I thinked that the samurai town would be a secret for doing something in samurai starter, how do you think that?

Anyone is online? Strange... Everyone gone in WC at the same time... Well, the samurai could be... Sorry I doublepost again... Samurai would have high armour, medium health, low arcane magic, high wisdom and medium dexterity. What does everyone else think about this?

Nope.
Medium armor, high dexterity, no magic, medium health, high wisdom/intelligence.

But I already made him use arcane magic. Because without it, he is kinda like too rogueish still...

No, Samurais should do nothing of the sort.

Samurai could have Disarm attacks. No jousting? He can read. No poison use?

Really, what is it that makes him unique from the Soldier?

Yes, you use the Rogue model, Rogue sounds and maybe even other stuff, but he has a role as a Fighter, which is already taken by the Soldier. You must think it of it this way: "What can the Samurai do what the Soldier cannot do?".

If there is any point creating a new player class, he must fill a unique role or else he is just a variation class with a different skin.

Well said.
Maybe, in this case, we could possibly have, depending upon how you act as your class, sub-classes? Like, for example, if you play Rogue and are commonly known for stealthy kills, you could become an Assassin. Then you would have acces to special skills etc. etc.

I like that, How about we make an Xp requirement, as well as other tastks you must preform.
For instance, a Rogue>Assasin upgrade, would require 2500 exp and 50 stealth kills.
A Paladin>Crusader or something would require 4000 exp and 250 Slain Undead.

Upgrading would unlock a new Ability, and different skins.

Excellent. Shouldn't be too hard to implement either.
