Monk>Ninja>Grandmaster
Necromancer>Death Mage>Diabolist
Sorceror>Enchanter>Warlock
Knight>Cavalier>Champion
Bandit>Thief>Brigand
Barbarian>Berserker>Savage
Paladin>Guardian>Templar
Acolyte>Cleric>Priest (acolyte is more like an altar boy so I put it under cleric)
Bard>Minstrel>Troubadour
Druid>Elder Druid>Magus
Assassin>Slayer>Cutthroat (maybe executioner?)
Ranger>Stalker>Hunter

I like these. I altered and added a few of my own to supplement some of your more issued ones. :mrgreen:

I don't think that Warlock fits with Sorc/Chanter over Necro since Warlocks are usually practitioners of dark/death/etc magic.

Grandmaster is perfect for Monk. 100% on that.

Necromancer should either be Lich or Warlock. Warlock does not work for sorcs. As stated, they study in primarily dark magic, a sorceror can go either way. So far the simple 'Grand Enchanter' is the only thing I like, but I'm sure there is something else if need be.

Crusader might work better then Templar. Still don't like the Assassin one though :P Executioner sounds better but I still don't really dig that. Maybe need to brainstorm more on that one.

I know this is because of kaos, but having cleric and thief level 25'ers really bothers me. I think it would bother other people too, even though it's not Kaos. Another option might be simply get rid of the name all together and use something new. We DON'T have to use thief for example if it doesn't fit.

Magus doesn't work for Druid, they use swords from what I know and I might be wrong on this but they are roamers and not really nature lovers. I saw it on the synomoms and I wonder if you got it there, but they also added goofy ones like sorc and wizard to that list. I think Archdruid or Hierophant is the best and is actually part of the druid line. I believe Hierophant is the highest ranking of one.


random throwout of names

Thief: Smugger, Spy, Swashbuckler, Thug, Mastermind, Shadowfoot
Sorc: Wizard,Warmage
Priest: Warpriest

I'm not sure about Grandmaster coming after Ninja. A ninja isn't a master of some specific martial art or something. If we wanted to do that it would be better to change it like so:

Monk => Martial Artist/Master => Grandmaster
Assassin => Slayer =>Ninja

Since this is not RoK, things can make more sense. A ninja is a master of deceit and killing. It would fit in perfectly here, while not so much with the monk.

Monk>Master>Grandmaster
Necromancer>Death Mage>Lich
Sorceror>Enchanter>Archmage
Knight>Cavalier>Champion
Thief>Footpad or Cutpurse>Brigand
Barbarian>Berserker>Savage or Warlord or Chieftan
Paladin>Guardian>Templar
Acolyte>Cleric>Priest (agreed with Thoth on the acolyte thing) or Cleric/Priest/Bishop
Bard>Minstrel>Troubadour
Druid>Elder Druid>Ancient Druid (really couldnt think of anything better, maybe switch elder and ancient).
Assassin>Slayer>Ninja (agreed with Zilveari on the ninja thing) or Assassin>Ninja>Slayer (I did like the sound of Executioner though that Thoth mentioned)
Hunter>Ranger>Stalker or Ranger>Stalker>Predator

I am using others ideas, but with my own re-adjusting/editing.
Anyone ever play Wizardry? check out their level names for their classes...

I think Monk>Sensai>Grandmaster is a good idea.
Executioner is alright I suppose for assassins. Slayer to Ninja doesn't make sense to me. They are different things much like Ninjas and monks are. Closer then those, but still different :P

For Thieves, what about Trickster? Heard that one before too.. :P

Like em all apart from ArchLich, to me its a step up from Lich, but there is no Lich to step up from. So id stick with Lich, then Arch Lich if there is a step up after Lich.

Also like Trickster... Thief>Brigand>Trickster? Or Thief>Cutpurse>Trickster, Brigand may be too combatative (just like my Footpad one tbh)?

Ill be sad to see Ninja go though... NEW CLASS NEEDS TO BE IMPLEMENTED!!!

***Had a re-think, I dont think Hierophant fits :p
