How are you sure Ochan is even a name in any culture?

All the names ends in -an, maybe they should add a:
But on a serious note, the names are a tad corny. Not to say that they're lame, but it's certainly.. different and it seems like they rushed with the names. Why could they call it "Battlemage", or "Lancer", etc.

Those names imply that there's more than one of them, when legends are supposed to be "one of a kind" as far as the universe is concerned.

pomegranate...I was only kidding about the lame names when they released Evan, I guess they like their "clever" vowel word play...
Now watch all 5 reunite to summon YAKAN! The super legendary class.

Problem with that is, if it's a Legend, why is it a playable class? It makes no sense to me. I guess they want you to imagine as if it's ONE-CHARACTER/PERSON. But even then, the names are really ..awkward.

The quests make it obvious that this is the way it's intended to be, whether it makes sense to you or not.

Oo, is that picture from Rush Hour 2?
And I agree, these names are corny/lame/dumb sounding. My only point, as is my only point whenever I dredge up the whole "don't use homo/gay to mean stupid" business, is that if you mean something is corny, stupid, dumb, etc., SAY SO. You can't use derogatory slang and hope to sound intelligent.
OT: B> Korean translators. Hopefully we'll have much more information regarding these other three classes within the next day or so.

I think when greg posts in caps lock he never intends to sound intelligent.
I'm interested in seeing what the other jobs bring. So far, we have a combo system a job with 10 advancements. I can't even imagine what we'll get next.

Should be (F)Ourchan. Yeah, shame it has to start with a vowel.
Not that I'm interested in trying anyway, only playing warrior and they came out first. I'm excited about their capabilities, however.

Ugh. The names suck, and there's nothing wrong with me saying so in the way that I did. You're well aware that Nexon pulled these names straight out of their asses. Do not accuse me of insulting a culture just because you wanted to whine about more than me using your precious sexual preference as an insult. I was obviously going out of my way to offend every homosexual Southperrian in my post.

The word Utan already exists, I being one of them. Be original, Nexon. Don't go naming a whole legendary class on a modern day group of people that live in Utah.
