I found in the artbook page 50-51 this art of a guy and these animals that get larger and larger. And at first I was wondering about it and though it was just diffrent animals but its not its a shape shifter that man changed into a small mammal then it got bigger and finished off being a giant mammal now I dont know what you think but i bet money one proffesion in gw4 is a shape shifter

I don't mean to bash you or anything, but I don't think this is technically "Lore". I think this should be relocated, personally.

It's not a bad idea...something like a Druid or somesuch...who knows?

Or what about the white mantle clues? White Mantle had Ritualists (Factions!) and they sometimes dropped White Scythes (Nightfall!).

Or maybe that is just pure discreativity from anet. Just like the things in page 50-51 look like Tusked Howlers with some aboriginal standing next to it.

C'mon did you know u could have predicted WWI, WWII, 9-11 and god knows what more, if you read the bible in a certain way?

Yes, but the ritualist were actually Necromancers. Maybe they WON'T add in a new profession with chapter 4 :grasp: That'd be awesome! not another ladder season of nothing but rebalancing! BTW, they said they would not add in professions with every chapter

My take on it is tht races will more likely be introduce in chapter 4, for eg, the tengu and dwarves..We already have 10 profs, i seriously doubt tht they will introduce new ones.But who knows ,surprise me ANet...a better and improved game interface will be even greater.......oh,maybe thts guildwars 2?

no plz. no race. race would ruin guildwars. i think GW 4 should focus on having an HUGE map and storyline. no more class, you can take any proffession you want as long as they're unlocked. (sin and rit if you own faction, dervish and para is you own NF + the core prof.)

What playable races are there in Guild Wars?

In the first chapter you play characters from the human race. In subsequent chapters of Guild Wars, you may be able to play members of other races.

I just had to say, that this game is already enough like Diablo 2. A Shifter class would just further make the games seem the same.

Assasin..Both have them as duel wielders
Warriors..Barbarians in Ds have weapon speciality as skills
Elementalist..Sorceress...fire, ice, lightnig
Necro...D2's necros have curses and mm
Rangers..amazon

The D2 druid has earth spells and pet skills and SHAPESHIFTING
Having a shapeshifter in GW would make them the same exact game!

There arn't monks in D2 though

Druid isnt a bad idea. There probably is a possiblity of new races, but I recall that ANET specifically didnt want to have new races because of any "racial connotations" stuff that would result of it. Even though wammos/nukers/smite monks have their own hate to them.

Plus.. with races they would have to make humans/tengu/dwarves have perks associated with them. This would cause a lot of chaos in the GW world (people going nuts cause they have to make a new race to match its specialty in a profession).

I think a Druid is your best bet at something new in GW

They did come from Blizzard after all. You can say that about a lot of games.
Druids wont be possible as Rangers are already considered Druids.... Druid Armor anyone?

Too bad, the Assassin class is basically the Ninja.

No -.-

Or it can have little to do with Chap 1, 2, and 3 like Anet said.

how about a totally different class that can use skills that make you weild different types of weapons like going from melee to ranged. Or how about a gun weilder
