Thanks again Kaz

@Cyrcle Yeah a lot of people share your passion for bards, I too as a Rogue love their songs and I am sure with enough support they will have their place in Pantheon at some stage

Some stage should be launch!

Looking at their classes again (not sure how they are planned out, but assuming) it looks a little off-balance

Tanks: Crusader, Dread Lord, Warrior
DPS (Melee/Ranged): Monk, Ranger, Rogue
Casters: Druid, Enchanter, Summoner, Wizard
Healers: Cleric, Shaman

Assuming the Druid can assist in off-healing. Enchanter is probably more of a support/crowd control class.

Bard could fit in to the jack of all trades slot. I honestly wouldn't mind it being more of a support/healer class either, similar to Final Fantasy XI.

I can't speak to this officially as this is just my own opinion but I was under the impression that is was basically 3 classes per archetype and Druid would most likely be a healer with dps/cc/utility kind of like VG where if specced properly they can actually heal quite well.

The Bard has always been tagged for a milestone or expansion but who knows, we will most likely run another crowd funding package once we have enough to show off as a solid demo for any investors etc. and pick the right platform for us, so maybe that milestone can be achieved

After taxes come back, I may re-donate my Kickstarter amount. I believe it was $45 or something for Alpha access. I just have to send in the Kickstarter email to get it, I believe?

I just had to correct my mistake since you quoted it "I can't speak to this officially" lol oops

As for the $45 pledge, at the time of the Kickstarter it was:

"Pledge $45 or more Explorer's Pledge - Seeker's rewards, PLUS: Alpha invite, Digital copy of the game (including 30 days of game time), and the in-game title “Pantheon Explorer!"

Alpha access is now pushed back to Founder Pledges which start at $75, as per this new chart: https://www.pantheonrotf.com/public/adm ... echart.jpg

Pledge levels can be found here: https://www.pantheonrotf.com/wiki/view/ ... dge-levels

But yes, all Kickstarter pledges were being honoured on the website as long as they had a validation email/receipt from the pledge to prove it was a transaction that went through and the money/pledge could be re-entered into the Pantheon Development site to keep the same pledge. So alpha should still count for you at the $45 pledge level but I will check and make sure this is still the case, as I am not sure if there was a time period of expiration or whether it is still being honoured.

I cannot see the "subscribe!" tab now that I am an admin but it's the 3rd from the right on the "Home" page once logged in and it should have some info about that if I remember correctly: https://www.pantheonrotf.com/payment/settings

Leave it with me though and I will find out for sure and post back here for you mate

Edit: Ok so this was in the shop and should cover you and anyone else that is interested mate: https://www.pantheonrotf.com/store/prod ... ha-promise

Any problems please let me know and I will be glad to help!

It says alpha, but does not specify beta? Obviously, if I am in alpha, it is only logical I should be in beta as well?

Edit: Seems the current $45 Explorer pack is the same as the old Kickstarter one minus Alpha.

Yes, the "Seekers PLUS" part, Seekers is the $20 beta pledge: Seeker's Pledge - Beta invite, Early name reservation, Access to the game forums to keep up with the latest development progress and to give us your input!

So by pledging $45 you get both.

Sounds good. Thanks Kilsin!

Also, a suggestion that maybe you can bring to their attention. I noticed you can upgrade, but they only have it in for $100, $130, $250, and $500. I would suggest lower denominations ($5, $20, $25, $50) or a way to just input your own amount. Get rid of the $130. It's an odd amount.

For example, if I go with my $45 pledge and I want to upgrade to Patron ($150 pledge). I would have to do the $130 upgrade, effectively spending $25 more than I needed or wanted to.

Same thing, if I wanted to go from my $45 pledge to say Advisor ($300 pledge), I could purchase the $250 upgrade and be $5 short. No way I would want to pay for a $100 and $250 just to get to that point. An extra $95 just to get there.

I would really like to see it to where you can just input any amount, because I think a good way to go would be, get a low pledge and donate $10-$20 a month and slowly increase your total pledge amount and rewards.

Edit: If I wanted to post this suggestion on the forums, where would I post it? I don't see a suggestion section.

There is a common model in F2P-style games where the more desired item cost is, say, 100 points, and $XX get's you 195, forcing to you purchase another denomination. I hope this isn't their intention.

There is a way to just donate and depending on your amount donated, it will automatically upgrade you to the next level pledge once you reach that mark, you can do this a number of ways but most go to https://www.pantheonrotf.com/payment/settings and subscribe to the pledge they want and it just adds onto your already total pledged amount.

You can of course just hook up for $45 pledge with an email and then subscribe for $15 a month until you hit the level of the pledge you want to upgrade too, then cancel the subscription if that is how you would like to do it, this option is pretty popular. You can sub for $5 if you want to take it slower for any reason.

I cannot see this page now though due to getting admin status, it just says I don't need to subscribe, so unfortunately I cannot see the offers but from memory I know you can sub for different amounts or pay off a bigger pledge amount over time without having to buy a set upgrade amount.

https://www.pantheonrotf.com/forums/2/support is the place for suggestions of this type, for this specific query I would post in https://www.pantheonrotf.com/forums/24/ ... p-feedback but the https://www.pantheonrotf.com/forums/3/p ... uggestions is for website related suggestions and please feel free to post any constructive feedback

Just keep in mind we are actively seeking an experienced web tech that can help run/fix/maintain and make it generally more user friendly as currently we are without such a person.

Hopefully some of that will help, if not hit me up mate and I will do what I can to get you the answers
