Why is everyone saying only 10 vocations?

[LinkToFuture]

Itsuno: So currently, we have 10 vocations announced and that’s as much as we currently have plans for at this point right now.

He is literally saying they've announced 10 and have no plans to announce anymore, or am I just reading this wrong?.

[UnhappyCLOWN]

True, it's possible he was trying to be cleaver with his wording and it just translates weird... or... There's only 10 vocations. The latter is more likely, but the former could technically be possible.

I just like all the people breaking down the colors and trying to establish rules about progression.

"nooo pink has no base color vocation, how can they do this !"

[Keith 'Blood' Hanson]

I mean. ...Last game only had nine vocations.

Although I guess it'll feel weird that the pawns will only have access to six vocations this time instead of....Wait they also had six. ...Nevermind then.

Very cut and dry, but Itsuno is terrible at communication since he also said stat allocation was like the first game which it absolutely is not.

It's really sad when they remove cool class like mystic knight and replace assassin, ranger, strider with single weapon classes. This force combat gameplay to be more party based and not a good thing for players who like playing solo non pawn playthrough.

yeah but why would they do this? I would be fine with 10 vocations, but not like that, you can't just tease us with a hybrid class of two non-existing classes. xd

They can't release DLC and expansions with cut vocations, if they don't first cut those vocations.

I'm on your side, I personally think they've only revealed ten classes. I wouldn't think they would add more classes than original while removing classic ones. Not to mention not having advanced archer or thief classes.

This is single handily the choice that baffled me the most, there was not one second where I thought there was even a possibility there isn't going to be an advanced green and yellow.

When warfarer was shown my first thought was well we'll have 12 at minimum and maybe get the pink and purple as DLCs and maybe some more hybrids.

At first I was excited as heck for DD2. Seeing no mystic Knight or any class that even remotely resembles a paladin is a deal breaker for me. Maybe they'll add better classes at a later time, but as it stands now, for me at least, I won't be giving them my money. Oh well though, Elden Ring DLC in a few months! 🙌

[aeternox]

they might add more later, but as for now, there are only 4 starters and 6 advanced of which 4 of them are arisen exclusive

They might add Mystic Knight later, but probably not until an expansion. Unless they add new vocations through title updates or something.

From what I read fighter has some of mystic Knights kit. Can even use Maces.

Really? If that's true, then Mystic Knight is probably not coming back at all and might just get replaced by some new vocation that's a bit similar to it at best.

[Arcanum Elite]

i believe they said that there may be pawn only vocations that the arisen cannot be... so there may be more.... just pawn only.
