Since a large portion of my ideas have been adopted by the awesome and talented independent coders for the Heroes plugin, I figured I would organize a list of my accepted, failed and new ideas mainly so the programmers and users can see what has been asked, and what is already in progress.
As well as maybe inspire new ideas.
Hopefully Heroes/Herocraft will implement some of them.
These are not full class setups, only introducing new skills and themes the class would revolve around.
I will better organize it in the near future, and update it regularly -
**(WIP)** - means someone will **probably** code this at some point or already has.
**not practical** - means it is either too difficult or unrealistic to code, like may cause epic lag or exploitable or just useless.
\\
**Travel Skills** -
**Earth Spells** -
**HP consumption Skills** - (for vampire-esque classes)
**Armor Breaking Skills**-
**Melee Skills** -
**Illusion Spells** -
**Chemist Class** - Reagent projectile based skills (what it throws, I'll leave up to you, im guessing a snowball or an egg)
**Geologist Class** - Higher tier mining class - Adds minor (%) chance of finding specific deposits when digging and/or mining for a certain duration
**Samurai Class** - Elemental melee class - Gains melee effects and buff/debuffs for set duration
**Tactician** - A master strategist, with spells that are based on certain relative conditions
**Infiltrator/Assassin** - Mainly abilities for higher tier Rogue oriented classes
**Blue Mage** - A well rounded mage, able to use light offensive and support magics as well as unique ways to inflict and redirect damage and ailments.
