Not sure when this change was implemented, but I strongly approve. How recently was this done? Was shaman the only new class added for npcs? Has warlock been added, do you have plans to add it?


(All I know so far is that shaman has been implemented.) My understanding is that previously, shaman + warlock were not coded as classes that NPCs could play as -> yet all other classes were able to be used.

I noticed a shaman NPC today, for the first time ever.

Might have made all of this up, but I'm pretty sure.

I've seen some warlock spells used (conjure elemental) by some NPCs, not sure about other spells, though. I like the shaman NPCs, though.

Have you seen a NPC actually cast it and not script it?

I've seen NPCs cast it on spawning, although I'm not sure if they refresh it correctly after the elemental disappears.

Yeah, that's a script. Just like many NPCs load with spirit aura up -> that's just a script. Today I actually found a NPC that cast spirit horde, dispel magic, and curse. I am unsure if warlock NPCs exist yet, but it's cool that shaman were put into the game and are now a possibility as tribunal NPCs.

Naw, there are warlock NPCs that cast it, Trillice casts it now.

Trillice has casted it at spawn forever, even when warlocks were publicly stated to be unavailable as a class (for NPCs) - it seems that she has had the spell manually added and scripted to cast it every time she spawned. While still being an elemental priest, like all the other "warlocks".

Would be nice enough to see more NPC classes, just please remember to remove voodoo/conjure elemental from any tribunal NPCs which might come around.

Mage-guards in Tlaxcala used to be able to conjure fire elementals, though as I recall they could never be removed from Tlaxcala.

They're what now. Barbs?

It sounds so much better if you present it as facts. I just seem to recall something about shamans = nature-priests and warlocks = elemental-priest. Hence my Holmesian deduction about Trillice. *flexes his pipe*
