If you could create a new explorer class
What would your ideas be? Mine would be something along the lines of a new support mage that has the power to control the dead and uses the power of darkness for skills. I think it should be called a Necromancer (yeap I know, not really original but it still sounds legit). It could be like the opposite of a Bishop and they can borrow some of their skills but maybe the animations are inverted... though maybe not Dark Genesis since Battle Mages get that (imo it has hardly anything to do with the rest of BaMs attacking style so idk why they do). They could instead of heal party members, give them a super short buff that turns them into undead so they won't lose HP for a split second, though it could be very useful when spammed.
Another idea of mine is that there should be a new type of Ranged-Warrior that specializes in throwing spears. It could clash with the original spearmen, though.
and to be quite honest, the Warrior job does need more creativity with their classes. Just attacking repeatedly with blunt weapons and swords etc isn't my kind of thing and they're quite bland compared to the other classes... I probably have a different opinion to others. That's why I think something new for warriors - such as something ranged attacking - would be great.
And yet I have another idea: A close combat "Ninja" class. Yeah Nightlords can be considered ninjas already... But they only throw stars. Aren't ninjas supposed to be swinging around buildings and breaking blocks of wood with their hands stuff like that? There could be a class that specializes in hand-to-hand combat and martial arts. Basically just a martial-arts-ninja-type class that punches and karate chops enemies etc.
I'm not saying that any of these classes SHOULD be added, just having a bit of fun in desgining a new make-believe class
What classes would you guys like to see?

Out of the three options the last one is what I'd rather see, (a ranged warrior is, well, I'm not sure how that would work really, warriors are known for defensive and raw damage and always melee, It wouldn't hurt to play around and break the norm though haha). As for the dark mage, I'd love to see some kind of necromancer class, of course most people will be saying that we already have BaM's but they are more of a melee mage, not necromancers. These are better ideas than most other threads I've seen.
Another [b]class[/b] isn't necessary.

A 'tribal' or 'native' [b]job[/b] would be neat! They'd be put in the Bowman class.
They could incorporate a [i]Taru[/i] community with the iTCG weapons:

[quote=Heatless]Get rid of summoning skills on Wild Hunter and have it focus more on the jaguar.
Make a class solely based on catching monsters and using them for battle.[/quote]
so then.. summoner? or however its spelt really.. I mean just like I/L & F/P we could choose between summoning or catching. if summoning its a whole new style of monsters that they could introduce only for this class while those catching get what we have now in the maple world.
@UnicornZebra:
okay, you still don't seem to get that these are only ideas. i'm still going to argue anyway because you can't seem to deal with them at ALL and that is what annoys me.
1: you get hit like once every 5 seconds if you're bossing. if you're mobbing, i'm pretty sure everyone is doing their best to avoid the mobs, so it would be helpful if there's like a battle mage that attacks directly in the centre of all the mobs to be invincibilised(?) every, say, 4 seconds, so it probably won't get spammed as i stated before, but still used and is helpful but not OP. Don't you know about that Holy Magic Shell skill that priests get? with buff mastery+some hyper-skill mastery skill points added to it, it could be used continuously with only 5 seconds before the recast which pretty much makes them invincible ALL THE TIME except for the short 5 seconds they use to jump around and avoid getting hit before they can recast. the undead party skill sholdn't really be considered overpowered.
2: i was thinking that it's not thrown all the time, but it could have some skills that involved it being thrown with a ton of damage dealt, but they have to recollect it after it's thrown. imo, it definitely sounds less boring than waving a spear around all the time. and try not to be sarcastic because it shows how immature you are lol.
3: real immature. how old are you anyway? don't you know any manners? respect my ideas and maybe i could scrape up an ounce of respect left for you.
i don't care if you're "half kidding". i'm going to take this seriously because you don't seem to know that i've already been offended...

2 handed blunt/axe class
or a third bowman <3
edit: ugh, double posted. gg basil.
[quote=UnicornZebra]Lol a mage that can spam invincibility on their party, really
A spearman that specializes in throwing spears, honestly I would uninstall if anything like this came out
A short range ninja class, already have it, Shadower, they're skills are literally representative of ninjas in Korea
your ideas r bad[/quote]
1: [i]"a mage that can spam invincibility on their party, really"[/i] it's not like you're getting hit by enemies 100% of the time. the majority of the time, everyone's avoiding the mobs anyway so it would be kinda limited.
2: [i]"A spearman that specializes in throwing spears, honestly I would uninstall if anything like this came out"[/i] it's basically just another ranged class like marksmen and bowmen? why is it even such a bad idea?
3: [i]"A short range ninja class, already have it, Shadower, they're skills are literally representative of ninjas in Korea"[/i] do you think i would suggest my idea if i haven't thought about it? of course i f**king know about shadower, jfc. they use daggers anyway and from my recollection of memory, i am pretty sure i said CLOSE RANGED MARTIAL ARTS CLASS THAT USES KARATE LIKE SKILLS AND MOVES. not another class that carries daggers and kataras around. didn't you get what i was implying?
and last of all, i'm actually kinda offended how you can go around saying that my ideas - basically my creativity - is bad. i clearly stated that i don't think they should be added and i'm only having fun in desgning some make believe classes. you didn't seem to get that and you're saying that you would "uninstall" if one of them came out... do you have to be so harsh? anyway, i'm asking from this thread on what others' ideas are. not for you to judge MY ideas. i was simply giving an example and sharing what i thought. what are your ideas, by the way? i doubt they'd be creative at all since you can't even simply cope with the idea of another close-combat thief class. apparently there can only be 1 of them.
by the way, i think i could give you a tip on life: don't be such a d**che bag. respect others' ideas and opinions.
How about a [url=http://www.evo.com/imgp/1500/56283/307083/wesc-magnus-windbreaker-jacket-pompeian-red-front.jpg]wind breaker[/url]
or a thunder archer
or a dawn wizard
Bowman Class that uses Boomerangs
Ballista Archer? They can mount at a safe spot and use the cursor to scroll the map and aim. Kinda like that one mini-game at Crimsonwood Keep where you had to click the Jr. Wraiths. I'm not sure what the skills would be like, but one of them should be something that can shoot a lightning bolt that can stun a large area of effect, giving you time to aim precisely. Another skill can be a head shot skill, instant death if aimed at a mob's head area. It can have a lightning element summon, like Zapdos. It can probably stun and damage mobs that gets too close to your safe spot, or fly off on it's own and bring thunder down on mobs and stun them.
Another thread gave me the idea: Avatar !
Tribal Archer with a Long Bow (and make it the longest ranged class period)
Best idea for a new class-One.
If nexon were stupid enough to come up with an idiotic name like zero, we should expect the whole series of 1-9
a archer class that uses both bows and Xbows.
the class uses elemental powers and can switch from each element.
A bowman class that uses a sniper rifle. Very slow attack speed but 100% critical and high damage
New bowman. Perhaps similar to vayne from LOL. Slippery ^.^

I also got an idea for a Pancake Knight and a Mexican Taco chef class.
Dual gunslinger. BOOM.
Amazon the spear-throwing Archer
Make a class that's like a mage but has no weapon, it uses it mind as a weapon i.e it cna use telekinesis.
I got an idea. Why don't they take all of the good shadower skills and all of the good night lord skills and combine them into one class and call it explorer?
It could be like some flashy dagger wielding class but super op.
Good for sales and just makes all the maplers happy.
win win right?
Spear throwing? lol idk
[quote=xTagg]Okay here me out....
It would be exactly like an aran but.....

A mage class that has five mechanical arms and uses spoons to fight.
Okay here me out....
It would be exactly like an aran but.....

The missing Archer explorer.
