The Next Hero Pirate Idea/Theory

First of all sorry if the title was misleading. >.<

I just wanted to throw out what I think the Pirate Hero will be.

Now before you all start saying things like "there is no Pirate Hero and will never be one", lemme say this.. YOU DON'T KNOW THIS FOR SURE, so don't just assume that just because this whole M.A.P.L.E thing has been finished; means that there will never be one. F3

Ok so let me start off with the current Heros

[b]Aran[/b] - A class based on a [i]combo system[/i] with the element of [i]Snow/Ice[/i]
[b]Evan[/b] - A class based on a [i]pact/bond with a Dragon[/i] that uses the elements of [i]Lighting, Fire, and Ice[/i]
[b]Mercedes[/b] -A class based on the [i]agility/speed[/i] with the element of [i]Air and Earth[/i]? (How you say? Shes an Elf! The first thing that comes up when I think of an Elf is a forest or some Earth-like scene)
[b]Phantom[/b] - A class that is based on [i]skill stealing system[/i] not sure what element he represents or if he even has one
[b]Luminous[/b] - A class fully based on [i]balancing system[/i] with the elements of [i]Dark and Light[/i]

Now what I think the Pirate Hero will be based of is Time and Space with the element of Water. Why?

1. It will truly be unique just like all the other heros with the Time and Space "system"?
2. The Pirate has potential of using a timer based skill just look at the skills [skill=Buccaneer=Time Leap], [skill=Buccaneer=Speed Infusion] and [skill=Corsair=Hypnotize] this shows Pirates are capable of using time based skills in the near future. (I don't know how they will come up with a way for skills to be Time and Space based but thats what makes it unique!)
3. Notice they added Elements but missed or didnt add any water elements to any of the other classes.. maybe because it fits the Pirate class the best?
4. Jett is from "space" and shes/hes a Pirate!
[quote=Miauri]5. Use water element because pirates spended their life on the 7 seas.[/quote]

I think the only reason Nexon has not shown details of the Pirate Hero is because they're having trouble coming up ideas or skills. Or dont see how to make it work so that it is unique.

I don't know about you guys but I would LOVE to see a Pirate based of a Time and Space system with maybe the element of Water.

Now I don't care if you think I am wrong, I just wanted to throw this out there cause of the way the classes are being based off of.

[b]EDIT:[/b] The storyline for Luminous has not been released yet so no one is 100% sure, thus no one can call it a Hero just yet. This also might uncover more about the Pirate hero?

[quote=Degero]I had an idea earlier about a "pirate hero".
They command the seas... literally. Their weapons could be pendants that channel energy that control the water element. Their attacks could range from freezing enemies, using water to slow enemies, an AOE skill that resembles "Surf" from Pokemon, summoning beings from Aqua Road, etc... Think waterbending from Avatar, with some summoning abilities and other gimmicks.

Another funny thought I had was adding a skill that had the pirate hero get drunk. The screen would get blurry, and would start rotating. At this point, every monster kill you got with your drunken styled attacks would do more damage. Your health would also deteriorate over time, though.[/quote]

LOL Don't mock me! F3

[quote=Morokoo]Pretty sure they won't have ten heroes.. you know considering they have had it be you know.. five for quite awhile now.

If anything it will be a new set of classes that at some point fought the Black Mage as well.
People were saying Kyrin's father fought the Black Mage, if so then how old is Kyrin? Is she part Elf? Because if I remember correctly the battle with the Black Mage was over 200-300 years before Maplestory started.[/quote]Kyrin is 20. We don't know if she's part Elf, her hat covers her ears. There are multiple ways of releasing a pirate hero. Her father, Testonen, died in the fight, BUT he could have written a secret skillbook or something.

It's name would probably be Palkia or something like that.

Edit: @Morokoo I think Nexon has screwed up the game's timeline. It's starting to look more and more like the battle against the Black Mage was closer to 20 or 30 years ago. Dances with Balrog was himself a baby at the end of the Black Mage's reign and I'm pretty sure he isn't part elf.

5. Use water element because pirates spended their life on the 7 seas.

[quote=RayEatsKids]or maybe they already have the heroes and since pirates didn't exist in the past we have future pirates now?[/quote]

:O That could be another reason.

There is no water element in the game. The closest to it is ice. Also, Luminous' elements are already implemented in game (Dark/Holy magic).
