OK, but this is getting dangerously close to the stick approach again. It may be closing A particular loophole (if one exists, I'm not sure) but it probably doesn't come close to closing them ALL. This is of course a danger with a system like 4e when you introduce an entirely new element. Slayers, for example, kind of 'break' the MBA, making it too good. It isn't enough to really 'break 4e' but it definitely creates some weird and not really thematically justified synergies like between Slayers and Warlords.
MM didnt think of those in advance it was short sighted narrow visioned and demonstrated lack of empathy for the over all system.
If MM can brokes it I can fixes it... zing
No but seriously I am not looking at this as a design idea to take exactly the classes as stand and tack it on to them but rather to construct and present them in terms of this which may well mean Slayer is built entirely different.
