[COMMUNITY PROJECT] MISSIONGARDE -- CLASS REFINING IN PROGRESS

Nice job making a broken character class, CP.

Nobleman's is also stretching.

Edited to be completely impractical and useless, like any good high-end, late game class should.

EDIT: A lot of them are stretching. I figured, why not make every class equally broken?

Also, physical-absorbent enemies give Marauders hell.
The battle commands alone make it overpowered. Seriously. Elite does not mean doing a bajillion roles at once. From defending the entire party, hitting like a truck and all the way to cleaning everyone's dick.
There's no rule that we have to have every class listed here. For example, I don't think I could reasonably pull off most of the Necromancer's skills... :(

Now for some more basic classes...

The battle commands alone make it overpowered. Seriously. Elite does not mean doing a bajillion roles at once. From defending the entire party, hitting like a truck and all the way to cleaning everyone's dick.

The problem with this exercise is exactly that. They can only make one class, so they make it OMGAWESOME, not thinking about what sort of synergy other classes will have. See, I can do it too:

Ninja:

HP:
MP:
STR:
DEF:
INT:
AGL:

Battle Commands: (Explain any new ones)
ATTACK - Attacks 3 times.
NARUTO STRIKE - Inflict silence, blind, and paralyze to all enemies. Cannot fail.
HADOKEN - Destroys entire enemy party and increases the player's power level in real life.
NORRIS ESCAPE - Guaranteed escape from a random encounter, party still gets full XP and Gold.
I never said they can make only 1 class...

EXP leveling: Average
Equipment Notes: Things like weapons (that aren't fists) and armor are not for the God Hand for they are a sign of weakness. God Hands only wear one thing: Face Punching Cloths which give no defense but offer increased evasion.

General Notes: Creativity? Madness and Malarky! (Also clearly not balanced, I'd probably raise the MP+ of the techniques or something.)
Craze

^ This should use monsters the tamer has previously defeated.
This is spiraling into the realm of unweildly implementationism.

Basic:
Soldier
Cleric
Evoker
Generica Kid

Advanced:
Carnitank
Cryomancer
Magic Hunter
Randomizer
Knight
Tamer
Garou

Elite:
God Hand

These guys could beat Jesus in a fight:
Huntsman
Ninja

Save this class for when Craze or GRS starts an RMVX community class-based game a.k.a. This is beyond what is reasonable for Rm2k3:
Necromancer
Tamer (maybe... Are you thinking of actually having monsters fight by your side, or more of a Rydia-type Caller where she summons a Chocobo that does damage? The former isn't really possible in Rm2k3)

Tamer (maybe... Are you thinking of actually having monsters fight by your side, or more of a Rydia-type Caller where she summons a Chocobo that does damage? The former isn't really possible in Rm2k3)

It is possible to have the summon replace the character that summons it, and also possible to add a new party member for the duration of the fight/spell if the party is restricted to 3 members all the time (this is obviously less ideal). I think he meant Final Fantasy 7-style summons (they appear, deal damage, dissapear, like a long, animated spell).

Why aren't my classes on that list..?
Whoops! I liked the Garou.

Also, I agreed with Max in saying that the Enchanter is really an Evoker (or something along those lines).

I am debating the power of CLEANSE -- is it too strong? It is basically a Remedy spell for the entire party that costs no MP and is guaranteed to work. To nerf it a bit, I was considering making it remove ALL status effects, good or bad. Thoughts?

I guess I see what Max means. If the semantics are so important...

Enchanter (Mk. II)
I guess the other problem with this is that it isn't really feasible to do this in Rm2k3...

To be able to do this, we would need to have a fire, ice, lightning, poison, dark, heavy fire, heavy ice, heavy lightning, silence, fire/ice/lightning, ultima version of every single weapon in the game, so that I would be able to programmatically switch weapons in battle to the Enchanted item.

What I liked about the Evoker is, I only need ONE fire, ice, lightning ...etc... weapon that the Evoker "evokes" - that is, I unequip the Evoker's weapon, and then equip the ICEBLADE. After battle, I unequip evoked items and reequip the original weapon. Much more possible.
