A pretty simple question. If we had heros from the very beginning, what race/affiliation and profession would you like to have had?

a couple rules for the thread hopefully.

If you dont like heros, then dont just post somehting saying *None i ate hero's*

don't worry about evening out professions, like adding a 3rd mesmer or a 3rd ritualist since we only have 2. This is about what you would have wanted for prophecies and Factions.

I think its ok to suggest nf/factions professions for these if you really want to, but my suggestions are going to be loyal to w/e campaign they are in. Proph = core classes, factions = core + Assassin and RT of course.

Alright have at it! you could even make a little backstory for your hero if you wanted.

For me
Proph hero's are
Olias. I know he already exists, but he would have been a fitting hero if they had them all the time, so im going to keep him in my list.

Deldrimor Dwarf warrior. I always liked the dwarves and I was hoping oggy would be a warrior, but, i was wrong.

shining blade ranger. I don't think the shining blade got enough attention personally. At least during my gameplay, most of it was focused around white mantle (before maguuma and after) ascalon, and dwarves. most players skip maguuma where most of the shining blade things rest also

ancient seer Mesmer. I think around S shiverpeaks after you finish the mission where you get infused, it woulda been cool to have the seer join you instead of just modding ur armor. Also strikes me as a mesmer for some reason.

Ascalonian monk. We all hate alesia in one form or another. Another choice form the beginning besides urself woulda been nice.

Factions

Tengu assassin. I think it woulda fit in nicely with the already non human henchman. Talon silverwing made bringing henchman more interesting since he was the first other species to party with you.

Kurzick rit/ele/ranger and luxon warrior necro and mesmer. I think most of the heros revolving around the two factions woulda been cool, considering the name of the game is factions.

So what would you have wanted if heros were always in the game?

Also sry for spelling. Rather messy tonight.

Old Mac+Joe (Ranger - Joe only shows when bringing Charm Animal, an auto pet) - In Northern Shiverpeaks *Completion of The Frost Gate + Hungry Devourer*
Olias - or some other White Mantle Necromancer who turns with us (Necromancer) - In Kryta *completion of D'Alessio Seaboard*
Shining Blade Monk (Evennia?) - Maguuma Jungle *completion of Bloodstone Fen*
Forgotten (Mesmer) - completion of Forgotten Wisdom
Seer (Elementalist) - Completion of Iron Mines

Core:
Devona
Aiden
Mhenlo
Cynn
Eve


Factions:
Panaku (Assassin)
Talon (Warrior)
Professor Gai (Ritualist)
Jamei (Monk)
Zho (Ranger)
Argo (Elementalist) - Luxon storyline
Seaguard Hala/Erys Vasburg(Mesmer) - mutually exclusive
Brutus/Sheena (Necromancer) - Kurzick storyline - mutually exclusive

I'm going to try and distinguish between hench that already exist and "heroes that might have been".

Prophecies - that pretty mesmer lady from the artwork add the nice male warrior from the art too and the ranger girl

Factions - a tengu, an Am Fah defector, Ke Feng in his Jade Brotherhood disguise, some luxon and kurzick people.

Probably would have liked to see a tengu, the lore nerds would probably have something to say but having a naga/kappa/mursaat would be kewl.

If heros exist from the very first day, then I would make henchmen not too distinguishable, less likable but not in the sense that they have crappy build.

this way, you can put in more "twist in your story/mission/quests", for instant if you bring the wrong henchmen, they turn on you "muahahaha" but not with the henchmen that we already have.

with that said, i think those henchmen that has been with me from the very beginning feels kinda like heros already. So them and maybe a couple more like op says, a seers, some caves trolls, a couple of dwarfs that sells dynamite who follow you around and a couple of those Dolyaks will be most welcome!

I still feel that they should just offer us all the hench for purchase as heroes in the in-game store. Possibly add a new quest for each hench - and up the number of heroes to full party.
Some $7.99 per chapter.

Ohh and Cynn would probably become a staple of my parties!
Because we all go a little mad sometimes!

The forgotten are pretty cool, and definitely could have been worked further into the story.

I agree. A Forgotten hero would be awesome. Unlocking Sariss Yassith after doing both 15 attribute quests or something like that.

Wish you could use your mini pets as heroes, that would take them off the pretty useless scale and make the game so funny.

What about a Kournan (can't remember if they are called priests or monks) those guys are superhealers on HM, one of them in your party, you'd never lose lol (Oops, NF, wrong campaign)

Kiiilrooy for a hero, he would aggro everything on the map and make all the monsters so happy lol

Prophecies isn't interesting enough to me to make me think of obscure heroes for it, although I'd love one of those White Mantle Ritualist necromancers.

As for factions heroes:
Soar Honorclaw, the warrior leader of Aerie. Her story would have evolved nicely, I think.
Twins Chiyo and Emi. Ritualist and assassin.
A young, orphaned Yeti necromancer with a reckless personality.
A Kurzick monk; Redemptor Karl, anyone?
A House Brauer mesmer eager to put her House on the top.
A male Outcast ranger seeking redemption.
An Elementalist from the Turtle Clan.

I would have liked:

Factions:
-Tengu Ritualist
-Kurzick Monk
-Luxon Ele

Proph:
-Mursaat Necro

That's all I can think of at the moment. Also, some of the people that replied to this don't seem to know how to read, lol.

I think there are 4 more heroes still to be inserted to give the full compliment of 30. 3 of each profession. A tengu paragon, a froggy ritualist, another mursaat mesmer and a shirokin assassin would be quite cool and totally excessive.

I would like a siege turtle and a juggernaut as henchmen. Collision and image blocking be damned!

Very cool. I noticed some of you chose to pick current henchman that could be possible hero's. Very interesting Idea. If that was so, I would bring seaguard hayla (i forget exactly her name, the luxon mesmer that loves argo) all the time. Then I could bring Alesia, dump her healing touch, and give her a worthy build....and she would still fail lol.

If we are talking about odd NPC's as heroes, I'd want Ellie Rigby as a monk. Then I could lol all the time because my wife starts humming the song every time she sees her.

If we'd had heroes in Prophecies, we'd have gotten Mhenlo's band for sure.

Also, I'd like Seaguards Gita and Hala as heroes.
