But I'm the end theu won't be equal. One spec or build will be stronger or synergies better with the party and become the standard. It's not better for drgs if they spec lancer tank build to be stronger than a war. It just kills off wars. There is no balance because there is always a winner and a looser. That's the illusion of choice. You can choose the winner or the looser, but never 2 winners.
What's in game now is the pathetic remains of an ill-conceived cross class system. There are good and bad choices. How a good game does class customizing is they have you chose between good and good options. Preferably what matches your playstyle. difficult to do, yes, but if pulled off correctly, oh so worth it.
