I would like to see a character use actual guns and artillery. I know this is a kid friendly game but it'd be fun. I assume the majority player base is a little over 18. It'd be cool to see a thief use spy gadgets with guns , call in a helicopter strike.

    Eh. There are enough classes with guns/bullets, missiles and explosions.

    I would personally prefer an addition of a dark mage/necromancer. Too many goodie two shoes heroes running about. Heck, even the demon turned good when betrayed by the Black Mage. Let's add some dark options.

    dark mage is battle mage, they use darkness element. Just like knight walker is also dark element, battle mage also fits into what couldve been a necromancer.

    Which classes use guns? only one that relatively fits would be wild hunter and corsair, but i mean modern guns like desert eagles and sniper rifles, drone strikes and such. but something to make it spy related. I suppose blaster also uses guns but in a different way. gauntlet guns

    I doubt theyll make a villain option to play, theyd have to make a "good" boss.

    I don't just mean dark element. But dark. Storyline is they don't care about anyone or anything except for their desire to get stronger. They can still beat up the same mobs and bosses but just for the purpose of pursuing ultimate dominance of the world . Writing for it would be a bit of a hassle but I'm sure there are a few out there that would LOVE a project like that. That or they can do a cop out and say "I'll play along with their little games until I achieve my ultimate goal."

    A neat idea (dunno how far it'd get) is a Chef class that can turn those useless/semi-useless etc drops into dishes that they can use as attacks or buffs.

    Which later turned into the Beefy's Kitchen event.

    One of the best events we've had in the game. And it felt like it had been planned to be so much bigger. I wish they'd bring it back, and maybe full-force too.

    I'm still waiting on a Bowman Hybrid character myself:

    Either a Bowman Mage, or a Bowman Warrior, etc.

    Sir, I also do want Ayame to become a real class. I'd play the heck out of it.

    I want a straight up water mage. Not Tb, which is okay, but it doesn't have what a water mage could do. I feel like there so much that water can be used to do, and Tb hasn't quite done it justice.

    That would be dope. Mages usually come with two elements though so what would the second be? Maybe grass

    I agree, I think that nature/plants and such would be one of the only main areas to go into.

    A lot of people care about balance when there's a lot of comp mid/endgame of who can do the highest numbers or kill something the fastest.

    A Water/Nature mage would be pretty neat idea, especially when they could have stacked effects like plants that do extra damage when in a rainstorm or summon plant minions that travel on one lane that have hp but can be healed with a mist that also slows down enemies or something like that.

    we getting creative now. give them a rainstorm to attack and a sun skill that heals. (photosynthesis)

    Eh, can't really give em a sun thing since that's kinda fire which is why I thought of mist. Could also have a fruit tree that drops fruit once fully nurtured that does a partial heal. Nothing too powerful so the class doesn't become op but there needs to be more healing classes.
