So I was on my tumblr tumbling and stuff when I noticed this thing where Korea mentioned about a sixth character!? :whoops:
Here's the link: (Read the bottom part) http://heroes.nexon.com/news/devstory.aspx?bn=20&no=128&mode=view
Apparently, they all want us to discuss about the sixth character and maybe give us our idea about the new character.

Ooh, that's interesting. I'm thinking maybe an assassin class.

I don't think a dedicated healing/buff based character would be viable at all in Vindi. Mainly since that's pushing the party aspect of this game, when there are a gigantic number of solo related things. Things such as solo oaths, Succubus/Shakarr, and so on. Not to mention Vindi has become such a large DPS based game that people don't really care for any other playstyle. I mean, who needs buffs when the boss dies in 5 minutes anyways?
Then the natural option is to give the healer some sort of offense. To which I want to instantly point to nearly every Evie criticism out there. Evie's support isn't even that great (~1.5k HP healed every 3 minutes and a revive every 5 minutes), and people still complain about it. It'll either be people saying how "(Character) is useless" or "(Character) is OP". It just won't fit.
Also note that Lann and Scythe Evie both have buffs (Berserk and Insane Reaper). I remember seeing some skill on DB (info from the game files) that intended Fiona to have a Defence buff as well. Trans auras also sort of apply. Buffs in general seem to be relegated to SP skills.

Nobody really thinks about this, why not a gnoll, though? It would bring a little more uniqueness to the game, as of weapons, probably maces, then axes as the second weapon, Axes are slower than the mace but are longer and do more damage.
And we've yet to see a pikeman, which would be awesome, Spears as the first weapon, halberds as the second, the halberd is longer but slower than the spear, and does less damage, the spear has about a quarter less than the halberd, is faster and does more damage, the class has a crappy dodge, but gets long range to keep a safe distance from harms way.
The loyal knight, armed with a Great sword as his first weapon, but can move onto lances as a second weapon, the slowest character in the game, has high defence, being overburned is inevitable with this character, as each greatsword or lance weighs around 200-500 stones, he has no dodging skills, but can cut down the enemies relatively easily, the lance has a charging ram, a skill which allows you to charge at the enemy, a fast attack, you have a 10 minute delay between uses, the lance is slower than the great sword, but each one has a built in shield to guard with, greatswords are high attack priority, come with no shields, or guard skills, the weapon is quite slow in terms of attacks, but high damage output.

But she already plays the role as
dps/healer/midranged/op
Her healing used to be good, but it was nerfed so she could be the overpowered mage she is.

Stealth would be a horrible system for Vind, and we dont need another combat player.
Lets face it, when you break it down. Swords Lann, Spear Lann, Sword Fiona, Hammer Fiona, Pillar Karok, Cestus Karok, and Scythe evie all play fundamentally the same.
Right click normal attack, left click smash, run in at the right moment and do some DPS, use their specific way to survive attacks. Dodging or Tanking, its all the same in the end.
Right now we have 3 Styles really, Kai, Staff Evie, and Melee.

You just lumped Pillar Karok into the rest of the characters?
Like I could agree Lann, Fiona and scythe Evie are all similar. But Pillar Karok is quite a different beast.

Why not make the 6th one a Milletiant?

The pictures are of Kai, who has already been released on the Korean server.
This topic is about the last part, which says that they're developing the 6th character now.
