    Horizontal and vertical both have pros and cons. At least with vertical progression there's always something to work towards, even if it gets made obsolete every 6 months. With horizontal there's a chance you'll hit BiS in, say, HW, and nothing added in StB or ShB is better, so that's two expansions where you have nothing to work with.

    Never say Never. I often come accross ideas that I never though of that I liked, and I do enjoy the challenge of end game stuff. I'm merely giving suggestions that I know myself and many other gamers in my play type would enjoy.

    I admit best in slot and meta is always a threat, but that happens even now. As long as SE makes tweaks and make content viable with any jobs like they've been doing, its a largely a mute point.
