My suggestion for classes in TMW is a follows:

Added to the menu buttons on the top right of the gameplay screen there would be a class button where you could change you class. We could also call classes job, proffessions, etc. Choosing a class will give you stat bonuses, but will restric the spells, weapons, and armor you can use.

Some potential classes:


Warrior:Basic melee fighter. User of swords, axes, maces, hammers etc. Not that great with ranged weapons Ninja:Can use most swords and knives, along with thrown weapons(throwing stars, kunii, sinban, etc.) Rouge:Can use most knives and thrown weapons. Some offensive magic. Mage:Your basic magic user. Primarily elemental offensive magic, with some healing magic and summoning magic. Druid:Nature mage. Can use some bows, but primarily relies on summoning magic and nature related spells (entangling vines, wild shape, etc.) Ranger:Master of all objects that can make you go "ouch" at distance Sorcerer:A magic user that uses completely offensive magic, with no defensive/healing magic Cleric:A magic user

If you have more ideas, post them below and please don't put them up with my ideas:

Thanks for your input, but we already decided to use a classless character system. For more information read Skill system and Attributes. --15:54, 22 April 2008 (CEST)

Perhaps the classes should be based upon non-combat skills. For example, someone who loves to mine could become a miner, which would give them mining bonuses. Of course, you would be able to change classes, but unlocking a class would have some criteria to meet.
