NWN2: Base classes

Post by TheCrazyGoblin »

Warlocks have been confirmed as a base class for NWN2.

So will ALFA use all base classes that come as standard with NWN2?

That could mean:

Favored Souls, Spellthieves, Vampire Spawn, Warmages, Ninjas, Swashbucklers, Warlocks, Hexblades, Scouts, Shugenjas, Samurai, Monks, Paladins, Rangers, Druids, Sorcerers, Bards, Barbarians, Clerics,, Wizards, Rogues, Fighters, amongst others.
Sabbatical: Legnar Gloomshield, Thuldor of Laduguer
KIA: Nalak Darkstalker, Caver of Tuin'T Luthol.

My guess is that one or more may be unbalanced. If so, we'll either need to nerf or remove those. Short of that, I can't see removing content BW provides.

Yes....ever played a vampiric penguin? :twisted:

(Actually, the transformations and day/night effects could be rather fun with a vampire class)

I will be a drow witch. Oh yes, I will be.









And then I'll be a ninja, and a vampire spawn and a swashbuckler, so I WILL be a vampiric drow ninja pirate sith queen!

She isn't a drow in real life. The rest applies.

But the game will include PrCs out of the box, so it stands to reason there would be one or two PrCs that each class can take, and i just dont see any of the current PrCs fitting for a warlock.

Whether we even allow warlocks will depend entirely on how they are done, and we wont know that until after the game is released.

This was a base class discussion so I didn't bring up PrCs.

As for Warlock PrCs, I don't think it really needs one, though it would make a nice fighter/warlock/blackguard class.

Or even Paladin/Warlock would be pretty nice combination

i seem to recall reading somewhere they are making a unique prc for nwn2, most likely for the warlock class.

Paladin warlock can't happen, they have to be either Chaotic or Evil.
