Seventh Ranger.3968 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 I have a document I've been working on with the designs for a new class I came up with, and I was wanting to share them with the community, but the document is too big to copy/paste into here. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can share it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Post a link to it in the 'Community Creations' or 'Professions' sub-forums? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seventh Ranger.3968 Posted October 4, 2020 Author Share Posted October 4, 2020 As far as I can tell, I can only link URLs. Do you know how I could put a word document or something in a post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega.6801 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 I doubt a new class is needed as in GW2 characters progress in the form of elite specs. What would a new class do that the existing 9 classes with their respective elite specs don't? How would a new class be introduced, with two, probably three elite specs, all at once?

Seventh Ranger.3968 Posted October 4, 2020 Author Share Posted October 4, 2020 Well I'd like to think I've created a class that's unique from the existing ones. And yeah, that's kind of what I was thinking, that it would be released with the same number of elite specs as the existing ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a way to upload stuff like Word documents too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 You cannot attach a word document (or any other type of file) to a post.You have two options:1) Put it online using something like Google Docs and then link to it2) Split it into multiple posts. Copy and past it all into one then trim out as much as necessary until it will fit, then copy and past the rest into a reply to that first post, and keep repeating the process until it's all there.Also, at the risk of making an unfair assumption, I strongly recommend you give it a re-read first and see how much you can trim it down. I've hit the character limit for posts a few times and it's pretty massive, you have to be writing basically an essay (or in my case a guide to a long process) to hit that limit. The longer your post is the less likely people are to read it all the way through, so it's in your interest to make it as short as reasonably possible, with a brief overview of the general idea at the top to catch people's interest and persuade them it's worth reading all the detail. Things like lists of skills or traits could be a bullet-point list of the key features rather than full descriptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seventh Ranger.3968 Posted October 4, 2020 Author Share Posted October 4, 2020 Well I did give an overview at the beginning, but yeah, it is pretty long. It's a full design, with all the weapons, skills, and traits written out and described. Thanks for the google doc suggestion btw, I'll check it out!

Seventh Ranger.3968 Posted October 4, 2020 Author Share Posted October 4, 2020 I did it! I figured it out, and I've now posted the link as well as a brief summary of the class in both Professions and Community Creations! God, that feels satisfying! Thank you so much to everyone for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
