So, can we get the last four heroes already?

Three heroes per human player at a time.

We've got three warriors, three necros, three rangers, three eles, three monks, three dervishes. But only two mesmers, two paragons, two ritualists, and two assassins, thus making it impossible to make triple teams based off of these professions.

So can we get those last four now?

There's no need to go to the degree of complexity that went into the M.O.X. quest, but it would be nice to see those four heroes dropped into the game somewhere. It would also be a chance to round out the racial diversity of the party, since we have Norn and Dwarf, Centaur and Asura already, but the possibility for an Awakened Paragon or a Djinn Mesmer, Tengu Assassin and Forgotten ritualist would be most intriguing, as a simple example.

But regardless, simply having those last four would greatly help, because it would mean all possible combinations of hero professions would finely be possible.

So can we have the hero roster finished?

Don't care for any big fancy quests like the M.O.X one,but a short quest that gives some back story wouldn't hurt.

I've thought for a while now it would be cool to run 3 Rits as heroes...Lots of potential!

WiK is a good chance, maybe some of new chars from random spawn in Kryta, Alari Doubleblade, Koro Sagewind...

Make sure one of those heroes is a frogman or heket and you've got my signature.

Also, there should be a 4th ele hero just to make it complete.

A third Assassin? Who the hell would even bother using an Assassin hero now anyways.

A third Ritualist? Seems like they would trip over each other if all of them are trying to cast spirits.

A third Mesmer? Just how many interrupts do you need?

A third Paragon? You don't have enough party support from two?

Maybe it would be nice to have all of the professions equally represented, but honestly, I don't see triples of these other professions being terribly useful. Maybe terrible at being useful.

Variety is the spice of life. Not everyone likes having to choose between an angsty teenager and a fat, spandex-clad gourmand.

I really like the idea of a female ele, there's male/females of all jobs except eles. But having the other four would be even better. I think they could definitely incorporate and add four more hereos with the War of Kryta storyline.

Why would you want a frogman? every time someone aggroes he'd just raise his white flag and run away.

We don't NEED more heroes, but I wouldn't mind having the extras just to give more options. Either way, I'm ok with it, but I don't see any point in having a Margonite as a hero since they are enemies in every form. Only one is an ally and that is a limited quest line. Tengu hero would be nice since we have a tengu hench, Forgotten hero would be nice as they play a significant role in Prophecies and Nightfall both, a Shining Blade hero would be a nice story aspect for the WiK content, and they could possibly fit in a White Mantle hero of some sort to play on that aspect of the WiK stuff.

I personally would rather have an Oni than a Tengu since we already have the ability to use Talon.

With the WiK going on, it's the best time to add in a White Mantle hero. The quest storyline could be that the hero is a traitor or sick of the ways of the White Mantle or something like that. It'll benefit from all the updates of WiK that is going right now. Afterall, we do have 2 Shining Blade heroes. It's time for a White Mantle hero.

I agree (except for the Rit), but it's not necessarily using them all at once is what would interest me. It's getting these hero professions from locations other than the places we do now. Even if you are only going to use 2 Rit heroes, do you really want to have to go through the entire of NF to get one? Besides, as other people have mentioned, WiK is a good opportunity to get some new heroes in (White Mantle heroes is a bad idea though).

I can agree with fleshing out the heros, three of each would be nice (in some ways). So I will sign that.
But what we really need is a way to organize the party (P) screen's hero tab so we don't have to scroll down the list of them.

I dont think the point is to have a more useful party. The point is for more variety both in the choice of heroes for any given profession and for the choice to use three heroes of a given profession regardless of usefullness. would have fun running a team with 3 mesmer heroes in addition to myself and the mesmer henchie .

interesting idea. i wouldnt mind filling out the 4 that only have 2, if they use those 4 with possible races or characters that are storylined tied to the events leading to GW2. although i wouldnt mind a Mursaat Mesmer. the Oni is a good choice for the Assassin. the Rit, hmm so many options to choose from but how about a Gaki or Naga. as for a paragon, a margonite might be interesting. either way ill make the the 7 hero pitch again. what use is more heros unless Anet is going to finally lift the hero cap.

1. Agreed.

2. They can do other things than spirits too :P

3. See above.

4. Paragons strength in numbers only stacks.

Other then that, consistency would be nice, yes.

I don't know how anet will pull off the fillers for the four professions, and honestly I doubt they'll want to bother with them. Got to remain hopeful, though. Right?

Funny, but people always assume I /unsign everything. I have signed several things. Problem is that I am happy with the game, and see no reason to put some of the stupid suggestions through, even when they aren't 'bad'. But most ideas posted here are not worth putting in the garbage, they should have the person suggesting them go back to elementary school and learn how to learn. Look a little harder, you will find things I supported or at least was 'ok' with. It won't be much, cause as I said, most stuff posted here is utter tripe.

I don't think we need more from those professions, but as diversity is always nice (so you can have a diff build each instead of switching them on the same one)...

/signed

Oh and please, we have enough ex-mantles as heroes, put something different. I like the races proposed in the original post, although you could not get prestige armour for a djinn.
Also a fourth ele would be nice since you have four elements...
