I heard rumors of a duel class system coming up in a later patch. Is this true or am I misinformed?

    It might be a good idea but it's hard as hell to balance this. Imagine a sin/archer cross that would allow sins to get bow mastery and dagger mastery ~_~

    It wouldn't be THAT bad if we only get one skill tree per secondary class, or maybe get new classes specifically designed to be secondary. But full-on 2 classes per character? Naaah.

    Why make it a dual class, everyone is just going to pick assassin if they're not already one.

    Stealth for everyone. :P

    Exactly this is why i don't see it happening.

    Although the idea is interesting and might be great if they execute it well. If a secundary class would come out, i doubt you'd have access to all it's skills. And i really doubt that classes would be able to use other classes weapons.

    Probably more like, for example for my mystic, choosing cleric as secundary i'd have better supportive abilities, but if i'd pick psychic i'd have more DD ability. A sin could perhaps pick up a bow and use some bow skills, and a bm might able able to swing his sword with seeker spells etc.

    I'd pick psychic as a secondary because lets be honest with high refines everything is going to get sealed a lot when they hit you... + it adds a bunch of AOE skills. Stealth is just blah... other than that there isn't much going for the sin.

    There already is a system where you can duel other classes.
    Duels are super serious.

    ^Yes, dual. It probably wont be the "trans-character" things people have speculated about so far on the thread. Probably more like HP barb & APS barb on the same kitty. Or healer and metal mage on the same cleric, as had been done in another MMO years ago. You will need to carry extra gears to turn your healer into a tank for example.

    Im just guessing, but it seems more realistic than a stealthing barb assassin, lol.

    It could help people have more characters on one account, but they will probably need another 'super duper' inventory stone added to the game or another tab spot to make room for the extra gears the one character needs to carry on them.

    People who have already bothered to make both sides of one character seperately will probably not be excited about it.

    It might make PK more interesting, as you now carry more items to drop. It wont be effective for PK or PvE, as you wont really have the time to change out say half of your gears in the middle of PKing someone or in the heat of taking down a boss in an instance. You might find the time in TW though, I dont know.

    I was just reading that another MMO that I used to play many a long year ago was reworking their entire "combat triangle" system so everyone and everything would be basicly equal.

    I hate to be a 'Negative Nelly', but this kind of thing seems to signal a REAL beginning of the end for a game. There is no point in a cleric taking the time and trouble to roll a Wiz, and buying it a complete set of R9+12 for that Wiz, when all you need to do is get a few pieces to bring your healers gear up to par to DD.

    Will be interesting to see something 'official' about the idea.

    Duel class system for PWI (or any MMORPG game in general) is a 100% BAD IDEA. Look at final fantasy tactics / tactics advance and wild arms XF or any game that have duel class system. Those games are super easy because you can pick two of the same classes and literally be undefeated in PVE and there is no PVP in those games.

    The PWI classes already kind of have a duel class system from their skills (IE bleed, p.def debuff, bramble) too much of the same thing... The same debuffs gets overwritten already. It was a fail implement of the developers to do such thing. Most of the skills on each class is NOT unique.

    Just imagine a veno with Invoke and bramble hood... Or Myraid sword stance to reduce physical attack PERMANENTLY.
    WTB PWI 2008 where people were thinking more about doing good rather than pretending to be.

    If they put dual system in game, it will be one of the biggest fails in PWI history.

    Being able to pick and choose one skill from another class that you want = yes please.

    Being able to have psychic assassins, psy wizards, seeker blademasters, and tiger assassins = LOL.


    Also I'm real sorry to quote an entire post D:

    I would buy more gears and special super duper inventory/character expansion stones if it ment I could combine skills a little =3.

    By "fixing" Magic shell they also broke it. Since there is only 1 shared Magical buff, it makes using some apothecary completely useless now. (Dew of Star Protection for example. will override it and then you have no mdef buff.) And ironically the Archers Blazing Arrow still can't be overbuffed by itself. They need to add a bonus mdef buff like they do with Pdef (Vanguard vs Bell vs Bonus from demon bell vanguard/ stream etc)

    @OP this is but a rumor and if they mixed classes this game would become so broken it wouldn't be worth playing anymore.
