Class: WarHound

The ultimate berserker.

Attack
Riastrad
Item

Riastrad applies Haste and Berserk effects to self, and causes character to be completely uncontrollable for 3-5 turns. Attacks take on an almost Dragoon-like power at about 80% the strength of Jump but have the speed of normal physical attacks.

WarHounds can wield Swords (but not KnightSwords), Spears, Axes, Hammers, and Claws. They cannot use any shields, but can wear the same armor types as a Dragoon.

Strength: Extremely high. (Best in the game by a very small margin)
Agility: High (A tiny bit less than ninjas)
Vitality: Slightly below average
Wisdom: Awful
Will: Awful

WH's would have less Mdef than Dragoons even, which is practically nonexistant for them as it is, and mediocre Pdef. Obviously, they'd have no MP. HP would be on par with Dragoon's as well.

I have a serious suggestion. XD Here it is in its first draft, so feel free to dispute over specifics if you can be bothered. Hope it's not too over/underpowered.

Alchemist (Based on the Alchemist Dressphere in FFX-2 and Chemist Job of FFV)

Skills:
-Attack
-Bomb
-Panacea
-Formula
-Item

Stats at level 1:
HP = 90
Str = 3
Agi = 2
Vit = 3
Wis = 2
Wil = 2

Can wield: Knives, Staves and Hammers
Can wear: Light and Medium armor

Skill Details

Bomb: You know what this is. This is basically here to provide the Alchemist with an offensive option, to ensure it is not entirely helpless alone with its so-so strength stat.

Panacea: The Alchemist will work some wonders with the chemicals they have at their disposal and create a recovery item of their choosing. This is intended to be stronger than the usual selection of items available, though susceptible to charge time.
-Potion: Recover 200HP for one ally.
-Hi Potion: Recover 1000HP for one ally.
-Ether: Recover 80MP for one ally.
-Salve: Recover 750HP for all allies.
-X Potion: Recover 5000HP for one ally.
-Turbo Ether: Recover 400MP for one ally.
-Mega Salve: Recover 2000HP for all allies.
-Mind Salve: Recover 160MP for all allies.

Formula: The Alchemist looks into their vast napsack and pulls out a concoction that can boost fighting capabilities, which can be provided to either one ally or shared out across them. Of course, the more that's shared out, the less likely the formulas actually grant any effects. This is basically a skewed Sing in chemical form.
-Power Drink: Cast Beserk on target/s
-Steel Drink: Cast Protect on target/s
-Psyche Drink: Cast Shell on target/s
-Speed Drink: Cast Haste on target/s
-Hero Drink: Cast Regen on target/s

My class^^:

Young Sage:

Attack = Attack an enemy
Black = Black magic
White = White magic
Forecast = same as remember
Item = Use Items

Ancient Dragoon:

Attack = Attack an enemy
Jump = Jump on an enemy
Cover = Cover an Ally
Mega Jump = lowers HP to 1 and attack all enemys very strong
Item = Use Items

If young sage plays exactly the same as a regular sage, why bother?

And the concept of Mega Jump sounds all right... could be a lifesaver if you're in a party... but it would be better if it were under a different class and named something different. Sounds like a good Black Knight or Hero-type skill if you ask me.

This is the first time i have to agree with Saro.

Also, Mega Jump sounds a bit like a "Darkness" type of move (in modern terms), Except is near-kills the user. Jumping shouldn't hurt unless it's devoured in the power of darkness.

You guys need to start posting more suggestions since Captain is close to being taken out. Here are a few things I've thought of:

* Gambler - Similar to Setzer from FF6, has an average normal attack and a skill that has a randomized effect. Can equip knives, whips, and light to medium armor.

* Geomancer - Like in FF3 and 5, has abilities that are based on terrain. Has a mediocre normal attack and a "Terrain" ability whose effect is based on where the battle is taking place. Perhaps there could be more than one effect for a certain area for variety (e.g., an offensive effect and a supportive effect). Having a geomancer in your party also negates the effects of damage floors (if there are any in this game, or if they're going to be implemented). Equips rods, staves, knives, whips, and light armor.

* Viking - Like in FF3, this is the ultimate defensive class, which is balanced out by mediocre attack power. For variety, vikings have a skill set (can't think of a good name) that enables them to use a small repertoire of lightning-elemental attack magic (a la FFTA2) and supportive abilities. Equips swords, axes, lances, and heavy armor.

Morpher , Example : Final Fantasy Tactics

Attack
Capture
Morph
Defend

Capture: This move will after pressed capture the monster and put into a transform orb since there is a vast amount of monsters in the game there should only be allowed to get certain monsters bosses not included, also you should only be allowed to capture each type of monster only once and once you use capture you may not be able use capture gain for 3 battles.

Morph: This move reacts with capture , once you capture a monster and it turns into a transform orb you will be able top use this orb and turn into the monster you capture the trick with this spell is the monsters react the same way as the engineers bombs each type of monster reacts negatively or possitively with the enemy monster. The morph tab will react the same way as the spells tab it will instead of opening a spells box a box with all the morph orbs you colelcted inside so in a way you have to instead of get spells when you grow a level you have to earn your spells.

Judge (Based on Bash from FF XII and his brother Gabranth, who makes appearance in Dissidia )

Skills:
-Attack
-Sentence
-Justice
-Burst
-Item

Stats at level 1:
HP = 120
MP = 0
Str = 3
Agi = 1
Vit = 6
Wis = 0
Wil = 0

Can wield: Swords, Great Swords and Hammers
Can wear: Medium and Heavy armor

Horrific Wisdom and Will are made up by the ability to survive very well with nice Vit and the ability to equip High-Defence Heavy Armor, has Mediocre power, and pretty bad Agility.

Sentence:
Sentence allows the Judge to inflict a random status effect on 1 enemy, with a 5-10% chance of success, not the best move to have, but has a nice touch if it hits in PvP.

Justice:
Justice is basically all skill the Judge will have, and I'll list em for you:
-Ruin: Physical attack, with damage spread over all enemies.
-Oblivion: Lowers STR, AGI, and VIT by 2 points for the rest of the battle, unleash a fully concentrated strike to eliminate one enemy ( bosses will be immune for this of course )
-Black Hole: Rubbish move, magic attack, and a powerful one on all enemies, but the low Wisdom really lowers the damage of this move.
-Purge: Purges all allies of all negative status effects
-Enlighten: Tries to haste all allies with a 30% chance of success on each ally.
-Aegis: Casts protect and shell on all allies, with a 50% chance of success on each ally.

Burst:
Burst allows the judge to go into Burst Mode: drastically up his AGI, VIT and STR stats, lasts for 2 round, and can be used once in every 5 battles, this is what might make the Judge seem overpowered =/

Anyway, this is my idea, have fun playing~

I based this message off of Athomos's.

Class Name: Assassin
Based On: Nothing

Spoiler:

Class Name: Stormcaller
Based On: Geomancer, to some extent.

Spoiler:

I'm finished...For now.

Class: Bro
Based on: being a bro

Skills:
-Attack
-Rage
-Brofist*
-Cover
-Item

Rage - costs 20% of your max MP. Dark wave that deals twice as much damage to enemies, but you take three times as much damage as normal.
Brofist - MP regen on target.
* - would prefer 'support' but i guess thats the lunar knight unique skill

Weapons - whips, knives, ninja swords (lol weeaboo)
Armor - heavy, shields

Has high def, but only moderate hp. A little more mp and wis than a paladin. only moderate str and agi.

I guess I could give this a try...

Class Name: Wanderer

Icon Appearance: Somewhat similar to the 'Hooded Man' from FFIV: The After/The After Years, but not...purple clothes. Maybe dust brown...but not purple!

Can Equip: Polearms, Swords, and Axes for weapons. (Kinda reminds me of Fire Emblem alluva sudden.)
Light Armors and Shields (Leather armor, Rings, etc.)

Base stats: (Mind you, I kind of guessed at this, but I tried to be fair with stat distribution.)
Starting HP: 80.
Starting Mp: 5.
Starting Str.: 5.
Starting Agi.: 3.
Starting Vit.: 3.
Starting Wis.: 1.
Starting Wil.: 2.

Stat Growth is certainly open to suggestion.

Assuming that Wanderer is implemented, it would be interesting to see how well ComboArts would work, I would think.

looked at biskey's moogle knight, didn't like it, so here's a more traditional one inspired from FFTA2

moogle knight
yup, the good ol' moogle knight from tactics advance. it can use knives cos, let's face it, everybody starts them off as a thief right? and swords. cos they're knights (duh). they use shields as well. also, they unique as they are the only one able to counter physical attacks ...sometimes...

apperance:a white moogle in a blue uniform top

stats
has decent attack and hp , all other stats are between average and below average except mp which is poor at best

command menu

fight
kupoarts
steal

item

abilities
kupoarts are the moogle knight's speciality which can either assist the party (with buff spells that can either target 1 person and always hit, or target the party at down to 20% hit (hit%=100/no.of party members)) or attack the enemy with powerful techniques (and an ultimate move...well, in time for core anyway...)

steal is from his time as a thief. works exactly like the ninja's abillity

after countless edits, it's finished. i think i did a nice job...

Class Name: Pirate
Based On: Arrr, piratin' in general sense, me hearties. And those pirates from FFV.

Spoiler:

I looked and didn't see it suggested.

Class: Beastmaster

Fight
Tame
Capture
Item

Tame would be a skill that allows the player to "capture" or "control" an enemy. Such as an imp. Now since making icons, and creating the AI, etc, may be a bit too much of a challenge, for one simple class, I would suggest that this skill be usable in battle only. Allowing the player to have control of him/herself while also having that monster's turn. A percentage would be used to control the monster. The coders would place what they would see fit, however I would assume that the best way to go at it, would be to make it that at 100% hp, there's a 0% chance of "Tame" working. As their hp percentage goes down, the "Tame" percentage increases. Such as 1% of their hp, would make it a 99% chance to "Tame" the monster. Of course, this ability would fail on all bosses, seeing as controlling Zeromus would be downright cheating.


The Capture ability would allow the player to store said monster for a time when he would be used in battle, actually, this skill would be a copy of FF5's Trainer. Where you're able to capture, and hold on to a monster, then release them in a later battle when they're needed. Also similar to a one time summon. If this class would ever really exist, this skill would probably not exist, but it's worth a shot.


If memory serves, there's very few axes in the game, so the main equipment choice would be similar to the Paladin's choice. Swords/Axes, Shields, Armor, etc.

Just..hear me out for a second

Name: Chaos Knight (Elder Knight was also another choice in mind if the first one didn't work)

Possible icon: Give or take somewhat resembling The After Years Golbez

Description: A knight who pledges his allegiance to no kingdom, a man which follows by his own rules and with his fighting style incorporates the sword and magic (No magic sword though *coughmagicknightcough*) and slays those who cross his path to try to stop him.

Equippable weapons: Sword (Primary), Axes, Spears (maybe/maybe not), Rods

Commands:

Attack
Black Magic
Chaos Wave

Item
Attack: Physical damage to one enemy

Black Magic: Offensive magic which can be casted onto a single/multiple targets. (May be subject to limited amount of spells.)

Chaos Wave: Similar to Dark Wave, only takes off a small percentage of MAX HP and MP

Stats: Well, I'm not really much of a number person when it comes to statistics of a character, but give or take defense and mdefense would be sacrificed to empower attack and mattack, and the character is more physical-based, so maybe focusing more on the HP/ATK than MP/Magic. So far speed is up in the air.

i wonder who's gonna delete karnage's post... *looks at andrew*

while i'm here...:

normal kid

stats: totally joe average (between good and not good for you non americans)

skills
limited white magic:think paladin, but less. like up to cure3, a life, possibly toss in a protect. 2 lines of magic is all

stonetoss: randomizes between trowing a stone at one enemy or loads at all enemies. basic attack damage

item: work it out, unless you work on brainiac

equips
swords, knives, anything but the adamant items for armor

good for a challenge

Name : Turk

Decs : As the name suggests, a turk from FF7! Looks like a normal guy in a blue tux. I can icon it later if taken serious =P

Basic stats : attack, minor white and blue(i think blue) basically minor heals, lvl 2 at max. And life 1. Protect and shell. Also for blue (or whatever color casts) haste and slow. And can use items

Weapons : any melee weapons.. maaaybe ranged depending on gm call

Armor : anything a bard can wear. As in all lighter armor. Not anything toooo protective. Don't wanna OP it

Unique : phone a friend (bwahaha or a more serious name) calls in turks to help. One time attack. Kind of like a stronger dark wave with no damage to self. Can only use when critical health. It also casts protect and shell on entire party. The animation can be whatever. Idk yet.

Stats: decent vitality, high str and agl. Low wis and will. Aka he is human. Just a human who works out alot xD

That is it for now. If taken seriously, i can put more effort into iconing and move sets haha.

Lemme know if its serious. Email is on my info page.

Kaitetsu

Seraphim Blade
Weapons: Sword, Knight Sword
Armor: Plate

Suggested:
End Stat:
HP: 8000
MP: 300
STR: 80
AGI: 70
STA: 50
WIS: 75
SPI: 60

Im basically guessing at these number's significance, as I have nothing to compare them to. Could there possibly be a place to compare actual lvl 1 - 99 stats for character classes?

If at all possible, a permenant Float and/or Resistance to Holy
Numbers to replace words soon.

Attack
White Sword
White Magic

Item

White Sword:
Resist: Cheap Protect on self only
Ward: Cheap Shell on self only
Smite: damage based on Max HP - Current HP
Prayer: Random effect from
50% HP heal (small)
10% MP heal (small)
35% Damage enemy
5% Berserk on self!
Suggestions?
Counter: Obvious. Either lasts for entire round or until its first activation.
Divine Blade: Holy damage on one enemy, Based on atk power
Grand Cross: Holy damage all enemies, magic based

White Magic:
Cure
Cure 2
Cure 3
Life
Scan
Sight
Hold
Mute
Confuse

Basically, this is a sword complement to what I've always seen as the Paladin's being kinda a shield. much more focused on power, and finishing a fight.

not bad, i'd axe cure status ailments and make restore mp rare though if you have esuna

oh, and enemies don't use stuff like poison or blind so it's useless

Epopt:
Sprite: Leonora (Final Fantasy 4 The After Years.)

Attack
Black
White
Dualcast
Item

Attacks with Staffs,Rods,Bows,Whips
Armor is mage for white and black magic.
Dualcast you are able to cast 2 black/white or 1 of each in 1 turn.
Can learn all white and black magic but learns black magic slower then other classes.

I think it would be a good idea because no ++ can use both magic aside from Hero which is still somewhat a fighter not a pure mage and the Dualcast ability wouldn't be overpowered because it cost you the mp of each spell and could be weaker then single casting if needed.

Since Captain was removed and there is a slot open this is NOT a joke suggestion it is seroius.
