What would you multiclass?

Athelas

@Alrena Yes, that's kind of the point. A "Dark-nature" thing through class. Suggestions welcome

Lothien

Lusternia has a 'dark forest' city, and while a lot of it isn't transferable at all, there may be some strands of story or thought you can draw from there.

Dochitha

Guys, there is NO multiclassing RP problems.

There is no problem with Multiclass.

No problem.

Multiclass is good.

Let's launch.

Well, every class can pull it off. Just look at how savage Sentinel combat can be, for example. Even Druids can use reclamation to that effect. It's really not something you should depend on for a class itself. I could list a series of other things, but it's really up to you to decide what you want to RP. I'm just saying, a class doesn't make your character one thing or another. It can be a tool to help shape your character, but there's no single, right way.

Agreed. And yes ... some have seen me use reclamation for exactly that dark RP.

Pull on the innate savagery of natural life and how it is presented in your class skills, yeah. Predators show their prey no mercy, so why should you?

OMW! You have no idea how relevant that really is. I've been playing that already so ... it's basically a case of: Keep calm and carry on

Skye

In order of preference:

Serp,
Shaman,
Jester.

Yes, I may actually go back to Jester.  

I actually would have liked priest too, but the restrictions make it too much not worth for me. Even though I'm plainly rogue to the core, 10/10 would get excommed in a week. 

Kyrra

I'd only ever want to go priest to deliver @Achilles into guard stacks. Demigod was way too much fun >.>

I've been thinking about multiclass since it was first brought up and there's pretty much no other class that I'd really want to play. Especially since shamans lost runelore. I started playing as a Runewarden and I've never changed class ever. Hell, I still have my original reincarnate from however long ago that was.

Checking out various other classes and cities on alts has probably ruined things for me a little bit as well. The ones that I did enjoy the flavour of, I bought artefacts for and it just seems pointless to pick up any class that I've alted. Why pick up serpent when I have one rocking level 3s? The rest I just have zero desire to ever play, or there's the restrictions with forestals and cities.

Reiloch

Wait, there are classes that aren't occultists? Since when did this happen? I clearly need to leave Fire and Spice more often.

Rangor

@athelas I'm all for dark, sinister borderline evil forestals. But if you pick up Necromancy you won't be a forestal no more.

Bluef

Definitely serpent - I'd like to upgrade my bow and maybe even get back into combat some day. The high dex requirement is a bit of a pain, but that just gives me a reason to bash up gold for credits!

Condemned for wanting to defend the thing he cares for most

Just imagine the results on the Poetry news

But we really are jumping the gun here. It's most probably never going to happen. I just really like playing his "dark-side" and this would be an interesting avenue.

The most likely thing that will happen though, is that he never does the multi-class thing, but ends up with a very visible, disliked and/or adored ability to publicly skin Mhaldorians alive, and using the skin to make decorative back-packs for his fellow Eleusians.

Okay.  I can handle the dark nature/necromancy... but eesh.  Please don't make backpacks out of Mhaldorians.  Do you want disease?  That's how you get disease.

This is roughly what the Sentinel guild/class was founded on - being the savage aggressive forest type that showed no mercy when defending the forests, whereas Druids were the more passive (if not straight pacifist) guild/class.

Silvarien

I want to multiclass as Magi, Bard, Runewarden and Megatron. I got every artefact that Megatron needs to put down rebellion by the civilized races and make everything into one big Quisalis den. Whee.

Szanthax

Since this is coming soon I bought my 300 credit no brainer credit package. Packages. I love me some package.

No need to make Mhaldorian backpacks when you can have some nice mhun backpacks instead :pleased: 

Fitz

Outcast/Occultist (please please please @Tecton, @Sarapis)

From what I remember, at least the ones I talked to when it was founded, it was omg we want cities and forest! That didn't last long, though, heh. Ended up leaving Hashan and founding Eleusis. (though they kept the allow city joining for a long time)

There was a lot less RP and serious RP back then though. Gaia approved Hashan's expansion initially, for example.

Old Occultist (outcast) is an evil/chaos class.

My initial thought to that is 'quick excom from two class skills - hope you like tarot!'

I sometimes miss eating hearts and offering essence to the Chaos Lords.....

Edit: Ultimately though, I probably won't multiclass anything. Fitz is an Occultist. (Save for that brief stint as a Jester when he and Shakti had a bit of a tiff.))

Tharvis

Maybe occultist purely with enough lessons in for astralform and soulmaster. Relive the old days of astralforming into an enemy city and soulmastering people (used to be templars!) to sing "little teapot" on their HT.

Judar

Most likely monk or Shaman. Shaman because that seems cool, but monk. Mainly so I can possess people and have them act like a total buffon.
*glares at targossian people*

Synbios

Going to finally return to my old Paladin roots! 

Achilles

serpent and paladin.  Then I can still use a lot of my arties (SoA, Lupine Bow, Longsword).  Maybe I'd add magi just for silence vibe and cata.

Dochitha

The caveat: You can only CLASS CHANGE <class> after you tri-trans them. So no, no totems, hermit, raido, phase, astral, blackwind, wormwarp, evade blah abuse.

Just sayin, don't quote me.

EDIT: Or you can only CLASS CHANGE once every IC month normally, or once an IC day with Certimene's Talisman.

Bronislav

I'd multiclass Barbarian.

So I would be Bronislav the Barbarian.

@Rangor Now I'm going to leave you in suspense, wondering wither or not it's going to happen

But this talk of dark/sinister/evil is actually not where Athelas is going. He isn't changing as much as he is accepting his demons. So it's more Balance and Great Circle of Life stuff.

He has realized himself, accepted those parts that he's been hiding all his life, but that does not make him any less gentle, kind or caring.

As I said somewhere else, it's not entirely accurate, but you can considered him the embodiment of Yin and Yang. It's still wrong, because it still separates the concepts of good and evil, but I find it makes it easier for people to understand the story.

All that aside though, if you've not known Athelas on a rather personal level, you'll likely not notice much of a difference.

Tahquil

Ya don't need.. a mother fucking class.. to be dark. Just RP being fucking dark in whatever class you got and you'll be dark. Even bard and Jester can be sinister if you RP it out well.

Imagine you're in a room. Bound, beaten, blacked out and someone whispers in your ear in a low hiss, "How do you make a handkerchief dance, Athelas?"

Mindshell

I'll likely pick up Runewarden to go with Shaman. Having a trade makes you friends, and while I can have fun pretending to be Elsa with Icefort, building a totem fort sounds even more entertaining. We'll just have to wait to see what the limitations are though.

Rispok

Magi.

Dem pearls!
