If anything, it might put a little too fine a point on balance by eliminating the valuable (for some) mechanical differences between classes, that is, making the balance too explicit.Not intending to cross threads, I just think its an applicable point.  Its not (for WotC) about creating a standardized play experience, its about creating valuable products for the audience, and the concept holds across many types of product: adventures, supplements, monster manuals, etc. At for them, making that available and useful is a big concern (I would suppose.) The football analogy is lost on me. I don't see how the two pursuits are even remotely similar for these purposes.Certainly. I would hope that individual DMs would consider their players' choices when designing a campaign (or vice versa, I suppose). Nonetheless, I think those choices are easier to make in a more balanced game.</blockquote>
