[QUOTE="Kobold Avenger, post: 5866599, member: 779"] Back in 3.5e I think the greatest example of a class that was a "hybrid" class was the Psychic Warrior, it certainly was something in between the Fighter and the Psion, but it definitely felt unique to either of those classes. Though it did suffer too much from being one that depended on self-buffs. You could say the Bard was maybe a Rogue and Wizard hybrid, though allegations of it's weakness aside, it certainly had it's own unique space. While many of the 4e classes all had powers that were very similar to other class powers, I'd say that each one had maybe a few that stood out more than others among their own powers (especially the ones used for abusive combos and tactics). Though one thing I think that should happen is that any class that does get spells shouldn't get limited level spells/maneuvers/whatever like only up to level 4 or 6. I think they should all get level 9 or whatever the upper limit is for their, spells. It's just that rather than having a high level Paladin get Clerics spells like Gate or Implosion, or something like "Death Blow" which Fighters would get, they should get spells like Wrathful Smite of Doom.
