    The only other problem I have is that a stealth class is a staple of most other MMO's. It basically like telling one faction in a fanatasy MMO that they don't get casters. I really don;t like that idea. Of course agents get the smuggler's cover system, its only fitting a republic class gets the agent's stealth ability.

    I really think the Republic needs a stealth class. If one side has the stealth ability it will have a huge advantage in pvp. I think of games like WAR, WOW, and DAOC. Could you imagine the faction pvp imbalance if you eliminated the stealth classes from just one side? If BW only gives the imperials a stealth class then they will have to give a republic class a HUGE counter to it.

    There is a bit of a problem with your thinking since Druids could also stealth in WoW and both rogues and druids are playable on both factions.

    Yer, i totally agree with Pinio's statement about the steal clothes/disguise ability. That would also be incredblely iconic, mirroring what han and luke did on the first death star, stealing the stormtrooper uniforms. But this ability would have alot more limits than the Agent's sleath, but it would be very fun to play.
    But to answer the poll question, i say no, becuase i think it would debalance the factions a little too much, even thougth all the classes are going to be 'unique'.

    I think that there will be a Republic Mercenary class to go up against the Bounty Hunter and it will use the Stealth Belt ala KOTOR's Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders seen in both games.

    In my opinion Republic Trooper is shown as a Heavy Armor class and Bounty Hunter is shown as a Medium Armor class so with that logic we should expect to see a Republic Medium Armor class and an Empire Heavy Armor class.

    I still can't help but to wonder if the Mandalorian could fill that heavy armor Sith slot. They were featured pretty heavily in the timeline entry and all of the timeline entries featuring "classes" have come true, smugglers, Jedi Knights, and Imperial Agents. I think Bioware put that timeline entry out early to throw us off. But who knows, it's all speculation at this point anyways.

    I dont think that the agent would be the only one.Personally this is just a guess but i think the next class will be the bothan spy for the Republic. I know its a big assumption but thats my prediction.

    Bothan Spy is too limiting because Bothans are a very private race, to keep with lore the player would have to be a Bothan.

    Of the classes they've announced so far I can't see them giving stealth to anyone else. They could always announce new classes and change my mind. But for now I don't see the smugglers using stealth.

    While I agree that I don't really see smugglers as the stealth type ( come on, han gets the attention of everyone within 20 miles...and likes it ), but I can not see them giving stealth to the Sith Empire, but not to the Republic. Someone on the republic side will get stealth.
