Shattered Kingdoms

We don't need new classes, or races. We need more diversity between the current characters of the same class, beyond just being a different race.

That's the idea behind the feat system.

Priests are very diverse now and that was a step in the right direction. Now we just need more diversity with other classes.

Feats - no. Trades and class skill trees, yes.

Can you elaborate on what that means? When I see the word 'Trade' that makes me think of something like blacksmith, or jeweler...Not exactly the kind of diversity I personally would like to see. I would like some sort of combat diversity. The current skill/spell lists could be re-formatted to appear as a skill tree also, so I don't quite understand what you mean by that either.

I think trade would be as you describe, but skill tree sounds precisely like what you want, with diversity within classes. And I want both.

Trades would not be as rudimentary as blacksmith or tailor. I am thinking that there would be trades to create a number of items that are useful. Vials, scrolls, pills, treasures, weapons, and other things I've suggested a while back. Skill trees would be where you have a choice. You'd pick a certain focus for your skillset. Maybe lose a few, maybe gain a few. Maybe something unique for each possible tree. Perhaps also leave the option open to stay the basic skillset as well.

The concept of 'multiclassing' where you go shopping for your skills and spells, is not going to happen.

As for on-topic, I've already stated the response to this - the mere merging of the existing two spells into one command is too little reward for the effort involved. Some replies are suggesting a complete overhaul of how enchanting works, but I'm not sure that this extended idea has been articulated clearly yet...

Its been hashed out repeatedly with almost no response from Dulrik. I'm guessing he's going to keep it as it is unless a need or issue arises. Enchant is good, I suppose messing with it might actually not be a good plan.

If I was going to mess with enchant, it would be a total overhaul. When we eventually get to a trade system, it will need a total overhaul at that time anyway, so I'm not in any hurry to mess with it now.
