You can't give specific classes advantages like that because it will alienate people. Diversity should be encouraged, not demanded.

I guess I can see how that would be a problem. But, the fact that classes can be switched at any time is definately something that helps aleviate this problem (although it doesn't fix it I know).

But something else to take into consideration is that with SE's current attitude towards keeping things at least casual friendly we can be pretty sure that a mechanic like this would not make not having a Marauder a party breaker, just one more thing to take into consideration for for people who want to take their game that extra mile. This was more an attempt to suggest ways for SE to reward strategy and innovation, as they say they wish to, by giving every class something to bring to the table.

I don't think systems like this should be forced onto players but I do think they make great additions for people who want them.

Also how would this alienate people? I am really kinda confused as to how this would have such an effect.
