[QUOTE="Mercurius, post: 5531137, member: 59082"] Anyone played with a class-less form of 4E? No, not 4E that isn't classy but 4E without using the formal classes. For instance, one could use power source based characters that can pick and choose powers from any class as long as it is of the same power source. So you could have an "Arcane" character, or a Martial or Divine or Primal character, etc, that could mix and match what powers they have from a given source, perhaps choosing a single feature from one of those classes. Or you could vary that and have a "primary" power source and one or two "secondary" power sources, the equivalent of a multi-class character. A ranger type might be Martial as primary and Primal as secondary, a warden the other way around. A character could take any and all of their primary sources powers but a limited number from the secondary (maybe only encounter powers). Or you could do away with any classification and just build a free-form character from scratch, a kind of "polymath" class. I'm just improvising as I write this but I'm wondering if anyone has tried anything like this. [/QUOTE]
