Special Notes
So over the years I've noticed that, one of the reasons I no longer play Helbreath is because there is basically no variety when it comes to Classes. As many of you know, nowadays most games have tons of classes and each class has quite a few amount of specs.
My suggestions is basically adding specs to the only two classes Helbreath currently has. I've been working on the Mages, mostly, because that's my favorite class. I have already thought about some really cool Warrior specs but I haven't gone too deep into it yet. I figured four specs for each class would be more than enough for now. The specs I came up with so far for the Mage are: Air (Low damage and high CC), Fire (High damage), Ice (Mid damage and Slow debuff), and Earth (Low damage, armor reducing, and SP removing).
Another thing to keep in mind is that each specialization, for both mages and warriors, is entirely unique. They each get to have their own thing so that players can basically pick whatever they feel most comfortable with.
Now keep in mind, damage is basically X (nothing as of yet). All of these spells would go under careful testing to balance out damage as best as possible. Special effects might not even be possible to add, they are only suggestions, I am not quite sure how far the designers can go but hopefully they'll impress us!
Important Notes
(Rare) = Rare spells, dropped from monsters.
(New) = Spells I have came up with to spice up each Element.
* = Usable by all Mage specs.
Summon Creature = I thought it'd be cool to give each Element their own summonable pets. More will be added if suggestion go through.
Burn = The target burns for the next 10 seconds for 5 fire damage every 2 seconds. (This is a little bit like Poison except it will scale up like any other spell). Only certain fire spells will have this added effect.
New Stat Restrictions
So with these new specialization changes come new stat restrictions. What this means is basically if you want to get the best spells/abilities from one specialization, you will have to put most of your points on the stat that corresponds or compliments that specialization. Keep in mind though, once you choose either Mage or Warrior when creating your character, it will be pointless to put stat points on Stats that don't correspond to your class (warrior or mage), (maybe they can be removed as an option?). Although other stats CAN be chosen if kept within the class (someone who chose Destruction as their main spec can also put points into Vitality, but they will be limited to the abilities they can get from Vitality). This also means that armors will not need a certain amount of a stat in order to be equipped (no more X int or X str to equip something) because every specialization (once chosen) will have their own sets of armor they can wear.
Strength - Destruction warriors
This stat increases damage dealt by warriors in general.
Intelligence - Fire mages
This stat increases damage dealt by mages in general.
Dexterity - Blood warriors
This stat increases hitting probability for warriors and adds a % of HP steal based on how high it is.
Mind (old Magic) - Air mages
This stat increases hitting probability for mages.
Charisma - Hunter warriors & Ice mages
This stat increases damage done to monsters for both warriors and mages.
Vitality - Protection warriors & Earth mages
This stat increases the amount of HP, defense, and magic defense that a player has.
Mages
So mages will go through some changes in their kit. Aside from the different stat choices that you'll have to make, the only other main difference is that every mage will have a set amount of mana based on their level since Magic would no longer be a stat (changed to Mind).

Warriors
So the idea I had for warriors was actually pretty cool in my opinion. Like mages, they will have to choose a specialization at a certain level and the weapons they will use will depend on that choice. So in other words, not every warrior will be able to wield the best Battle Hammer or the best Bow. Each specialization will have their unique sets of weapons that they use (of course there will still be a big variety of them). Not only that, but they would no longer be able to equip staves and cast spells (it doesn't make sense for them to do that anyway) but instead they will each have their own sets of abilities which can only be "casted" will they are equipped with their "main weapon." So for example, if you choose to make a Protection warrior, your main stat will most likely be Vitality. The higher your Vitality is, the better "tanky" abilities you get. This system would basically work like Intelligence works for mages; the higher the stat, the better abilities you can obtain. This also means that they will no longer be in need of Mana. Most abilities will have a cooldown instead so that they can't be abused.
Protection - High defense / Low damage / Wields shields & one-handed weapons / Wears Platinum Plate armors
Specialty Bonus: Stat points placed on the Vitality stat count for twice the amount of HP.
The basic idea of this specialization is to make them the damage soakers of the team. They won't be the ones killing people but they will be the ones protecting their allies with their abilities.
(New)(Rare) Intervene - Protects an ally from all damage for X seconds. 1 minute cooldown.
Blood - Medium defense / Medium damage / High sustain / Wields two-handed long swords / Wears Gold Plate armors
Specialty Bonus: You gain twice the amount of HP back when hitting enemies.
This will actually be something kind of fun to play with. These types of warriors are kind of a jack of all trades. Their defense and damage will be decent while at the same time they'll have an extra passive ability which will heal them back based on a % of the damage they do.
Hunter - Low defense / High PvE damage / Low PvP damage / Wields bows / Wears Silver Plate armors
Specialty Bonus: Increases party drop chance by X%, EXP gained by X%, and gold gained by X%.
This is basically what it sounds like, a hunter. Their abilities will give them bonuses while hunting monsters but their PvP damage will be low but consistent (considering they are ranged). You will want them in your parties while killing hard bosses or leveling up!
Destruction - Medium defense / High damage / Wields two-handed hammers and axes / Wears Gold Plate armors
Specialty Bonus: Running speed is increased by X amount.
So these guys are basically the strongest ones in terms of damage. They will have the highest burst of all the specs but their defenses will be average.
So over the years I've noticed that, one of the reasons I no longer play Helbreath is because there is basically no variety when it comes to Classes. As many of you know, nowadays most games have tons of classes and each class has quite a few amount of specs.

Hunter - Low defense / High PvE damage / Low PvP damage / Wields bows / Wears Silver Plate armors
Specialty Bonus: Increases party drop chance by X%, EXP gained by X%, and gold gained by X%.
This is basically what it sounds like, a hunter. Their abilities will give them bonuses while hunting monsters but their PvP damage will be low but consistent (considering they are ranged). You will want them in your parties while killing hard bosses or leveling up!
Destruction - Medium defense / High damage / Wields two-handed hammers and axes / Wears Gold Plate armors
Specialty Bonus: Running speed is increased by X amount.
So these guys are basically the strongest ones in terms of damage. They will have the highest burst of all the specs but their defenses will be average.
