Yes, I know the Spiritborn is basically a Druid Witch doctor Monk and that it has 4 spirits (not only the jaguar), but āJaguarā 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 donāt call the necromancer āBalancerā.
(Just an opinion. I know they are not going to change all the advertising and the whole game. Itās too late to change it.)

I THINKā¦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?
)
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

Iām thinking of a single word that makes you immediately imagine what the class is about.
āSpirit 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 thatās what blizz is trying to sell it.

One more reason to call it that way.

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 āJaguar Warrior.ā
Like the jaguar warrior of mesoamerica⦠I mean⦠the reference couldnāt be more obvious and direct.

Depends. Itās clearly Inca-Maya-Aztec inspiration, and so in those cultures jaguars (ÅcÄlÅtl) were important but not only, snakes (cÅÄtl) 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 thatās 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

ok, hear me out, how about Amazon
Nah.
You would make the brazilians mad.
They call the animal āOnƧaā
Read it as āonsaā with the āƧā like āsā in āsalsaā.
Yep Iām sure now that youāve made this post theyāll scrap all the marketing theyāve probably spent millions on and rename the class on the game.
Shouldāve been called guardians.
Theyāre the guardians af Nahantu and they summon guardians.
No brainer but
might not have passed marketing.
How about āPower Rangersā?
4 of them in a team, and they bend and twists and combine into the āMegaZordā:
- Jaguar guy as head
- Gorilla arms
- Centipede feet (poor sod bearing the weight of everyone else)
- Falcon wings (nah, canāt really fly)
