So just a few questions:
Basically, I want to relate classes in mmorpgs to classes in games of other genre.
For example, comparing rogues, warriors, clerics, and mages to classes in team fortress 2.
1) What I want to know, is what classes would be able to fit inside the rogue/warrior category? I know that many classes can fit in more than one class.
For example:
http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.ph...aracterClasses
http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.ph...dventurerIsYou
http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.ph...aracterClasses
http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.ph...ghterMageThief
http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.ph...assEquivalents
Each of these pages has something slightly different regarding the relationships between the two sets of classes.
2) In addition, what exaclty is magic in the modern context? Is it just technology and science? Which means engineer and alchemist classes would be mages and wouldn't fit inside the rogue/warrior category? Would they be able to fit?
3) As for ranger classes, how come the beastmaster class is also called a ranger? If they rely on pets as their primary source of combat? Don't rangers generally use bows and arrows?
4) Would the guy in charge of mortars or using rocket launcher be able to fit inside the rogue/warrior category?
5) Where would the merchant/artisan/diplomat classes fall in?
thanks.





It looks like you're trying to group classes over a wide range of games into a pre-set group of classes that applies to every game which doesn't exist.
