Hei folks, this is just a post for me to remind myself to finish a class that I've been delaying for way too long. Its sort of Paladin + buffer kind of class. The inspiration and motivation behind this class was due me waiting for Salan's Paladin class to be finished and it's still not complete. So I took up the initiative and start learning GUTs around.... last year. Didn't progress much in the class and I got burn out and left the class in damsel. Lately I've been eager to play a Pally so I might as well finish my own class.
The class, like the name suggested was very Warcraft Lore inspired, it focuses around 2 handed weapons and a shield for those who strongly believes Pally must hold shield. I'm not good at class creation as most of the time I was just messing around in particles section. The class offensive focuses a lot on random procs, coz I don't wanna make it just like another engineer or berserker class, though it results in quite an unreliable DPS position.
The Charge Bar is based around engineer's charge bar, but instead of gaining charges by attacking, Lightbringer can only gain charge through time, which it will replenish itself over course of time. Whenever a spell uses a charge, it'll proc [Judgement] to deal extra damage if its a offensive spell, or [Redemption] if its a defensive/buff spell.
I've finished about 2/3 of the spells. Hopefully I can finished the class before end of the year. This is my first post so if there's anything I need to amend/improve please let me know. Below are some picture's of what I've done so far. and I might change the name, but we'll see how it goes
Wow this looks impressive.
If you need some skills you can probably take a few from the WoW Paladin 2.0 mod.
I thought of rebalance the mod and add new skills but I'm running out ideas to do it. Plus your class look much more polished by looking at the screenshot.
Hi,
@VizIf you need some skills you can probably take a few from the WoW Paladin 2.0 mod.
Do you mean this, right?

Yeah, it would be great if it could happen.
By the way
@Rhythmier, this looks great.
I can not wait to see it.
Thanks! But that class belongs to different modder, so unless I was permitted, I wouldn't be able to use his class
But that being said, I did installed that mod before, I'll revisit the mod to get some inspiration
Anyway, here's an update, the particles for [Hallowed Ground], still messing with the affixes and skills
Hey
@Rhythmier your particle work gives a good feel of what to expect from the class / nice!
If you need any help with the skill-crafting parts just give us a shout. Personally i can help out with textures and some mesh-work (if it's simple enough
but for serious stuff Kva3imoda is a lot better). For UI stuff there's doudley and lolesch
I agree, the class looks nice!
Thank you
@Phanjam @doudley ! I think the class will have that classic Paladin look, I hope
For now I'll focus more on the skills and FX, after all the skills and FX are done, I'll probably upload the Beta version of this and then, while balancing the class, I'll play around with the UI and icons, right now I'm still using vanilla icons and my charge bar still makes that engineer sound when it gains a charge, not to mention it's still looks like an engineer too
Yeah beta! Id be happy to playtest
but the problem is im slow with feedback bcos i always volunteer
This looks absolutely fantastic! I would love to beta test if that's something that you're looking for.
Same here, let me know if you need to test it
@Darkthan9800 @Sch123 @Phanjam thank you for all the supports! I'll try to make it reach Beta ASAP.
I've just complete one of the buff skills last night, I might be able to make more progress this weekend. Once I did I'll post some screenshots here. Hype hype
Long OVERDUE PROJECT! Sorry about the burnout guys, it was really a bad timing when I first discover this website as I was already on the verge of burnout modding GUTS, so I didn't manage to follow up on this mod like after a month posting here or so.
But anyway, my itch is back and I'm picking up where I left. The class i would say is about 70% ready to be played (excluding icons and other visual/audio details). I still need sometime to refresh on what I've done before (thank God I had a note for that) and I should be able to upload this overdue project.
I really really wanted to at least upload 1 mod before I'm too old to be gaming, and by old I mean my daughter was just born last Nov, I'm moving for the 3rd time in the last 12 months, and I can hardly have time for gaming now XD
And as for preview, here are some updated buffs that I was working on before, some work on pally alone while 4 of them works with ally and pets (visual included!) . As you can see I'm stuck on the 2nd skill page because I'm still unsure what weapon specifically I want over there, but I think I'm just gonna go with spear/staff hybrid, make it like war priest kinda thing
Hi
@Rhythmier WOW looks great, can not wait for the finished product
and by old I mean my daughter was just born last Nov
And congratulations for the birth of a beautiful baby girl! There is no doubt that she will be part of the most amazing and beautiful memory of your life. I hope your life is filled with joy & luck.
