Skaven Classes?

[Sovurai]

Hi I saw recently on some old news about their being 4 Skaven classes available!

If this is true,what were those classes? and is their any chance it will be added to this?

If not,enjoy these pictures of some!

I hear they were half-hearted implementations which could be temporarily assumed as one's class in PvP.

i played this scenario, where was implemented these classes, Packmaster was healer gutter runner stealted dps, warlock engi rdps and ratogre was something like aoe tank.
it was fun to change classes and play with big rats for time to time

they are alredy implemented in game , and they are not classes, they are a play as monster meccanic, you can transform yourself into one of them and use some unique abilites, they an offer, they are not usefull at all, exept gutter runner and engi both for keep defense and assoult.
Rat ogre can basicaly do 3 things, attack door, lunch ppl on wall (yea that is fun but is restricted to wb ...), die....yes die cos it can onyl be healed by a pack master that is crap healer...
You need in order to transform to have keep at x/5 stars ( cant remember atm), and only if 1 of 2 realm have complete the skaven scenario that pop in Orvr. Furthermore it can be only LIMITED NUMBER of skaven around

it was separated from game, it was 1 scenario, where you chose from three options for which profession you want to play
rat ogre was special profession, it was enabled when you take "bomb" (and delivered it to opponent factory - when you have bomb, you was a rat ogre, after 2 or 3 mins you exploded

Still seems like great fun,I hope they add it.
I really like the idea of Packmaster and Ratogre working together :3

so.. like a merc faction playable on either side?
but there is so much more work to be done on RoR just to get it functioning like retail.
If any new classes were added, I'd rather see extras to the current race list.
copy existing mechanics and change spell effects
like a DE beastmaster, DE assassin(WE reskin), DE Executioner, Ogre Hunter(empire), other wizard schools, orc shaman(just model swap option) ect

There were instances involving them and they were also options available for open world PvP.

As Tesq said, think of them more as a sort of transformation. Your character became one of them, they had a very small and specialized ability set, and were basically only viable in certain circumstances. Gutter Runner and Engineer were the only two I felt were useful. iirc there was a limited count of each that each faction could have in a zone -- it's been a long time.
