Just my opinion but compared to the Other races in this game I think the Empire's choice in classes are pretty poor RP-wise compared to what the Dwarfs, and elves have. I mean once I think about the Empire I usually Imagine Halbers, Spears, Greatswords and Handgonnes not a single class for their empire can wield any of these weapons (except for the greatsword) but their NPC's can... anyone else feel the same way?
(That's not to say though that the classes they have in the game aren't good gameplay wise, Kotbs, and Warrior priests are still among my favorite classes in the game)

Re: Empire Worst RP "Race"
With all due respect i think it's your lack of imagination when it comes to RP and not the fault of the classes.

Re: Empire Worst RP "Race"
Empire NPCs are either common farmfolk, conscripted civilians or military trained elites. The classes are unique to distinguish players from the rest of the rabble. In the future there are plans for including NPC weapons and armor for roleplay use, but as of now they cannot be added to player gear load-outs.
Also, if you want to argue weapon use across Order classes, Elves and Dwarfs are simply luckier in the sense that their both soldiers and unique units are highly trained in the arts of weapon crafting and using. Even the most common Dwarf Warrior has a glistering axe/hammer and finely balanced shield, while the use of swords and spears is mandatory in the High Elf unit roster. Hatchets, crossbows and halberds are common tools for any Empire citizen and militia. And yes, I'm aware such tools can also be used and made for the elite, but Mythic intentionally separated player items from NPC items.

Would it be possible to permit a knight to use a spear, borrowing the animations from a 2h BG, if only visually?

Possible with client control, yes. Empire NPCs have their own spear attack animations, but we'd obviously have to spice things up considering the list of Knight abilities.NoRKaLKiLLa wrote:Would it be possible to permit a knight to use a spear, borrowing the animations from a 2h BG, if only visually?

Empire is the iron will of the mankind and a glowing medallion in the darkness.Faith my friend faith alone can create miracles it is very powerful and empire survives the day with those martyrs who waters its soil with their blood.
Alone only Witch Hunters are a whole big story and i dont even wanna talk about warrior priests. PURE ironwill and faith.Every empire class deserves a huge clap.

Re: Empire Worst RP "Race"
There are the different NPCs lined up on the other side of the war quarter.
Militia Soldiers, Handgunners and such.
And it would be great RP wise to get some of the appearances for the other empire classes.
Although when in RvR it should be clear for the enemy what class they are attacking.
At the Halloween event you could turn into an Skeletton.
And then you allways saw some skeletons in RvR. Didnt know if it was sorc, magus or any healer.
