[QUOTE="Mustrum_Ridcully, post: 5983812, member: 710"] When the first talks of D&D Next started, I hoped for something that unifies the Essentials Fighter and the 4E Fighter in some form. Basically, at every so and so levels, a Fighter would select either a Daily or Encounter Power, or he would select a passive "always on" feature. The "always on feature" would have the limitation of only being balanced against the daily XP budget. I'D even hoped that there would be a "Dwarf" Class in the Basic Set. Which is just a Dwarven Fighter with pre-selected choices at certain levels, representing the archetypical Dwarf Fighter. In a later rulebook, these choices could be explained and alternate choices could be introduced. I think that would have been a cool approach, to genuinely bring the game back to its roots, while maintaining all the modern design elements. But no such luck. [/QUOTE]
