In 2k15 there was info about Centurion, developers planned to revive them.One of the most interesting class in the game was ripped out from it.Does anyone have any info about this class?
i actually thought this was the clone thing swordies do ( or the helmet thing swordies do[i have no ideas of stuffs outside my class build OxO])
but yeah what happened to this? but then again, the mechanics is a bit hard like players get accidentally get into the panels
Another of reasons I think IMC removed Centurion for now is due to how the game evolved.
It focused on formations for attacking, defending etc. But that’s actually counter-productive.
You don’t just auto-attack anymore. It conflicts with attacks/skills range against most things. The defense boosts from formation also interfered with range/gameplay and they’re not really needed anymore.
My opinion is that Centurion is either most likely to be removed or stay as an idea for quite long. Just like what we speculated about Pied Piper from gifs doesn’t seem to bring much to ToS gameplay currently.
It’s also possible that Centurion gets a full rework just like we had speculations about Appraiser and it turned out to be a whole different thing we imagined, even importantly connected to new game mechanics.

Another issue was that the class was focused on a 9-person party, which was something they eventually decided against… probably due to over-convolution. The lag would be nightmarish…
Seeing as the class skills are apparently still in the game’s files, they could potentially revive it one day… but that’s pretty wishful thinking. Personally, I thought/think it would be an interesting and useful as a 1 circle-only hidden class with some skill changes… but I don’t really think it deserves multiple circles.

I’d love to see Centurion as somehow a swordie support where you could swap between buffs or something that relates to formation.
Like Templar has a movement speed AoE. Centurion could have AoE buffs (in different shapes or something) for defense, attack speed, damage, hp/sp recovery etc.
Just more wishful thinking.

They could make it into a swordman summon class, that would be cool. You could control your troops with the formations.

SPR swordsman! Hahaha it would be tricky to create a build for a summoner swordsman, what previous class could fit better for a summoner centurion? Barbarian? (warcry debuff) Squire? (use Arrest and let the summoned soldiers kill everything) Cataphract? (just to feel like a boss), I really liked this idea, sounds fun.

Nope, I don’t care about that class. lol Seemed like a dumb class idea anyway.

I rather they use the “formation” mechanic they had for shinobi clones. Forward “v” for bossing and box for “AoE” would be a QoL change only anyway.
Centurion -> Templar since Forge scales with SPR \ o /

You could also pick Hoplite for the using INT set with Finestra.
Can even share wizard sets :V
Attribute giving you attack from spirit on c2 centurion. Quantum brain class.
They were pretty quick to remove it after one of the bigger CBT2 exploits. I remember being pulled into a formation way too many times. Also seeing cross-branch builds.
