A New Nomad Promotion

[Tamaya]

While looking through the class promotion guide Gabriel created, I noticed an interesting pattern. Most weapon combinations are accounted for by creation of varying classes, but not so with the Nomad promotions.

There is the Nomadic Trooper (bow/lance) and the Ranger (bow/sword). That leaves out the bow/axe combination.

The mounted mage situation seems to have accounted for this with the Mage Knight/Seer/Valkyrie trio. So my suggestion is the addition of another class, as a nomad promotion, called the Charger (or any other suitable name).

Let me know what you all think.

I think Raider sounds cooler, and I say a class like this before elsewhere. The only problem would be is that it would give Nomads 3 promotion paths while others only have 2.

Wyvern Riders and Pegasus Knights also miss out on axe/sword, and no foot soldier gets lance/bow.

It may get added, but adding more classes so that every last weapon combination exists isn't high on our to-do list.

[Yorick]

Raider is a cool name, Edrick.

And Richter, Wyvern Riders have the Dragon Knight for axe and Wyvern Lord for sword, as do Peg Knights in the form of Seraph Knights and Falco Knights.

The foot soldier point is true - a counterpart would be similar to the Yeoman, but with lance. Possible soldier promotion, perhaps? I have no strong feelings about that one.

I appreciate your consideration; I wasn't expecting it to be a point of major concern. Just an idea. I'd promote Tamaya to Raider in an instant if it existed, but that'll take another hundred posts.

If you and the rest of the staff do decide to add it, I could draft a brief description akin to those found in Gabriel's unofficial guide, if you'd like.
