E-Shaman and barbarian (thought hopefully they'd call it a Berserker instead) would be at the top of my list, in addition to what you said.What crossover questions? An Essentials Fighter can take any Fighter based ED or PP that their stats qualify them for. Or Druid or so on. But a "core" Fighter can't take an Essentials PP, since the Slayer's PP has the requirement of Slayer. If you qualify for the PP/ED via any means (be it as simple as a feat on upwards) you can take it.The Thief and the PHB Rogue are NOTHING alike. Completely different set of powers, feel, style, weapons. Totally different play style. PHB Rogue is more along the lines of a bully that slams an enemy when he can. An Ess Thief is more along the lines of a tactical trickster that makes the enemy screw up with his cunning and takes advantage of it. A Slayer is all killing, all the time, and none of his powers involve defense. A PHB Fighter, no matter how strikery you try to build them, still has Marks and Defendery powers.Knights (and Cavaliers) with their Auras work far differently than older Defenders and their Marks.Don't let the similar names fool you. Just because they have similar names does NOT make them the same thing. That's like saying a yen, a euro and a dollar bill are all the same cause they're all money. Nope, a PHB Fighter, Ess Knight and Ess Slayer are all different, and fit different tasks for the party.</blockquote>
