Any guess? This isn't a want list but more of what do you actually think it will be. I came up with this tread because I was playing through Tyria and there were Mantle Ritualists (which were actually Necromancers) So I was looking around Elona.. and noticed Corsair Berkeser which makes me think that Guild Wars are or were at least considering that as a new profession.

Well, since we've gotten two new melee professions (Assassin and Dervish) and two new support professions (Paragon and Ritualist), I think at least one of the new professions in the next chapter will be an offensive caster of some type.

I honestly think that next chapter will be 1 Melee and 1 caster.

In my guess, the melee will be dual wielding swords and axes and oh like barbarian/berseker ^^

And the caster... I dont know, Seraphim from Sacred(Game)? Or Shapeshifting ? i dont know.

I'm gonna go with the above poster and hope for no new professions. I think we have a lot already and if they release a huge content chapter, I'd think that'd be just as good.

Maybe a new race? But if there are no new professions then should the new chapter have the ability to create a paragon/dervish/ritualist/assassin?

If they continue the trend, there will be one semi-useless novelty melee profession and a jack-of-all-trades novelty profession that specializes in something.

I have no idea why you people don't want any new professions...
I mean, Guild Wars is MEANT to get more versatile with each chapter, with new professions being the main metagame shifter, since it's basically PvP that's most important (but of course, PvE will never be left out).

And IF they'll add a new race, it should be restricted to the 2 new professions from that chapter, or else you won't be able to keep apart a human mesmer from some beast-like 'Barbarian' (or whatever it will be) that might have some purple/pink-ish looks.

I'd still like to be able to recognize a foe on my screen without having to hover my mouse over him/her to check what profession it would be.

I do find the Assassin hexes to be quite useful though. And the 2nd proffession specializing in something, being one thing -> ritualists with their DPS negation, and paragons with their buffs. Dervish in general seem quite useless, or on par with warriors.

I'm not too interested in new classes either. Some new skills would be nice, but more importantly skill balance in the next chapter please.

An animal shapeshifter is all I want. Diablo 2 had an assassin. Gw has an assassin.

I hope there are no new professions and similarly no free character slots.

However in place of that they use the space that'd otherwise be used for the two character slots to boost our stash up to 100 slots.

I don't care for the idea of more professions.

Some kind of Summoner and a Shapeshifter. Every other class i can think of is in the game. And we have plenty of useless melee characters by now. They are basically all like warriors only worse. So i think its time for some caster action.

Work on creating a great game with no new proffesions... also take a good long look at all the current skills and make some nice buff's and a few nerfs here and there.

Perhaps even expansion of class lines... adding new a new attribute line to some classes.

I too hope for no new classes. What the could do is tweak some of the the current classes, As "Chicks Boy" said, Why not give warrriors dual wielding capability?
