i said this in arthub, but if the same effort was put into these name changes like how warden was changed to oracle (makes sense given the setting, oracles were a thing in greek myth, literally given powers from gods aka given spirit weapons), then the change would cause so much less complains

naming class like “strong warrior” really just seems lazy and makes no sense because imagine if argos was a “strong warrior” than a “warlord”, it just doesn’t sound as good

If vetex used some fancy Greek words or something I think it could be fire

tbf, i do see where vetex is coming from

“warlord”, for example, has nothing to do with being good at both using weapons and martial arts. Its definition is more akin to that of a leader who holds power over portions of land.

Bro I saw the new names on a wiki screenshot in media chat and genuinely thought it was a shitpost

Dude, it’s too late for the arguments against him. He has already portrayed you all as the raging beast and himself as the calm, collected, and yet wise primate. Argue all you wish you shall only further prove his point

because the feature still has ties to infamy???

I don’t see this on the Trello

Well at least we won’t have sitiations where new players don’t have a goddamn idea what a build does, but indeed, the ancient names were cooler

Cause it got reverted just like Kill-death-ratio

a new player seeing “strong warrior” would be just as confused

Bruh

I know the solution for class naming

Savant - Vitality Magic Strength Weapons
Berserker - Stregnth
Warlord - Strength Weapons
Warrior - Weapons
Knight - Vitality Weapons
Conjurer - Magic Weapons
Warlock - Magic Strength
Mage - Magic
Paladin - Vitality Magic
Oracle - Vitality
Juggernaut - VItality Strength

Names that will stay: Oracle, Warrior, Mage, Savant
Names that kind of make sense: Paladin, Knight (ordained by their gods)

Criteria:
Has to make sense
Has to be one word or rolls off the tongue easily (Strong Warrior, really)

Berserker will be Pugulist. Its another word for martial artist but it is mostly described for boxers.

Okay if we are NOT joking.
I have this concept in mind, called imbue-dominacy, basicly how much one route can get imbues.

  • Vitality and Magic - 1
  • Strength - 2
  • Weapons - 3

So how about we use this system? But we change imbues with prefixes of hybird.

  • Vitality - Spirit X
  • Strength- Strong X
  • Magic - Magic/Magical X
  • Weapons - Weapon X

And with that here’s my ideas:

Vitality Magic Strength Weapons
Vitality Oracle Spirit Mage Spirit Fighter Spirit Warrior
Magic Magic Oracle Mage Magic Fighter Magic Warrior
Strength Fighting Oracle Fighting Mage Fighter Fighting Warrior
Weapons Weapon Oracle Weapon Mage Weapon Fighter Warrior

There are some reapeating stuff, but its because we are using different prefixes.

Maybe, if vetex is extra feely when he will code. The order of class and prefix would be determin by how much investment you put.

  • 60/40 magic/vitality will give you Spirit Mage.
  • 60/40 vitality/magic will give you Magic Oracle

I still think this sounds REALLY good

Oracle- (Stays)
Mage- (Stays)
Warrior- (Stays)
Berserker- Brawler
Paladin- Spirit Mage
Juggernaut- Monk
Knight- Paladin
Conjurer- Sorcerer
Warlord- Gladiator
Warlock- Battlemage
Savant- Polymath (Maybe???)

Juggernaut will be Monk. Inspiration is from Shaolin monks, though they use weapons. Also partly from DnD because they primarily use unarmed combat.

stop cooking please :sob:
