Archer Hero Confirmed? New Pirate and Resistance Chars?

Add me to the list of people who think it's dumb to point out that dual-wielding crossbows is physically impossible.

"Magic Warrior" = "White Knight" = "Red Mage"

Except there's not much magic about White Knights/Paladins.

Battlemages are definitely the closest thing we have to magic warriors.
Even Dawn Warriors are closer to being "magic warriors" than White Knights.

But if they make another "Magic Warrior" we can say goodbye to a good chunk of our bandwagon's population!

Though, assuming they do make a Resistance Warrior, I would like to see Nexon force them to use Blunt Weapons or Axes. Currently both weapon types are crap since they have absolutely no advantages over swords, so no Explorer would dare touch them.

I've never heard a single bandwagoner say they made a Paladin because it's a "magic warrior" (mostly cause it isn't).

I fully agree with your second paragraph though.
I'm still hoping they eventually force Palis to be 1H, Heros to be 2H, and Dragon Knights to use spears.

What we need is:

Bowman hero that can fly and attack in air (the girl animation has wings, so who knows...)
Pirate who uses fists and no weapons. Uses combo, but it runs out way faster than Aran, though giving way more att buff too. Street fighter style
Thief/Pirate who is specialized in bombs. Sets up different bombs, can shoot missiles and create different combos with those. Ultimate: Nuclear bomb, kills all mobs in range bit better than genesis and leaves radioactive cloud which will kill next mobs for next 3minutes. If other players, including the bomber himself are inside the range of radioactive cloud or explosion, they will die too. Cooldown of 15-30mins or stuff.

I disagree with your use of the word "need".

A flying character would be pretty cool as well as hopefully provide some actual new gameplay style.
A weapon-less character will never happen though, because it caps the ability of that class to further strengthen itself and also means Nexon doesn't have a new item that people will spend hundreds of dollars on to cube.

I kinda hope the bomb thing was a joke...

Come to think of it, wielding a Sword in one hand and a Gun in another would be pretty cool.

Yes, I totally ripped that idea off from Granado Espada. Sue me.

You mean every pirate in fiction ever?
