Discussion: Redefinition and Redistribution of Actions, Abilities, and Weapon Skills

[Tibian]

What are some changes you would like to see to the current game classes in regards to their skills?

Rearrange almost all of the mage skills to be either a healer or dps.

I'm actually quite confused as to how they are going to full off WHM and BLM. THM just doesn't fit..unless they have something else planned for THM, job-wise. But that would mean 2 jobs for CON, and we all know everyone would freak if that happened even if it is obvious that CON is technically two classes.

I honestly just figured (and am hoping) that they just aren't releasing both BLM and WHM at the start, since they just said what jobs whose names they had finalized, not specifically which ones were coming out first. Giving CON both BLM and WHM would be able to keep the lore around both of the jobs just the way it is and be a lot nicer to those that leveled CON as a nuker or as a healer, or hell even people like me that like doing both functions at once.

Also consider that if either THM or CON become designated healers it defeats the purpose of having WHM come out in the first place and makes it extremely difficult for that class to solo.

Nope they said the ones they revealed are the first batch of jobs being released - 1 job per class. So CON and THM are indeed going to get WHM and BLM. It isn't entirely clear which should get which at this point - which is why I expect the changes they mentioned being especially drastic for the mages.
