I miss a priest class

I know, we have druid, we have paladin but priest or cleric class it’s very different.
The archetype has his own way to think.
Maybe should be too much powerful, I don’t know.
Someone has the same feeling?

What I miss would be a archetype akin to Warrior Priest (from Warhammer Fantasy).
So something like a Battle Cleric.

Medium Armour
1H Hammer + Book, Dual Wielding 1H Hammer or 2H Hammer
Faith shielding him from physical attacks
Zealous ferocity charging into battle

What would you want from a cleric class that you can’t already do with a caster Paladin?

For me a very very big part of the fantasy would be the appearance.

I don’t want a armoured knight.
I want a middle aged man with some Robes an Strapped Leather.

Also I really dislike the Fire/Holy scheme from paladin, it just doesn’t click with me.

I really would love to have holy damage as a seperate damagetype. (This already exsited waaaay back, but they devs dialed it back because there are already so many damage types)

I would want a spammable holy melee attack, that imbues your weapon with your faith.
Either a Hammer, a Flail or maybe even a Censer as a weapon.

For spells I would want the character to speak words when casting them. Like cite something from some holy scrolls etc.

So the Paladin then.

That doesn’t really sound much like the D&D cleric though & certainly not a battle cleric.

Was that in Alpha? 'Cause it wasn’t there when I joined & that was only 17 days after you…

The Paladin even has a skill called Smite!

For me, the ideal next class would be Scientist.
With maybe masteries like :

  • Alchemist, brewing potions of various lengths and effets.
  • Tinker, making mines and gadgets.
  • Geologist, who knows the difference between cobalt and nickel.
  • …or an inventor that wear a mecha-armor and have a few mechanic minions.

The archetype I miss the most, compared to archetypes I’ve enjoyed in other games, is a trapper. Something like the trapsin in D2 or trap/mines in PoE.

Well hope u get covered with the new Falconeer, sounds like some traps will be added with this Mastery.

We smack the crap out of most gods. I’m suprised we have even one holy themed class.
