    New character/faction idea...solution?

    So I have seen a few discussions on the upcoming new characters, thoughts on if there will be a new faction, how it will fit etc... I saw someone mention that new characters should be their own"mercenary"faction. I think thats a cool idea but wanted to expand on it.

    I assume we will have to use steel to unlock the new classes, so here's a thought. For the first week or so, new classes belong to the "mercenary"faction. Once that week is up, the players of the faction (knights, vikings, samurai) that has the most buys/unlocks of the NEW class absorb that class into their ranks.

    Say the knights unlock the ninja more than any other faction, boom, the ninja class is now a member of the knights. Essentially, the faction who pays the most for these mercenaries, via steel unlocks, gain a new class with their ranks, maybe some cool customization.

    Obviously every other faction would still be able to play whoever, like it is now, but this could be a cool wrinkle.

    Thoughts? And I understand there are a lot of issues that need fixing, but can we look past that in this thread please.

    this kinda is going against the plot. bc it's knight, viking, and samurai faction. not a generic faction with random characters in it. so having a ninja or some viking new class inside knights faction is not a good idea.

    Imo the heroes will be released in 2 type

    Mercenary that every faction can use (we can use every faction salvages to upgrade them)

    Specific hero for each faction : for example: Warhammer wielding knight and Centurion for Knight, ninja and dual katana swordmaster for Samurai, 2 handed bigass sword wielder for Viking

    We don't need mercenary faction. Just mercenary heroes.

    Bad idea i suppose. Idk i just thought itd be a cool wrinkly and would allow them to release classes which dont necessarily fit into one of the 3 factions (Native American classes, persians, greeks, egyptians, etc...
