I'll make them cause I have equips i can reuse. Other than that, free buffs and storage mules FTW?
See, with every new class that shows up, there's going to be the hype of "new-ness" ESPECIALLY since all the new classes make the original 4(and pirates I suppose) look like complete pomegranate. Why would ANYONE make one of the original classes, that have the perks of sharing a CS storage and that's about it, that have lol animations and lol damage, when they could make a SUPER UBER FLASHY NEW classs! Who gives a pomegranate if they can't share cash items, I CAN SHOOT FUCKING UNICORNS and mob 20 times more effectively than any other class before me (except Dual Blades, but herp derp they don't count as the original adventurers either).
If hey made cannon shooter a mid range + melee class, I feel like that would have been more interesting. But they kinda killed off the cannon shooter hype by introducing it in the same patch as the Mercedes and Demon slayer. who wants a nub cannon shooter when you can has a character who automatically has devil's wings? Or an archer that has everything all the original archers wanted and then some? They're all cool classes to most people because they have new skills that eclipse any of the original set and they can do it while making their damage not suck. I mean look at Mercedes' hurricane. Why have a tiny hurricane that can only shoot tiny arrows? DPS you say? why have DPS when you can shoot 2 hurricanes at the same time and add more damage because of final attack? Why make a BW or Axe warrior character when you have a demon slayer who specializes in them and doesn't ever need to use potions? Did I mention that each one of these characters essentially get the equivalent original character's 4th job skills at level 10? Yeah Demon slayers can get 90% stance at level 10 while warriors have to spend 10 levels of SP for that. The same can be said of Mechs. They also get free personality traits at level 10. Oh you want a pocket slot? Equip 2391792 Cash shop items while Ms. Mercedes over here gets that at level 10. Oh you wanted flashjump because NLs were so cool at getting it? Now you get that at level 10 too! See what I'm getting at?
(just for reference, I was uber hyped for pirates and I actually played the character past level 120 and every other "new" class that came out since, played just because i got free crap from them as shown by my level 70 Aran, my level 70 DB, my level 70 cygnus, and my level 120 mech (I just wanted 4th job on this one to farm pap crack)).
