I think it should just be called Jaguar šŸ†

Yes, I know the Spiritborn is basically a Druid Witch doctor Monk and that it has 4 spirits (not only the jaguar), but ā€œJaguarā€ defines the character very well.
And the image with which it is promoted has a jaguar helmet for a reason.

Melee combat, agile, wild… Jaguar.

I mean… we don’t call the necromancer ā€œBalancerā€.

(Just an opinion. I know they are not going to change all the advertising and the whole game. It’s too late to change it.)

I THINK…I really think that depending on what spirit animal your going for your gear changes To that animal… (I THINK) , lol

or something along those lines.

No, not really. Only changes skill effects.

(If not, how would you sell cosmetics for the class? :wink:)

Jaguar is not a good name for this character. Whole thing would need redesign. Some alternates could have been

Spirit Weaver
Spirit Caller
Spirit Forged

not not Jaguar

I’m thinking of a single word that makes you immediately imagine what the class is about.

ā€œSpirit anythingā€ immediately diverts your imagination to somewhere else.

He is not a priest, nor a magician… he is a warrior.

Jaguar is the coolest and that’s what blizz is trying to sell it.

IF you want just 1 word names then it cant be jaguar with jaguar being one of the paths. Would be like naming it Centipede or Gorilla. It doesnt work obviously.

Eternal
Immortal
Weaver

Spiritporn
/20 centipedes

If I had to choose two, it would be ā€œJaguar Warrior.ā€
Like the jaguar warrior of mesoamerica… I mean… the reference couldn’t be more obvious and direct.

:sweat_smile:

Depends. It’s clearly Inca-Maya-Aztec inspiration, and so in those cultures jaguars (ōcēlōtl) were important but not only, snakes (cōātl) and eagles (cuauhtli) as well. Most famous deity was Quetzalcoatl, the Feathered Serpent. For me I will call him/her the Aztec warrior, or something like that.

I know… but when you think of an eagle, you think of America (USA)… a gorilla, Africa (Jungle)… a snake, the desert (or IDK).

(I only think of Quetzalcoatl if I see an eagle hunting a snake on top of a stick.)

Jaguar is a no brainer name… and maybe that’s just why they chose something more complex. It fits so well that someone will surely be offended.

You can just name your character Mancat. Or Manwhopurrs. Crazycatman.

Well I think it should just be called Centipede :bug:

ok, hear me out, how about Amazon

Nah.
You would make the brazilians mad.

They call the animal ā€œOnƧaā€
Read it as ā€œonsaā€ with the ā€œĆ§ā€ like ā€œsā€ in ā€œsalsaā€.

Yep I’m sure now that you’ve made this post they’ll scrap all the marketing they’ve probably spent millions on and rename the class on the game.

Should’ve been called guardians.

They’re the guardians af Nahantu and they summon guardians.

No brainer but :man_shrugging: might not have passed marketing.

How about ā€œPower Rangersā€?

4 of them in a team, and they bend and twists and combine into the ā€œMegaZordā€:

  • Jaguar guy as head
  • Gorilla arms
  • Centipede feet (poor sod bearing the weight of everyone else)
  • Falcon wings (nah, can’t really fly)
