Constructive!


 To take full advantage of our skill tree, we must have the appropriate primary. Swords, though useful, are limited by requirements of the skill tree. Do you think if our skill trees were expanded with "sword only" skills, could it open possibilities of new build-types, and variety of play? Would you enjoy it this if it were expanded or do you feel it is comfortable as it is?

Just added...

Some weeks ago, I posted a thought about new primaries. Though this older thread was more expanded in possible class primaries, it truly could expand the skill tree to a skill map.

We currently have so many weapon types grouped into 4 categories, if one just ponders how this could open the game beyond the basics of all class skills.

I wouldn't think so, as the sword is unique being that all classes can use it which is the reason I think it doesn't have its own separate skills.

Think you miss worded your sentence a bit, but I get your point.

Sword only skills would be nice but that would mean we can no longer use a whole skill tree.

 I was adjusting the text as these reply lines were written. Hopefully it makes, a bit, more sense. :)

Anything to open up more skills would be a good thing Jzaanu as it would allow more creativity.

I've always thought a class like mercenary without hybrid called like energy knight or sword master that features the sword for its skills and focused purely on offense would be a good update. But due to it being a pretty out there suggestion, I don't really see it happening.

They are already working on 3 new skills so I doubt they will even consider more new skills.

New class?

My idea:

Dark Lancer Class (physical main)
Soul Lancer Class (energy main
Sword only moves

The obivous choice for a new class would be a ranger/archer, it makes the most sense.

Inconceivable!


 The current problem with making any skills Sword Only is that the current model takes into consideration that using a sword limits your options in terms of skills. So swords trade flexibility for raw power, either in terms of extra stats, extra damage, or lowered requirements (or a combination of these things) compared to the class-specific primaries.

Right now not every class is limited in the same way, but in the future, the skill trees may be adjusted so that limitation equally effects every class. If Sword Only skills were made available that would take away some of that limitation that swords innately have. It's still possible, but sword skills would have to take into account that swords will be generally stronger than other primaries, which basically means that sword only skills would have to be weaker than their non-Sword counterparts.

Remember back in the days Titan hinted swords may be used as another secondary? I still want that idea to be looked at seriously, because it could offer brand new strategies.

A sword is a universal weapon. Although some "sword only" skills would be nice, that would ruin the all-around feel they have.

Would a sword based class be possible?
