The only 'change' I made to that system in my last post was to make 'melee scythes' or 'Great scythes' a swd-type weapon so they still fall into the same system while still being different from the Botanist sub-tool.
Same exact theory as Kaze, just making a new weapon that would fit into the same system and still give the 'masses' what they want... if they want it. Easy fix, Great sword and great scythe both fit under sword (GLD base class), but PLD advanced class can only use the Great sword or sword and shield, and the 'Great Scythes' items have a DRK only modifier attached to them so only DRK can use them. All weapons are still under the GLD base class.
Just adding the scythes because we know future DRKs will want to use them... it's inevitable.
EDIT: yeah I know that scythes aren't like swords... but then we would have to put them under marauder for a weapon and make DRK a marauder based class with branches out to berserker or drk and remove DRK from the GLD skill set and then add RDM to the GLD set...etc..etc...
it's all semantics... I only wanted to show how a fan-favorite weapon could be added within the proposed system without any major changes to said system. The same theory applies to your guns, katanas, pikes, crossbows, etc...etc..
EDIT 2: Really, DRK should be a Marauder advanced class though... RDM fits far better under the GLD skill tree.
