    My guess with Bard just being green lit, Control archtype will be the last persented.

    To reiterate - it's still a "hope to have in" thing. It's currently looking promising, but it's by no means a guarantee.

     

    Tough to see how you can release a "quaternity" themed game with only one class as an option for the "Control" Archetype.  Need at least two more options for those of us that enjoy the Control role.  Obviously the Bard will fit that role, and it seems very easy to fit the Necromancer in that role as well, but it would be a mistake to release prior to getting THREE distinct optinos available in the game for the Control role.  Plus, I'm pretty sure the entire community is fine delaying the game a little longer to get the Bard and Necro in the game prior to launch.  Nobody wants to see a bazillion Enchanters as the only option to fill an integral role.

    Love the Orc lore. Looks like a fun race, I would love to see the NPCs play out some of this lore in game. Like an Orc that sneaks in to steal some meat from an alter and Female Orc Shaman slay him for it. What fun.

    Looking pretty sweet.  I cant' wait to see this in action:

    Beckon: Vale Hawks

    You beckon a pair of Vale Hawks to lift and carry you to target location.

    Was sure I was either going to play a monk or rogue... But the ranger abilities make me want to turn over a new leaf and play one.

    Ya I am so sure Im going to be a Bard but after reading the skills, Ranger skills will have me rolling a Ranger alt for sure. I love the creative skills on all 3 classes, some things I have never seen done in a MMO so that has me even more excited for Pantheon. Cant wait to see what you do with Bard skills =-)

    Great newsletter, thank you for all the info. The Paladin class looks very exciting. Welcome to the new team member. The Elf starting area and lands, Faerthale, pretty sure this will be starting zone.
