Not to rain on this idea, but I don't think it is needed. How about this, make Bounty hunters master unarmed instead of scout (maybe keep terrain negotiation). Make the current brawler (unarmed)hybrid professions (for smuggler and commando)actually use the brawler skills. No need for any new hybrid professions, simply make the ones they have more logical. By the way with all the hybrids, none of them make use of the entireskill either. Smugglers only need pistols, BH only use carbines and pistols. Combat medic doesn't use any of the ranged support skills, and Squad leader does not use any of the marksman skills either. Personally I think the developers added these extras to spend points on to try to keep people who wanted to play hybrids limited in template building.

And for those who think guns are just stupid, they single handedly changed the world order and society, how war was fought and who was the superior world power. Pretty powerful consequences for such a stupid invention eh?

FYI: for a little research project, search the internet for one of Stalins master spies (forgot the name) that was a marial art expert. He was in a cell, Stalin sent an assasin to shoot him in the cell. The assassin had to empty the clip before he could shoot him. Pretty impressive?

Bottom line a master martial artist and gunman are equally lethal, depending on the situtation.

I agree that guns are crap. They may have changed the world but for the worst. Anyways I also would love to see a new melee hybrid but the melee Bh sounds like the only good one.

Yeah, apparently he had a sense of humor. At least he didn't make it HappyBagel or CreamCheeseBagel.

I would like to see a duel-weilding assasin like from Ragnarok Online.

Probably wouldn't fit this game. But I always loved those Assasins..

I dunno about hybrid class....I just want Elite-Elite melee professions, i want fencer to evolve into dual weilder, swordsman to turn into a double bladed swordsman, and pikeman to turn into a mount specialist. Seems realistic enough to me. Tera kasi? I dunno, fists are fists. (Dual knucklers!?) I wish they'd insert Elite-Elite professions so we have less dabblers, I'd like to be able to put the majority of my SP's in one spot, with minor back up like medic.

Elite-Elite would be awesome. Duel-weilding for Fencers no-doubt.

Man, what is everyone's obsession with Dual Wielding? I think just having one sword is far more effective and practical. With two hands tied up during a fight, one slip in balance would cost you a lot, and keeping your balance, well, that'd be really hard trying to work two arm-long blades synchronized.

For an Elite Profession that comes from Master Brawler/Master Scout? How about a Bodyguard profession or something? Missions would be easy enough, at level one you go to a location where a NPC is standing, a wave of enemies spawns, and you try to stop them (or like missions already seem to happen occasionally, the fight begins when you arrive, but everything spawns at once). As you progress, more powerful and larger numbers begin to spawn. It'd have low defenses, but high attack power. One line for missions, two for weapons, and one for special abilities like trading attack power for defensive abilities and so on...

Just throwing something out there, since I am tired of everyone wanting ninjas and samurai. Leave the fruity dance-fighting to Teras Kasi Artists, Fencer's are known for elegance, grace, and finesse, not stealth or strength.

Just my two cents...

Well. One reason I would not like to see the rapiers and such...well...

Remember Ramirez from Skies of Arcadia on the Dreamcast? Wow...did I hate him or what. He was a Fencer who used the rapiers and he was just...yuck.

He just looked like...if I may say an pansy, a weakling. I did not care for his look or how he fenced.

I like our profession how it is and either profess more on it for an elite, or go for duel weilding.

If guns were never invented, then how would we defend ourselves against the murderers with guns, HUH!?!?

*Thinks*

Oh.....heh....nevermind

But if guns were never invented, you wouldn't be able to shoot at him from 20 yards

But they are, so he'd be in a pickle

And besides, guns are good for the economy. I bet the people who make bullets would be out of business if we didn't have guns.
