[QUOTE="Crimson Longinus, post: 8306616, member: 7025508"] But that's not a fair comparison. It could just as well be "I would like the official designers hotfix this class that exists by adding in an official rule." and "You can fix this issue by homebrewing an unofficial additional class." Fixing an existing class and crating a new class are both creating rules and those rules can be in either case be created officially or unofficially. Well, yes. There definitely is a disagreement about the scope of the issue. I acknowledge that the issue exist in certain degree, but not in extent that it couldn't be addressed with small fixes. Furthermore, I often feel that these new class suggestions are often not so much about fixing some issue or being able to create a certain type of character. Usually it turns out that you can already create the sort of character you want and there are already ways to address the issue you're having: it's just that people have their pet solutions and exact mechanical methods they want to see, and aren't satisfied with anything else.
