Any idea on the Centurion? | Forums

[The_Mensan]

I am guessing... Counter-attacker and defensive hero with good speed similar to its historic counterpart!

The problem is, he would look too similar to Warlord with his Gladius and Buckler... Maybe give him light equipment like Javelin or something (in lieu of a shield).

Sounds just like the Lawbringer... or the Conqueror... but significantly better.

I don't think the centurion will have a shield I think he might be a vanguard by were he is in the character selection!!I don't think he'll be a heavy character with a shield.

[MPerez1216]

Or I might be wrong all characters are under there class deception vanguard,heavy, assasin,hybrid. That's y I thought the centurion might be a vanguard not a heavy!!the ninja looks to be under the heavy classes witch got me to change my mind.

Can we have a real tank plz ?

[TheMalakith]

He seems to have two swords (or something small in the offhand) and doesnt have a shield. He does look tanky as hell though. I think it will be a counter attacker heavy guy.

I hope he has 2 swords. Ive seen Centurion use a spear and shield as well.

I can't think of many weapons the Centurions typically used. Long shield, Gladius, javelin/spear. They probably had other but these are usually associated with them.

I don't want another shield character for the knights, dual wielding with either two Gladii (? is that the plural?) or a Gladius and a spear would be very cool.

Since the only thing for honor does correctly is the fighting, a spear and a sword makes no sense whatsoever.

Why is No one seeing the obvious that he is fighting like a Dimachaerus as in gladiator class / spartacus.
Which makes me think his Endgear looks like the Arena gear, or we get also a Gladiator class, both ways Sound ****ing dope.
He will probably be brawly like the orochi.

Is that so? Supposedly Centurions have used their spears to weigh down or pull on the enemie's shields and then finish them off in close quarter combat with the Gladius. But I'm no expert on the matter. That said, if you look at the thumbnail, you can see a thick, long wooden shaft behind the head of the Centurion which suggests that it's not the short hilt and pommel of a sword but possibly a javelin or spear.

I'm all for the two-handed approach. The question remains, which weapons.
