Hum nyum, I need more info to decide which I'll play, but so far I'm considering:
Jin or Gon
Blade Master, Kung-Fu Master or Destroyer!
Though probably not the destroyer...lol |

I would probably be either a Blade Master, Kung Fu master or destroyer. Unless they make a better video of the gunner class :P |

Destroyer looked really badass, but it looks like it can only be done with Axes, or rather weapons for each class is limited to one choice like AIKA. I'm not really an Axe-Guy.
And I didn't mean this Axe: lol |

lol, don't forget to vote for the race you want to be too and SPECULATE!!!
we have plenty of time to argue over what may and may not be while more video is released and information is given. For instance I think some classes will be race locked and that there may be one or two classes "special" that can only be done via one race. Like in the video i saw the summoner class in action...took a little while to spot it but right near the end I saw a summoner Lyn at work.
@Bun - yeah the weapons will most definitely be class locked, that is the whole idea of specializing in blade/kung-fu/force/Destroying....
So feel free to speculate, by the way Py the blade master ripped up a Kung-Fu master in the film as did a Force Master. They were just examples, so even if the gunner got his ass kicked it might not reflect on the full nature of the perspective class. Rather just as a demo of how the destroyer can shrug off all that damage and still get in close for the kill. Since destroyers appear to be slow, having one kill a ranged fast shooting attacker was a good demo of that classes principal. |

LMAO when i saw the class do that i thought of you smokie... Karli suggested a mini game where you have to fling bodies into a target area and it sounds right up your alley for a sport. |

We haven't seen much of the Kun race, or have we? I think the Kun was at the end of one of the videos in the lake spreading cherry blossoms in addition to the race introduction. That makes me think they might be 'best suited class for healer'. Like how Gons are massive and suited for melee classes.
Blade Master's sword is too small for me in my opinion lol, like Neph said, I tend to prefer the up close and personal classes.
My original thought was to be a Jin Kung-Fu Master, but if Gon Kung-Fu masters over power them too much (like in strength aswell as speed and other physical attributes), I might go Gon...I dunno lol
And here I will make a prediction that will definately come true:
Smokie impale + axe throw PK list: Javlon, Vor, Karli, Jav, Vor, Dockie, Arri, Jav, Kyr, Jav,Sakurambo, Jav, Charlie(!), Vor, Jav, Bunshi, Jav , Jav, Jav, Vor, Jav, Jav, Jav, Vor....
The Wall running looked nice, but on careful examination looks like its going to be very specific where it can be activated. One of the dungeon videos showed a marker on the floor where they had to run to activate wall running.
Atleast Classes won't be gender locked! Except for Kun I think it was - restricted to only females, and Lyn you couldn't tell much difference I think lol
I'm kinda hoping there will be another melee type class but I know its next to impossible with the 3 already introduced |

lol...impale list...
I hadn't thought about the wall running at all..too bad you can't do it everywhere...
All of the races besides the KUN are male/female. The kun race is locked to female only there is a rather extensive discussion of that in the korean forums. I broke down and got a friend who could read it to translate some information in the forums there for me. I am not sure if the races will have stat benefits too them or not. I mean the Gon definitely seem to have the strength aspect down, but their speed so far is...well the suck.
If each race has benefits and drawbacks it might work out. For instance a Gon Kung-fu master might hit harder but not as often as a Jin/Kun/Lyn version of the same class. Which boils down to how you choose to play. If you build your fist fighter on 1-2 hit killing and the game is built to alloy that kind of build then you're gravy. If not well then you might be in trouble. The biggest problem I see there is a tag team pvp where the slow but deadly Gon gets held in the air by some force masters as their friends beat the crap out of the Gon/Gons. For the classes so far it seems only the destroyer class benefits from the idea of race specific "stats" for str/spd/ag/etc.etc....
The game in general seems like it could suffer from serious imbalance in the classes. I mean can force masters hold anything regardless...or is there some sort of resistance and/or miss rate on the skill??? Like wise I see both the blade and kung-fu masters blocking or parrying attacks, is that unlimited always guard or can you break the guard. Plus if they are guarding can't a Gon Destroyer just wallop them anyway?? Not to mention the kun-fu master class supposedly having grapple skills [from Korean forums], which would indicate they can grab someone and beat them up.
I imagine that the only other classes we will be seeing are the summoner and Gunner though. Sorry Bunshi but there aren't many other weapons out there. You have Swords/Blade Master, Hand to Hand/Kung-fu Master, Heavy Weapons/Destroyer. Spells are taken over by force, summon by the Lyn I keep seeing in the videos and the mysterious gunner takes over ranged attacks that aren't magic based. The only other weapon I can think of would be a spear wielding class. Which would be a mid-ranged weapon user, but that is more likely to be in the "extra" classes they add in expansions as the game progresses. That isn't to say summoner and gunner aren't going to be expansion classes as well. The game could likely open with just the 4 main classes shown in the video and later have an expansion that adds 4 new classes: Gunner, Summoner, Spear Master, Ninja/Assassin
With these classes come new benefits, maps, towns, missions, dungeon instances, monsters, DoT skills, stealth...etc |

Seeing as the Kung-fu master is a close range fighter I kinda hope that some time they'll get one of my favorite weapons the Tonfa! |

Everything seems to say from NCsoft that Blade and Soul will be out in 2011 and that the CBT will be sometime this year. Specifically they seemed to be saying in the first half of 2010. The Korean site doesn't seem to have any in-game error reporting going on so I doubt it has started yet. Besides those of us state-side won't be seeing a cbt/obt/release till late this year or early next year. |

Lol well that is my plan for guild domination, I'll continue to entice everyone to play so that I can enjoy being able to play with everyone on one game. That is my insidious plan...to control all your actions via carrot/stick method.
So beware the V hype! |
