sophisticated weapon in my opinion (but i havent seen many weapons so no wonder)), reason being merchant is good for getting money, healing is good if you get hurt and last but not least everybody knows wizards dont backstab, if you ever enrage a wizard you wouldnt have a back to stab :]
what is the difference of a mage and wizard?
-
I changed my mind about what kind of character I want to play.
I will first focus on long and or short sword. When ranged combat is implemented I will be a fletcher (making bows). I will then become what DnD rules would call a ranger.
I know it is not very RP like, switching after a certain time, but unfortunately it is the only way to really enjoy the game imo.
Stalking the woods, alone for a long time. I like the quiteness of the outland.
-
Ill be a bishop or a very holy charater and walk in to towns and shout Repent ! Repent ! and smite some disbelivers
its more fun being religous in games
-
I`m gonna be the first SUCESSFULL Evil Overlord.
I`m gonna be even more eveler than Skeletor.
Muahahaha ...
No for real I`m gonna be the local drunk,
gonna be fun, gonna know many people (ok mostly I`m gonna know many boots kicking me out of tha tavern),gonna hear many things, gonna know many things (if I`m not too drunk)
-
hummm gonna be a ranger. One with a bow ofcource, thats important to me, and a stick. One like 2 metres long, and my bow a long bow, 1.5metres I guess.
Then Im gonna wonder the woods a little^^
-
A Wizard alchemist person. Studier of the Azure way. Possibly also an adventurer/herbalist (goes out actively to look for herbs).
-
as my siggie says, a shadow mage. :P a spellcaster that specializes in combat magic of the dark way... and ill also have some crystal way magic as well. ill also study the path of the alchemist.
-
I\'m gonna have to be a master of monsters. Nothing cooler than riding a giant winged airborne beast over a city while hunting down an enemy. Or I\'ll go for a pure smith, and just walk around taking requests.
-
Im going to aim to be some kind of rogue/thief or possibly ranger.
For now ill just get enough crystals for the mug and become an alcoholic ;)
-
i\'m going for a mage and martial arts :p
and fisherman fishing pwnz in rpg\'s :p
-
Paladin or Ranger most likely!
-
I\'m not quite sure what I\'m going to be; probably a free-lance rogue/mercenary, seeing as how I tend to have trouble with steady employment (ie I get fired a lot).
-
I will be a skilled crafter and a powerful merchant to sell what I make.
-
I will be a mage!
Spellcaster of the red and dark way, mainly red.
I realy like being a mage. Mainly because i dont like being a fighter...
-
I know that this argument has basically died, but why do people seem to think that necromancer automatically equals evil??? It\'s like for some people it becomes an algebraic equation.
if you are a necromancer, your alignment shows in the way that you handle the spirits you conjure.
as an evil necromancer, you bend the spirits to your will, forcing them to do as you wish.
there comes however, the case of the tribal shaman, speaking with the spirits of the dead, using necromantic means to communicate with the dead. If your village is attacked, is it evil to plead with the dead to rise up against those who would sack, burn and pillage your homeland, rape your women and enslave you? I think not, you are merely looking toward the good of your people.
I\'ve played more than one good necromancer, but the DMs I\'ve played under always gave me an xp penalty because I couldn\'t \"force\" the spirits to do what I wanted... personally I would think that the spirits would trust me and do as I wished willingly.
as for this game, I\'m not sure, something like an assassin I suppose, lots of stealth and backstabbing, maybe some magic, not sure bout that, probably healing spells if I do
-
well almost every game i play that give\'s me the choice i am a dwarven cleric/ fighter heavy on the fighter usually two weapon (axe and hammer) style with just enough cleric in me to get me thru sticky undead situation\'s.
it\'s a hard combination to play in the beginning of most game\'s but when you start to get up in experience your char become\'s very powerfull in hand and mind :D
but as for planeshift i think i am leaning toward\'s mercenary/weapon smith hiring out to whoever can pay 8)
-
i agree with tigerwilde i don\'t think calling apon the spirit\'s of your ancester\'s is an evil act but it would be considere\'d necromancy would it not ?
-
ranger
job: weapon smithy/merchant
-
ok well for a start loosely of a ranger/explorer/bard kind of mix thingy
allways using twin longswords and longbow in equal measure, stealth helping just a bit
sliping in and out of trees and ambushing my enemies from above, exploring every where i can no magical abilities that is what friends are for:D also retelling of mine and others adventures to the comunity at the local tavern .... for a nominal fee of course:D
with either weponsmith or boyer profesion or singer on the side

Thats because most of the famous necromancers that everyone knows has at one point in time attempted to take over the world.

To be exact, a necromancer doesn\'t necessarily have to conjure spirits and talk to the dead, and raise skeletons. Yes, one part of necromancy revolves around the dead and evil things like that, however the other part of necromancy lets them to exactly as all other mage classes. They can heal, they can grant strength, they can protect. However, they just do it in a slightly diffrent way. The basics of necromancy spellcasting is by taking something from someone, and then giving it to someone else. Thus, a necromancer can take a part of someone else\'s (or his own) life force, and heal another person with it, just as well as he can take the lifeforce of another and heal himself. It\'s not what he can, that makes him evil, it\'s what he uses his powers for that makes him evil (or good).
If people let the necromancer take their life to bring someone else back from the dead, then the necromancer is doing as person\'s wish, not something bad. However, should a necromancer kill someone by stealing the person\'s soul, giving the necromancer increased strength and what-not, then the necromancer is evil. I\'m sure that is very easy to understand. :)
This isn\'t necessarily how PlaneShift works, it\'s just the simple basics of spellcasting, and according to these, any spellcaster can do anything, no matter which area he is focused on. A white mage can cause death and destruction as much as a necromancer, he will just do it in a diffrent way, and it will be much harder. A satanist can bless someone, however it is much more difficult from him than for a priest to give a blessing. What is easy for some people is very difficult for others, but it can be done.

I\'ll be a thief/roque ,i like the mystery behind it...

I\'d be a lowly pickpocket who is without parents. And eventually harden and become a Mercenary. Yeah

God speed, young karate guy. |:d

yes yes but what will karrate do against my fire and death attacks? nothing!

I think I\'ll wanna become something that allows me to use the great charisma that my character will have ..
So the choices are:
- Bard / Madrigal
- Priest / Cleric
- Paladin
I don\'t think I\'ll like to fight so the last goes down
I don\'t wanna be something religious for any reason
Right now Madrigal could be the best choice to be a sort of spy, a diplomat or even a merchant ..
See ya!
( P.S. : I hope the game will come out soon )

There are no classes in PS, your point being?
-
Sigh. There is no class called Graverobber to model after I haven\'t seen it in any other game, maybe a subclass or kit, so I don\'t think you could really call it a class. If you are a thief, you could do some grave robbing...
You could have used your imagination and figured that out :p
-
I\'m gonna base myself on a Crusader, in the sense that I\'m a religious soldier, with a common goal of ridding the world of evil :D
-
Im going for a knight! Go knights!
-
A Paladin or a Fighter I hope .....
-
In cb i gona be a lemur magician of the blue way as well as a herbalist.

I don\'t really like disagreeing with people like this... but you are wrong Psybur. He was quite right to call Graverobber a class. and as for...

That\'s precisely what he meant when he said...
Originally posted by Cybio Kingfist

Unique as in one-of-a-kind.
A graverobber could be a class.
Taken from Dictionary.com
A set, collection, group, or configuration containing members regarded as having certain attributes or traits in common; a kind or category
Therefore, technically anything can be a class...
For example I could fashion my character after a panhandler (begger) or perhaps a dancer (dancing does not have to be a profession).
-
Since I lost the discussion about what is, and what isn\'t a class....
.....I think that makes me playing a dumb dwarf.
(although I\'m not that small.......I got some RL experience with being less inteligent ;) ).
Job......well a miner of course. No need to be smart to do the dumb work, and no communication skills are needed, cause I\'m gonna dig deep.
(I think thats the best for GworthoX, aswell for the other players :P )
-
I plan on being a knight with some necromantic skills. A happy little combination I like to call a Deathnight.
-
God :))
-
Severian: Is that meant to be deathknight? ala Warcraft series?
Leji: That\'s an interesting ambitition, good to see you in the forums. I am Tyralus, I hope you are still playing the game?
-
Well I\'ll probably be a Ylian Miner/Smithy and drinking buddy with Mr. GworthoX and the rest of the blitzer craftsmen.
-
I don\'t know what you\'d call it, but my char is probably going to train animals for her own use and learn the brown way of magic. Maybe a bit of a thief too.
-

Thanks ! I\'m glad to have found a place to spread my tortured thoughts :D
-
Mages of Planeshift unite! I\'ve decided that I\'m going to be a pure mage, as in, no use of any weapons whatsoever.
-
A miner/smither, I might explore some other areas but only too give a basic grounding and explore other areas to my craft if possible. Who knows maybe even the arcane may come into my profession years down the track.
-
hmmmm probably a tactiatian/ solider
-
Dancer, yay! :) Or at least some kind of performer, with a streak of wonderlust :)
-
A paladin...
-
Animal trainer all da way =p
-
One of my Chars (Enki) is going to model after \"Animal Trainer\"
& The other (A Klyros) is going to be a Ranger-like mage using mostly Azure Blue & Brown, but maybe mostly Crystal Magic mastering Lightning...
-
Im going to have one charecter for a very long time. It will be a lemur specializing in the dark way. I will be almost a pure mage carrying only a staff as my weapon.
Im not 100% sure on what job to chose yet but im between a Healer and Pharmisist. My goal is to use all my skill points to increase my summons and dark way magic then to use my job points for healing. So Ill have devastating attacks and will be able to heal myself :).
If I ever make another account it will be a knigh who is all strength, speed, and endurance.
-
My main will most likely be a Nolthrir ranger type.
Medium armor, high bow skills, high weapon skills. Spear would be my favorite, sword comes 2nd. Though dual-wielded daggers would probably be more efficient, with higher dex for the ranging...but I like that too
I\'ll probably put spare points in climbing and lockpicking, and a little bit in one martial arts line, if possible and if it offers the effects I\'m looking for (self-buffs, mainly)
An alt could be a Kran meatshield/skullbasher. Heavy armor, and a huge warhammer or 2-handed axe. All bent on charging at the enemies and taking most of the hits instead of your teammates...while hearing the sweet sound of your enemies\' bones getting crushed.
Or a Klyros mage, red and crystal ways, light armor, and a staff.
-
I\'m going to be a mage. So i can use lots of flame and stuff :).
as a weapon i\'ll use a staff with a big shining orb at the top of it.
-
im gonna have a Mage,Archer and a builder(to make me a house :))
-
Good to see that there wont be much competition to become the only God of Planeshift :D
I think I\'ll be a good God, if you\'re nice to me and good looking :)
Peace and Love Planegamers
-
Explorer/ Mage/ Fighter, if possible one who can craft his (or her) own equipment. Details will depend on the possibilities of the game.
-

And what would the skill setup be for a god? You would need massive magic AND virtual immortality. That means maxing out magic and mental stats AND maxing out body development and endurance and heavy armour and anti.magic etc. And you would have to be BEST in everything of this to be accepted as a god or people will just laugh at you. :)
But, well... I understand that it was a joke.

Magical Assasin! For sure ;)

Cohdra, just so as not to disappoint you, this thread refers to classes people will model after, not choose.
There are no actual classes in PS, the reason being there is high emphasis on roleplaying, so not everyone in the world will be a fighter, mage etc...
To become a \'warrior monk\', you would just take skills in the martial arts schools, not choose the class monk.
Sorry if you knew this.
-
I belive I will be a form of knight errant as this would suit my loner lifestyle: kill the badguy, get the loot, get the girl:)
-
I want to be a medium ranger/paladin type person... and your local weapon/armorsmith :)
but I strive for that in all games and go nowhere... hope this game is different :)
I just like having a nice longsword for close range. but being a stalker with my bow, screw shields though... some nice chainmailish/leather type armor and a few healing spells and im good to go :)
-
a Spy, someone who collects rumors and Infos and sell them for money! Nasty Nasty
-
Fighter, or in this case warrior as it is called.
And NO not because i\'ll be doing mostly \"bad\" things \'n fighting, i see myself more as an explorer of sorts. It\'s the profession/role that suits me the best simply because i like it (somewhat general profession).
I\'ve been playing this kind of character ever since i started playing AD&D computer games since \"Eye of the Beholder\"!

TY for posting this. When I read \"Character Creation\"
I sort of got that idea, but it\'s nice to hear it in a bit more detail :)
I\'ve always liked monks from RPG\'s, so I will definitely shape a character in that direction...maybe a bit of magic as well. I haven\'t decided on anything else yet...I like exploring/searching/scavenging though
-
If posible, I will aim for Shaman like...
But that realy depends..
-
healer... You know a healer is the center of each evoluated band...
-
I think a druid would be a nice iddea... although a paladin also seems promising :)
-
well, it seems i will be something that you would call a palladin, thou i dont want it to be one.
Its just that every heavy armor melee fighter with healing spells is a palladin, so gues il then be one...
-
...Probably a monk tipe class...
oh sorry i\'m new and i\'m italian hello boys and girls, how are you all??? :)
(sorry for my english but as i said i\'m Italian) ciao ciaoooooooooooo
-
I\'ll be the exploring type, although I\'ll also be an armour smithy and a Melee Fighter. (My preferred weapon is the large Double-Edged Axe.)
-
Prisident of the United States [/idiot]
First I want to train swordfighting. When I have alot of techiques and skills I want to become a mercenary. I will do verious jobs, killing people for money, guarding people etc. As long as you can pay me I\'ll do what you want. The better I become the more money I ask.
I\'m not gonna study magery or something. As 2nd job I might be a miner or something. Maybe i\'ll start with mining to build up some money.
-
Pure Ice Sorcerer
-
Pure Ice, aren\'t you going to be weaker near hot and warm areas where there are typically more fire type monsters?
-
hahah, good friend
Pour some water on some fire and see what happerns :)
-
Yeah... but that\'s water, not ice. Drop an icecube in a fire and you see what happens. :P Know your RPG elements!
-
hey, it depends how big the ice and how strong the fire... >:(
-
exactly, a little raindrop could put out a candle, but you would need a bucket of water to put out a camp fire, or a huge storm to put out a bush fire, 1 to 1, = D
-
I will be a scientiest/alchemist with alot of magic casting. not shure which type of magic though. i\'ll decide when i see what spells each way offers.
-
actually you can find that out in the character setup screen. When your finally selecting which magic way you want to start off with points in, it\'ll show you...
-
I?ll probably be a wandering healer who cures the injured ones free of charge and collects herbs to have an income. Either that or a wizard, I live for magic. :)
-
A Shaman of course...
With herbalism stuff and astral moves :D
-
Warrior/Archer/Fletcher, since arrows are always in demand.
-
a very evil necromancer
-
sniper/ranger
-
I\'m hoping Planeshift does not mimic EQ or similar games. I would like to see a different experience. For instance, if you were a human you could start off as a warrior and maybe turn into a ranger or even cleric. Or be an elf-type and start as a wizard and become a necromancer or shaman. I\'m just hoping for a different style of play experience.
As for me, I will probably start as a magic user of some type. Then create a warrior type.
-
im most likely going with a heavy armor, longsword & shield paladin. if i decide not to though, i might make more of a duel weilding, medium aremor hunter.
what do you think would be a good race for a paladin? a Ylian? or maybe a kran? i want to have some decent healing powers, but still be able to hold my own out guiding the way for the common folk, maybe a dungeon crawl, possible mining.
also, what kind of rideable animals will be implemented once they are ready? more fantasy like creatures, or will we see some horses?
-
Im going to be a Kran and gonig to tank. Animal trianer to make cash , and have enpathy for a pet lol, i like tnaking i feel like nothin can stop me
-
do the Followers of Laanx have a website? as i am going to most likely be a paladin, i am looked online everywhere, and only found a few links, of which were dead.
-
well if u want to have healing powers i wouldnt go with a kran 8th limit for magic, i bet playing as a paladin would be pretty kool.
-
ive usually always been a paladin first in rpg\'s. i just cant stay away from shiny armor! do you know if we will be able to add stats to the stats on the main races page like in the MB creation to further customize?
-
I\'m going to be a wizard, probably not a pure mage but rather a warlock or something like that. Magic in planeshift is going to be cool.
-
Totally, a Sage :P
Just cus I\'m a wiseguy... girl
-
well id b a erm.. animal trainer person with a bit of other skillz like ranger stuff and maybe a bit of magic
with an emforsis on the flying animals
(obsest with flying) <(-.^)>\\,,/
-
I\'ll make 2 chars x3
One will be a Assasin and the other one will be a priest-like thingie (Support Spells and so on ^^)
-
I\'m going for a Mage/Alchemist guy. I also wanna be able to ride those flying animals as my transportation to get to my incredibly important appointments. (I love flying too)

An axe wielding, shelid smashing, warrior dwarf.
-
Dwarven Blacksmith with a big Axe.
Well, that\'s gonna be my main char. Got 4 slots haven\'t I :)
-
A Double Sword Rogue Fanatic ;)
-
Well I was going to go with my typical Mage type, but seeing as we arent restricted in what we do, perhaps I will go with a dual wielding rogue with some magical ability.
(Vlad Taltos series anyone???)

-
A bard. As typical as they get. Artistic skills. Some combat skills, some rouge skills some magic....some of everything, best at nothing ;)
-
for me, it like to be a technomage... just dont know how this should work in planeshift without beeing called a cheater ;)
-
I\'ll be a kind of a Diplomatic rogue magician (still dunno how can i be those 3 things at the same time :)).
-
I will wield two swords until the time comes that I can train my preferred skills.
At that time I will become a melee rogue/mage who trains flying beasts.
-
Im gonna be a master sorceror who can controls monster! gnark gnark gnark :)
-
I\'ve always, no matter what the game, gravitated toward the character who hides in shadows, works by night, unseen by all. An acrobat catburgler who climbs in the second story window, uses a rope to cross silently over the guards in the great hall, and picks the locks not into the treasury but into the Lord\'s study to steal the war plans. The next week those plans are foiled by the opposing army and the rogue walks away with a heavy purse.

I havent played the game yet, but a merchent sounds prety cool, but ne at all that has sugestions(srry bad spelling) plz let me know, thnx :)
-
ok, to clear up me ol\' post.
red/dark way with blacksmithing and martial arts..... and swordsmandship.
-
Always tended to one of three classes ranger, rogue or mage in previous incarnations
mage / alchemist here is attractive
...though becoming a pure mage is a stretch with the current state of the world
so how about mage who mines a lot, and kills critters with a weapon to get PP?
Keep up the great work devs. The world is getting better all the time!
-
Wandering Warrior Monk.
-
Paladin - aka Knight aka Tin Can aka Tank
-
Shadow bard. Bard+Assassin+Black Magic User.
AKA, weakling who jabbers a lot and laughs spooky.
-
Rogue, hiding away in the shadows, waiting for the surpirse attack :D!
-
Spy.
-
Definately an artisan. Already got 10 mining!
-
Knight with one shield and one sword who use only Crystal way
-
Just though i\'d wish this horribly mispelled thread of mine a happy 2nd birthday :D
-
Magician of the Red and Azure ways, there I have said it *walks off*
-
Current primary character: War Sage. Going to focus on the Red way to aid patrons in battle, should it be required, and dabble in the other ways. Probably focus on defense more than anything else.
Intended future character, if they ever have a decent-looking model for it: Red Way+Dark Way+Stealth+Light Weapons. Red way will be the main focus. Bugger\'ll torch foes from the shadows, and sneak off in the smoke. So, essential, Pyro Ninja. Muhaha.
-
A mage thief, like in my OLD AD&D paper and pencil days. I think I will even try the old leather and dagger, part time spell slinger role too.
-
A necromancer and a strong fighter.
-
I am, at heart, a Mage. EVERY character I play leans toward that style of design in some way. I\'ve even converted Fighter characters to have some traits of the mystic.
-
Cleric / Healer of any sort.
This is the first type of character I make in any RPG based game I play. It\'s always handy haveing a heal spell / ability when learning new games.
-
A Sword Master, with a few extra tricks up the sleeves, such as crystal way, and maybe a pet, among other things...
-
A mage of the Dark and Red ways. Done.
-
Well, I would like to be the equalivalent of a Red Mage/ Paladin. So primarily a warrior skilled in the Cystal way.
-
Hm, Im going to try to be a bit of everything. Sort of an odd mix of medium/light longswordsman thief/rogue nightblade. Basically i hate to \"have\" to rely on others, though i guess other people are ok sometimes ;)

I have pretty much a samekind of idea what I am/will be. My plan is to be a rogue with some fighter characteristics and skills. And maybe in the future there will be some mage skills also, who knows? ;)

Indeed. Even though i dont plan on having a \"healer\" type char i think a lot of people would like a nice healing glyph. Imho this would encourage partying and would in turn make combat a bit more fun for some.

So rather than be really good at a few things, you\'re gonna totally stink at lots? That sounds cool...

Not sure was this ment for me also, but since I have pretty similar plans with Drog, I\'ll also answer.. ;)
Of course my plan is to be good in rogue skills and everything related in it. But on the otherhand I want also to have some fighting/casting skills which might help me occassionally to be a rogue and to survive in the world of PS.

edit: added that smiley
-
I will be an offensive mage... also learn some crafting skills so i can repair my own stuff
-
i think i will be priest based, probably use staves if they exist in the game, but mostly whatever gives me the best stat bonuses (in true caster fashion)i just came from wow, where the priest is VERY usefull, as you can be either shadow, and do LITERALLY the most dmg in the game (short time periods only, lol) or be the most effective healer in the game, in this game definately going healer if i can, dunno yet, only at 26% downloaded, lol
-
ooh a ressurection ^^ seems we got a necromancer forumite *points*
a little old this thread be, but no harm is done to us or to thee
take care in future, be aware of dates when ye post
for I know this, I am being kinder then most ;)
-
I plan on being a Wanderer / Tavern Rat / Necromancer / Mediocre Fighter
For a Darkish kind of play, but I\'m actually good, just.... need to have that Dark/mysterious/silent type good guy
-
some Woodelf archer/ monk guy... i would have a close compainionship with animals though
-
Abyssal Demon-ability to teleport around oppnents(I made this monster for runescape tey just stole it from 1 of meh friends)
-
Mage/Cook/Scientist
Because:
I like magic;
I like cooking;
I like researching stuff;
I like advanced technology in a mediaval/fanatsy world.
-
I\'D be a robin hood type theif except id steal from the rich and split the money between me and the poor. OR.......... Id be a Inn Owner
-
Blacksmith (armors and all kinds of weapons, but specialized in swords, axes and hammers) and fighter (have to check my merchandise\'s quality before I sell it, right?). A stubborn hard-to-deal-with blacksmith who values his work above all else, in look for warriors worthy of his weapons and will not sell his stuff to just anyone.
-
go around killling evil
I\'m more like an anti-hero in this case
do good in what I do bad
-
You know, the guys that explore the new places and name it a certain region, name the creatures that live there... Or maybe I should be a Paradan... the guys that will never cause bloodshed and will protest anywhere where it is common... Like the arena for instance... Nah.... Forerunners are way better ;)
-
either a ranger/mage or a mage/crafter but deffinetly some sort of mage.
-
Kind of a squire. A cowardly squire.
-
I want to be a mage/alchemist/tinkerer who can defend himself with bow and arrow, if magic and potions fail.
-
Paladinic Squire.
Too clumsy, stupid, and cowardly to be an actual Paladin.
-
As far as following a generic class. Vay\'s a rogue. Stealthy and agile, pretty much sums it up :P
As for how I\'ll RP him (which may also affect the class) He\'s pretty much an ex-assassin. His old guild is trying to hunt him down for kidnapping a girl instead of killing her :P
-
I would be a pure wizard....of the red way...
-
Necromancer, Rogue, warrior and mage. :D
-
Im going to be a druid.... with huge sword and no armour. And i shall spout wisdom from street corners and from under the shade of a large tree.
-
Ranger
