Why even have classes if we all have the same souls?

This is a mechanical response: not possible. The variations in mechanics between the classes (energy, power, mana, combo points, finishers, fury, cunning) alone would take months to years to fix all the interactions between all 55 souls.

But every class has the same function built into their soul trees: AoE healing, ST healing, Tank, DPS, AE DPS, support and so on. Why not roll a warrior with a Sentinel soul (from cleric)? Or have a cleric Bard. I mean, the Oracle is basically a Bard? BTW: The less literal you take this, the better off you'll be.



This eliminates 'class balance,' reinforces the 'bring the player' and might, just might, make for some wild hybrid specs that are being passed up for 61 point builds.



Of course the question is now: "Why make a warrior tank versus a cleric tank versus a mage, etc?"



There should be class bonuses (if you will). For example, maybe the Cleric has an instant battle rez versus the other classes with a cast time, or 100% health after rez instead of 50%. Rogues should be faster with a shorter GCD. Warriors should meat shield better and so on.

Please Help.

Thanks !

I didn't find the right solution from the internet.
