Ive been playing vintage story for a few months now (since may of 2025 i believe) and i wont lie...im not a huge fan of the class selection.
Im also a solo player so the classes dont seem to be a good choice for me. (Thats my opinion on my own worlds not a fact!)
But i was thinking about it theres a couple types of classes i think would be good for some new ones.
And yes i know there are mods that edit classes i have yet to try any but i just think these would be nice for base game. (I have not seen everything for the newest version yet so forgive me if anything is in the 1.21 version!)
A forager or poison expert class: ok hear me out, there is tons of mushrooms in vintage story. Most seem to have an alternative version that is poison and reduces health. We could have a class that negates that effect or adds recipies that class can cook to remove the effect.
Explorer or archeologist class: so exploring is a lot of work in vintage story and we do get lots of ruins and other things. Perhaps this class can craft a compass to point to ruins? Maybe we can have a bonus to the loot we get from cracked vessels and from ruins chests.
A bargain or merchants class: Ok this one is a big maybe idea. I dont know how balanced the game would be but, perhaps a class that can bargain with traders? Or just give a discount when shopping with traders. there could be exclusive items only this class could trade. The only other thing i could think for this one is that you could get an expanded list of things to sell for gears.
Carpenter class: This ones a little simpler. Perhaps tbis class can get bonuses when crafting certain types of things. Like when making stairs, doors , roofs etc. (This one was a last second thing i thought of writing this but i feel like itd be nice)
I did not search through the suggestions to see if these had been suggested already Forgive me if someone did! but its just an idea for the devs, Or if anyone adds them to a mod tell me please ill try it out!
Mini note, sorry for my bad grammar and spelling i edited what i saw.
