Hunting class for DOL

[Eloah]

Don't get me wrong in saying this, but aren't the DoW and DoM like hunters? Especially since you can send your DoW/DoM retainer out to farm for the items in question.

Indeed, they are, but what I would like to see implemented is a more solid way to gather the mob drops. Having an RNG drop rate off of mobs that require to be killed, and then spawn in again, is likely less efficient than fishing, which is already an unfortunate (but understandable) RNG system of producing materials. And again, yeah, retainers can go out and collect as well, but that is hardly as new player friendly as the two main gathering classes. At this point, that requires you either already have a nearly maxed or max level retainer, or you spend the next eternity trying to get them leveled up. Plus, you only get two for subbing. When compared to MIN and BTN, the yield, dependability, and overall time investment pale in comparison.

I agree, sending retainers for materials is so limited and it not something I would call "fun". We do not get to see them do it, or aid in any way really. And your DOM/W's are like hunter's, however they do nothing in aid to drops. Not to mention that if someone else is there farming materials that you are going for can cause conflicts and support rude behavior. It makes leather working, cooking and alchemy a major pain. I could see the class working like Map hunting or an archaeology class where you find tracks and scout an area to find more tracks or the mob in specific. The more you do it the more proficient you become in hunting that type of mob.

Again, would also love a shop. I know in the first story line you would deal and interact with different big wigs with the fingers on the markets. It would be fun to be able to interact with that and have a story of an up and coming trader/business influence.

@braxberry Completely agree with you.
