It needs to use the abilities in a unique way, but also be balanced internally and externally. I don't expect anyone to actually have the perfect system on here, but since so many people seem to be missing what I am trying to say, I felt it was good to use your example as a highlight of the challenge I am trying to point out in the design.I agree 1 seems to be too few, but subclasses are carrying a lot of weight in new options, and we have had quite a lot of those. A few dozen easily.Also, I think that going through the committee of public acceptance might be a good move. Not only does it mean we get to see the process and contribute, which allows us to take options that get abandoned and redo them, but it also gives us a way to hopefully avoid major pitfalls along the way.</blockquote>
