. . . Welcome to the "New Class(es)" Feedback thread. With the announcement of the Scourge Warlock as the next playable Class in Neverwinter, to be released with Module 4: Tyranny of Dragons, it's time to refresh the thread! Check out the newly renamed The "Scourge Warlock" Feeback/Hype Thread! for discussions and hype pertaining to the Scourge Warlock release.
. . . Now.. on with the poll! Please vote for your most preferred class that you'd like to see next added to Neverwinter in the poll above and feel free to discuss new classes below. Thanks!
. . . Note: I only added Classes found in the Players Handbooks, Neverwinter Campaign Setting, and Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting (all 4e). I did not add classes from the Supplements nor Hybrid Classes, as there are only 10 choices allowed in a poll. Not even all the Core Classes could fit in this poll, which I listed under "Other."
. . . Also, if you're interested in discussing upcoming Races, check out The "New Race(s) Feedback" Thread, now will a poll too!

Personally, id like to see something a bit more exotic like Swordmage or Warlord. But I don't expect those to be on the table anytime soon. At the rate classes are being released it could be years.
I'm not up to date on what another healer would be though? shaman, bard or druid? AD&D has just changed too much, was told druids can't heal anymore.
and also the featured satirical comedic adventure "A Call for Heroes".

4E healer classes would be Shaman, Bard, and Warlord. Druid is considered a controller class. I expect a druid here would be able to heal a group in a supplemental fashion. In a similar way a Paladin might.

We need paladins asap. Make it the next class.

On top of this, there is only one type of support healer in the game. We have 2 tanks (GF, GWF), 3 ranged Dps (HR, SW, CW)**, 3 Melee DPS (TR, HR, GWF) and only one healer/ support (DC). Including paladins as the next class would place them in the best situation for class type balance. Paladins can be made into a support debuffer/ buffer class (via auras), tank (plate wearing) and a support healer (lay on hands and access to cleric spells). There is so much versatility and potential to place them in the game that I really hope they take advantage of it.
Next to druids, Paladins are one of the ultimate party oriented classes as they can add a tremendous amount of synergy to a group (P&P) in just about any build. It's something that is desperately needed in the game and it would be a prime class to use as a focal point to push party play seriously. Just think of it, a plate wearing support class that can stand in the thick of battle while providing aura buffs and lay on hands while holding the Holy Avenger. (drools)
** 4 ranged dps if you count a DPS specced DC, which I don't think anyone would consider.
Also, darn well better buff the cleric up if they release a actual healing class at some point, as us healers from other games would dump that piece of garbage as quick as possible if a true burst healer, with group dynamics shows up..
I want to stare at green bars again! darn people making me pay attention to other junk, thats what alts are for.
I want to turn disaster into success with green floaty #s! With instant decisions that make you tremble and your fingers ache. I want a true healer..
Paladins I personally hate because everyone else in other MMO have done them so, so wrong, they are always way over OP or EZ mode, every other MMO that intros them to PVP makes them the automatic hands down new rank dominator. They always have some dumb god mode were nobody else can scratch them, yet they still get to dish it out while they are immune. If they must bring one in they need to make them fail somehow, maybe make them totally weak to the classes that get the shaft in dungeon invites/pvp. Maybe make the other heal class (DC) be able to cleans their god mode or something, or make so kind of mobs put the hurt on palis so they don't always get the heal slot in a group.

Otherwise, Monk or Druid. Both very unique classes that would offer some curious spins on combat.

This time I picked shaman because I think both the 'leader' role and the 'from the wilds' countenance are under-represented. (I know ranger and druid are 'from the wild,' but they are both special cases.. druids disdaining the company of all, and rangers also typically being loners.. a shaman is basically a tribal-leader type, I think.)
Edit- I may have the wrong idea about shamans, but I picture a sort of druidic warrior-priest. Basically a decent but not dazzling fighter with some buffs/debuffs, lesser healing, and maybe some minor summoning.

I'd still make one, but cyptic would likely nerf it until it was unplayable.

Very true, but I have always loved playing druids. If I could vote twice Druid and Paladin would be it. If they could both be implemented around the same time it would be great
They seriously would have to do a shape shifting druid. It is a unique option, and adds great flavor and diversity to the line up. Controller druid? Boooooring.
