So, I've just written 15 subclass ideas (with all the trimmings!) based on four new elements plus the Kinetic element. I've put a lot of work into these, so it's going to be a few posts before you've seen them all. This is my first post and I'm not sure where it should go. Mods that be, help a brother out? I can start with the Warlock, make another post for Titans, and so on for the Hunters. Go ahead and have at me. I want feedback and criticism and discussion. EDIT- I should probably mention I tried this on Reddit before under my old name BerserkRogue13. I've changed by Xbox name now, so Level70PandaMan is my new name here as well. Just in case anyone happens upon that decidedly unsuccessful post. I'll start with Warlock, and post the Titan and Hunter classes as separate replies to this post if I get feedback. Anyways, here's the Warlock classes to start , preceded by new Damage types to make room for the classes. Damage Types Cold;Grey: Causes greater regeneration time for healing. Plague;Red:Can spread between targets. Poisoning effect. Energy;Yellow:Precision fire deals damage directly through shields(however shields must still be broken). Bio;Green:Lingers and causes DOT. The assigned element of Hive weapons,ie Thorn would become a BIO weapon. New Classes WARLOCK Frostcaster (COLD) "What better shelter than to become one with the Cold?" -Winter's Reach:Send icy tendrils of frigid air at your enemies to drain their energy and reduce them to snowy particles. 1st Person Tendrils come from raised left hand and move faster at the expense of super energy with rapid taps of the trigger. After grabbing enemies they weaken them until slamming them into the ground. This is a good team tactic if allies weaken enemies to be taken down. Modifiers: -Massacre: Tendril speed is greatly increased and tendrils go for a maximum of five on screen enemies but this uses up the whole super. -Gale:During your super, you emit icy gales which push targets away at the expense of shorter range. -Veer: Holding down the trigger before releasing allows you to select two targets to chase with frost energy. -Catapult -Exhaust Grenade: Releases a cloud of frigid gas, draining energy and vigor from your enemies. -Disable Grenade: Expells a burst of coldlight that briefly immobilizes enemies. -Gust Grenade:Throw a grenade which releases a cutting gale, pushing enemies away and into the air. -Coldsnap: Snap your fingers to create an icy dagger.

Third Person Tap the shoulders as fast as possible to generate an energy ball, then hurl it at your foes.The ball will travel a straight line around any surface until hitting an enemy.It will explode many times, growing larger.
