Talk:Portal:Classes

Rename it?
I realise with 4th Edition coming out this change may be dated, but what about changing this page to 'Portal:Classes' because of the base classes contained in the sourcebooks, such as Archivist and Warmage and to include NPC classes like expert, as well as the obvious barbarian, cleric etc. base classes? I lack the expertise to do this on my own, and I'm not sure that it would not infringe on another portal. Elfinor 07:52, 26 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Not a bad idea. Also, let's not just assume prestige classes are obsolete. A good many of them are, after all, paragon paths in 4e. However, I do think that the recent trend in deemphasis of game mechanics is a good one, so I expect to see less focus on prestige classes - particularly if they have no lore basis (for instince - an article about Doomguides would be smiled upon since they're both a prestige class / paragon path and an actual part of FR canon).

 * Sounds like a good idea. I'm not sure what to call it though.  "Classes" is generally seen to mean the base classes (in both 4e and 3e).  What's the best way to indicate we mean "Classes, Prestige Classes of 3e, Paragon Paths of 4e, and Epic Destinies of 4e", but in a succinct way? :)  15:43, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
