Three types of warriors Three types of mages but only Two pirates classes Two Thives classes Two Bowman classes I want you to contemplate what a third class of each of those three would be like in 2nd job, 3rd job, and 4th job. luckywiz said: "Third archer class could be slingshots. they're faster than bows, but weaker, 2nd job they get a mob skill called ricochet, which works similarly to CL. in third job they get something like arrow gust, where their ammo (whatever it is) flies sideways. They use the lighting element. In fourth job they get a skill similar to hurricane, and they get to inflict seal on monsters like hamstring and blindness. other than that they're pretty much the same as the other archers."

Pirate = Cannoneer - A two handed cannon that shoots cannon balls... could get a skill like L7 that shooots multiples >=D Thief = Robber - Uses a sack with a dollar or meso sign on it to smash the enemy. Can be either one hand or two hand. Bowman = Nothing.. cant think of anything >_>

Third archer class could be slingshots. they're faster than bows, but weaker, 2nd job they get a mob skill called ricochet, which works similarly to CL. in third job they get something like arrow gust, where their ammo (whatever it is) flies sideways. They use the lighting element. In fourth job they get a skill similar to hurricane, but with a better % multiplier to make up for the slingshot's inferior damage range, and they get to inflict seal on monsters like hamstring and blindness. other than that they're pretty much the same as the other archers.

for a third thief class maybe instead of daggers it is a 1h sword/katana

third thieve class should be ninja, with all those martial arts weapons

We've got one good candidate. Lets add in elemental shots, shall we?

Bowman: Long Bowman - Uses the long bow and requires more strength than dex in its stat build. (Strength, in this case, determines the speed/damage/accuracy, but it still requires some dex as a base) Thief: Ninja - Uses moderately strong magic to inhance its attack and defence, but its HP stays below 2000. requires int, dex, and str. (int determines its defence, dex its speed, and str its damage) Pirate: Pillager - Uses a short curved blade which's speed is doubled by duel-weilding. Requires dex, str, and luk. (Dex = acc/speed, str = damage, luk = critical rate.)

The classes don't have to be strictly elemental, you know. >.>

Nha, not elemental classes, but give the slingshot archer the same style shot as the fire and ice shots of pirates, only give them a full set of them.

Pirate's 3rd class should be some form of duel-wielding or something.

pirates third class could be a captain, lieutenant, general or something. They don't fight for themselves, instead their kinda like summoners, only instead of summoning, they command a crew to fight for them. Basically all of their moves resemble BoT, ninja ambush, and ninja storm. They use str for damage because you need a strong leader. They also use knuckles in first job only, second job onward they use something for leadership (flags maybe? something leadership and pirate related). That way they wouldnt need a completely new set of first job skills for this class.
