A famous man once said "Without change there is no innovation, creativity, or incentive for improvement. Those who initiate change will have a better opportunity to manage the change that is inevitable."There is a life motto that says "If something is not broken, don't fix it". Cipsoft actually did a very good job at balancing the 4 vocations, so we think it's much more beneficial for the server to carefully add custom spells and new features to the existing vocations, than to delete them and make new ones.
If we did, the server would probably be anything but balanced. Personally, on every server that I have played that had custom vocations I was able to find one that topped the rest. And mostly also one that was plainly useless.

Ehh, if you're trying to attract the OT community that's interested in custom RPGs, the majority of these players are tired of the cliche 4 vocations and spells provided by Cipsoft. Balancing custom vocations is difficult but it's also a major aspect of a custom server and by neglecting it, you're just lowering the overall quality of your server.
100% true. Also the 4 Cipsoft vocations are not 100% balanced in my opinion, and there is always room for improvement.Ehh, if you're trying to attract the OT community that's interested in custom RPGs, the majority of these players are tired of the cliche 4 vocations and spells provided by Cipsoft.

As much as I do love custom vocations I do understand your reason for not having them. Balancing custom vocations is quite hard indeed. At least you have a few custom spells for each vocation so that's better than nothing! Considering the server will be released in about 25 hours it's to late for any dratic changes anyway. Though in the future it would be pretty cool to see vocations having passives like Destruckto suggested, or perhaps a 3rd promotion that comes with some new spells.
Been craving to play a tibia server and hopefully this one will last me more than a week! I've played both ERA's in the past but never got far at all so I know little to nothing. I hope there are some nice people willing to help me out in game-chat!
Anyone can update me on the trainers? I quit last season when those were introduced...
I'd rather they only went for the old-school training instead of adding the new offline training.
So how does the system work etc etc?
Completely true, and one of the objectives of this, or any other server is to bring change and innovation (else we would all play real Tibia). I did not mean that change is bad. I just meant that for us, it is better to apply change (new spells and features) on an already existing, solid base (tibia's vocations) rather than to start them from 0.
Obviously, our goal is that one day, the vocations will have changed so much that they will not resemble the 4 original ones. But we prefer to do changes slowly, rather than to rush it.
