Hey guys just wondering if anybody out there also thinks that the HQ should redraw the 3rd job class sprites since they are so "not attractive". I mean even the transcendent classes look better than them! Could any moderators here actually propose to the HQ for a re-sprite? XD

So here is my interpretation of how the sprites should look like, based on the official character design:




And I've actually tried animating the female rune knight:

You don't like the Genetic's 'Munching Shoulder Pads'

Personally I like the Old RK Armor better, maybe have the stones glow when they are in active animation. and then change color to a dull gray when dead.

I do think the munching pad is cool cause it gives some sort of biological feeling to the genetics.
I've also heard different opinions on RK's armor too. Most people love the old design for its magical feeling since it's "rune" knight after all

I like the slim down GX sprite...maybe add in a scarf like the sinx one ^_^

[Yomihime]

The new RK sprite doesn't represent the RK's official art anymore at all, so I like the old one better Also the AB's sprite, the sleeves doesn't look similiar with the official art D: I think that's it for awhile

Re-sprite rangers' warg. The concept art of warg is so great, but the in-game sprite is just awful... Whoever from GravityKR approved that sprite must have been blind! Current warg's sprite is like "Epic Fail"... @__@

Original art :






Warg in RO could be like the sweetest candy for one's eyes... So gorgeous, yet so atrocious in-game... =(

Royal Guards... the females... they have HUGE shoulders and tiny hips. So disproportional.

Shoulders of Doom are a MUST for any 'Warrior' Class in games nowadays... *facepalm*

Also... the old Female's RK design was a sudden change too. From Class Profile having a Miniskirt then suddenly in-game to having just a panty.

Also, I think maybe the Super Novice Expansion was honestly the most half-poring'd job in the Updates. No New Sprites, Personally from what I see the Super Novice's main theme is about well...

Perseverance and that Level Up Angel. So maybe pimp up their armor, add some Sleeves for god's sake... (I don't care about the 'Private Rank' Tattoos on the Male's Arms.

From what I believe... supposedly the Warg was supposed to be for the Hunter Class but got pushed back until it just surfaced now.

Sorcerers are chunkyy.

[AhinaReyoh]

Sorcerers are chunkyy.

They're anything but chunky; just they have wide hips. (Which has been a Sage thing since the beginning.)

Yeah their hips are redonk.

Geneticist's armor looks a bit heavy... Any kind of alchemist would wear a light armor =.=b

[Chigikogou]

but they are merchant class.
Sorry they are used to it.

How did you animate those rune knight? What program did you use?

[VermillionT]

jRO sold the alternative RK sprite as a cash shop item. I wish we could get that here.

[Digimonic]

From the looks of this, I have a few opinions. (when i saw that chibi pic of the ranger it was love at first sight. nice design btw.)

Rune Knight= It was ok the way it was...even if it did look like the old "Dark Power Rangers".

Warlock= It was probrably my favorit designs from the renewal classes. Reminded me of Zero's outfit somewhat and C2. (If it was white you would see where im going with this)

Arch bishop= Wow that small end of the dress would definitly would put people into temptation. /gg (just a fashion PoV) (approval as is /no1)

Guillotine Cross= Oh god they should have just gave the design from the manga, like Loki's battle suit from the chapter in Geffen. Something hot but similar for the ladies too, to make the class more attractive.

Ranger= Maybe the shoes should have been a solid color so people wont guess it was sandals or something cause I was puzzeld about that. The wolf however, gave me a RP idea about how wargs and people mated and that explains how the kobolds were born either beastilaty or a gene experiment from the Rekenbeker corp ( ro shinra lol)

Mechanic= Well, not sure what to say about them cause they seemed ok. Most chose the class just to ride in the mini gundam so I doubt you will see the sprite often.

Royal Guard= They spend 80% of their life on gryphons if not 95%. I doubt you can see their outfits that much anyways or at least its mega rare to see them without one, unless they just job changed. Paladins looked better, then again alot of pre renewal outfits were preferred. Paladin was one of the unfortunates which had better clothes before 3rd job. Warlock was a lucky one though since the HW and wizards looked like chess pieces before renewal...at least now you can see they have a body under that cape.

Sorcerer= I also liked scholar (male) the ribbons were cool and the females were chunky or somewhat from the waste down but had their own speical charm i guess if ur into that sorta thing. this design pic shows them abit more fit though, an improvement? Maybe.

Sura= They are cool too clothes wise. Some in eden made a small fun about them being too poor to afford shoes and also couldnt get into resturants cause of the "no shoes, no shirt, no service" policy. Overall they were also one of the lucky classes that still looked pretty cool after the renewal design also, the bandage bra shows their " firce battle spirit" either that or their ya knows....were used as sheilds during close combat. anyways moving on. If you want a desine change try going for a bootleg DBZ look so you wont have to worry about copyright. Makes sense since alot of their skills are obvious references to some of the moves from that godforsakenly long anime.

Shadow Chaser= Alot avoided the rogue class due to holding the "bot class" title for oh so many years. The look does scream "down with society, ANARCHY" but if you want a design change i couldnt think of a reference maybe .hack// or perhaps a "gurren lagann" theme since they both have something about breaking laws and soicety and have skulls. I think they seem pretty hot.
Gotta make it look hot and bold though keeping the standards for the theif class and all. The appeal for the sinx and Stalker (fem) is pretty high out of the other classes. Sorry if it seemed too blunt or offensive.

Minstrel/Wanderer= Male is abit poofy and epicness of the bard's cape has dissapeared in this outfit. Though it does give the "duke or count" of a castle theme or a light joker its a optional thing but no complaints from other people from where I was lookin around so no worry on it. This version of the Wanderer however from the current design in game...is by far more lovely. The simplicity is gorgeous and has a careing look about it. I would definitly appprove of this if it was gonna gonna be the next spirte redo cause the current one looks like a naked chicken (animals are naked by defualt im referring to a plucked chicken) or at least someoen that was from the aftermath of a tar and feathering then got cleaned up and that was the result but this post is long enough so time for the next class! ( this is by far the longest post ive ever written period never made something so huge not even in the other games I played. If the net crashes after I click post and have to rewrite I suppose you will see me in the crazy bin/asylum for 40 years worth of thearpy)

Genetic= Have no idea what to say about this one as far as the male goes cause some like it and some thinks its horrid and so I'll say it seems pretty ok. The face of the armor wants blood and vengance for being turned into a monster RAWR!!!! and is nomming on their belly buttons. I like the shoes for the female design though (in game design I mean, it was a black/white mix)

Super Novice= I know it wasnt on the list but I just had to say something about it. It is fine as it is. the expanded classes shouldnt even have a 2nd class to begin with, thats where the "expanded" part comes from but you know how people are. Anyways as far as designs go you hear people complain about the designs they made for renewal so dont change supernovice for anything. if you think it was bad what they did to the ORIGINALS dont make them change a thing about SN as the old saying goes "If it isnt broke, dont fix it". nuff said. putting that aside why not just keep the same look of the all the extends and uber buff their skills to playable standards. maybe add a few extra. if you want to worry about woe ...god why are folks so bloodthirsty? Random homiscidal impulse outlet? cause they probrably get arrest for killing people irl meh i doubt it since alot of those cold cases stay cold and people never get caught. anyways this post is mega long I'll be done for a good while. That was the list of my opinons. You are dismissed ^.~

[VermillionT]

Royal Guard should've had a cape, and not a shield on it's back. Why break with tradition?
Guillotine Cross could've done with some sort of cloak. They're not very stealthy looking as is.
Male Archbishop looks cheap. It looks like a rushed design with less work put into the concept. There's significantly less detail on his clothes than any of the previous priest classes.
Male Ranger's chest looks weird. The clothing doesn't sit right.
Genetic's man-eating shoulderpads are stupid. 'nuff said. Where's the lab coat?

[Digimonic]

Really? A lab coat....whoa havent thought of that. I can see how that would fit but. We are Adventurers, lab coat doesnt seem like something people would fight in. Only action I've seen is alchemist save lives by throwing glass bottles on someones head, ironically it saves them instead of killing them. xD and male ranger i do agree on that, cause male hunter tree in general looked pretty messed up. Well male sniper was cool. out of the 2nd trans and 3rd outfits. I remember a AB named Arkvic just now he had a cool hat. Sorta reminded me of the guys in the mafia. Get the ride headgear and arch bishop (male) can be a pimp. oh and dont forget the right hair (ive tested this ALOT, head gears with certain hairstyles FAIL) i mean they are elither waivering or tilted. the headgears only look proper with the old style hair styles...like the first 4 when ro first came out. seems alot of headgears arent affected by them.
