Not that I'm trying to pick on you in particular, In response to why class X doesn't get power Y Specifically for paladins and shamans: there needs Pico > Why not give them dispel like shamans?? > Does anyone see a problem with something like that?
Daishan, but this is a good opportunity to bring
up this point since it applies to many "ideas"
that are posted here, get sent in email to the
Immortals, etc.
like class Z has: because if class X and Z had
almost all of the same powers, then why bother
having two different classes at all?
to be more than a roleplaying difference between
the two classes, otherwise we'd just make paladin
a quest class for good (align and quality) shamans.
Then instead of a post such as this, there would be
posts much like those that periodically come up
about quest forms for transmuters. Basically,
in the end, nothing much gets solved unless new
ideas for the game are more innovative than
copying the good stuff from the other classes/
races/areas/etc.
