    Class changing should reset that character, and maybe the achievements back to zero if anything.

    Disagree with class change anyway but thats my "but only if"

    I know im beating a dead horse but now we are getting necromancer i can beat a undead horse.

    Bad joke aside i know what people will say regarding this, i understand the point behind it , so players will play a new class a content all over again and thus put more time into it.
    and from biz point of view i understand it, more people longer playing looks better in numbers but there is number of people such as my self who have one main that they got the right name for it and spend hr upon hrs playing it ( me from 2016) and i don't want to loose that.

    For me its kind of heartbreaking , do i say goodbye to my main and start playing a necro and not felling connected to it, or play my main and think about necro a class that i always wanted. :'(

    Please ZoS give us class change token make it 5k crowns and once in 6 months you can buy it or something like that. its a win win situation.

    Please!

    I wouldn't mind a Soul System Token, player>character

    Basically any alt character you have leveled to 50 would be considered a soulless vessel by purchasing a crown store Soul System Token.

    In the character selection screen you could transfer your soul of your main by consuming a Soul System Token into your chosen alt, carrying over all that's unlocked on your main by creating a new "main" out of an alt.

    I always thought a class change token made a thousand times more sense than race changes l, for multiple reasons.
    Firstly, learning a new skill set seems more possible than changing your race species in universe. Secondly the impact of race isn't that big compared to class, so it seems to be less worth paying for it.
    Now for the last and most important one. The main thing kept when changing the char is your character level. Your class progression is only loosely connected to that, having its own kind of separate levelling. Racial skill progression however is directly tied to your level.

    EDIT: Ofc the largest argument for it is a desire to do chapter content with existing chars and still experience the new classes. I might have played a warden, if was allowed to change my main to it. This way I never did any DLC class.
    If all new-class lines would start at 0 progress (skill points being refunded) you'd still have to go through "levelling" the class. That might be a compromise.

    While I understand the hesitation of creating a new toon, other MMOs like WoW and EQ offer far worse grinds for new characters.

    FFXIV is one of the most successful MMOs and they allow you to change class whenever you want. I really don't get the argument against having this feature in games.

    You still need to level up the class in FF. A class change token would allow a player to retain all they have earned thus far in the game on that character and allow them to change a class. DCUO has this and whenever a power (class) becomes top damage dealer many players swap to said power. It is a highly profitable item for Daybreak as a company to have that token. But unlike ESO DCUO does not have a race.

    I'm all for games giving players more options and IMO a class change token should be added. In fact, I would add a character change token where you change your race, class, appearance all for one price of 5K crowns. To me that seems reasonable.

    What we really need at this point is an alliance change token...

    Yes. Not more than fair, given that they introduced faction lock - which indeed is a good and necessary thing. There's need for a cooldown in faction lock though, stretching over months. I'm too tired to thing straight now, but I'm sure it would be exploited in several ways otherwise. Some people are rich, and could buy crowns for switching back and forth like the rest of us switch underwear (hopefully at least a handful of times/week).

    If Breton Hero changed class on trailer from NB to Necromancer than I believe we all should be able to do it.

    welp about names I will say nothing as for me those are jsut for additional fun like from memes :D
    but yeh
    I have found perfect possible appearance for my character and well..Im going with it on every new other char which I will create, even I remember every option on how on which side is something to make just copy
    I was maining nb since beta...but after years being enslaved to single character because of current system..well...it all have patience and it ended for me for playing single class for that long, now I have created every other class in stamina version and playing those depending on my humour which class I want to play today :P but not even touch this my nb after all and well...not even touching, looking and achievs as I dont mind to repeat that many again which have took me few yeras of maining char before - 28k+ which is not small amount especially pre morrowind

    btw then its really nice to find you are not only one doing same looking alts because of thaqt much want to have it all on single character :D but unable to have this :(

    I can understand the idea behind wanting a class change token. And I'd love one. I have a toon I use as storage. But on the side of being able to change your main I dont agree with that. I personally love having a dps tank and healer. Having multiple toons gives the ability to experience multiple aspects of the game. I personally do not want to create a stamina toon.

    People keep asking for a class change token. Just level a new char. You need to learn to play the class anyway.

    If they ever do provide class change tokens it should reset a character to level 1. We don't want a Tamriel filled with max level toons controlled by players who have no idea how to properly use the skills.

    Well, I don't think the people who want a token are complaining about the process of leveling to 50. I would gladly level 2 or 3 characters to 50 if it somehow granted me a token to change my main character's class.

    The issue, again, is extremely time-intensive things such as achievements and exploration. Leveling a character takes such a small amount of time. But abandoning your main for one of the 2 newish classes is throwing away so much progress and forcing yourself to entirely repeat a year or two worth of content.

    The game could really use class change tokens. There's nothing that would force someone to use them if they don't want to.

    As I've stated before, for me, and I'd bet most others, it has nothing to do with leveling. It doesn't take long at all to get to 50. It's about losing all the achieves, progress, profession stuff, that our main has accumulated. My main is my Sorcerer and I am enjoying Necromancer more and really want to switch him to be my main. But due to all the achieves and progress on my current main I feel like I have to keep playing him.

    I would buy one in a heartbeat. I regret my main's class everyday. I have other characters leveled up, but the achievements, and crafting.... ugh.

    Class change, allance change and making some of the achievements accountwide would be amazing. Like, do I really need to kill IC scamps on multiple characters, or loot and launder X amount, or fishing, ect?

    The compromise here would be to just set the class skill trees to stage one. I mean class isn't directly tied to lvl anyway.

    This. It is so painfully obvious that the people who just so arrogantly say "just level a new character" have spent very little time actually putting effort into a character.

    It is not about just hitting 50. It's about Legerdemain, Guild lines (Mages, Thieves, Undaunted, DB, etc), zone achievements, TRACKED ACHIEVEMENTS (of which, there are hundreds), a YEAR'S worth of crafting research (on average), motif unlocks, bank and bag space upgrades, SIX MONTHS of mount upgrades, public dungeon clears...annnnd more.

    But yeah, "just go level a new character bro". Pure idiocy.

    Account wide achieves would be so nice. There's a frustrating reality when you run your low level alts through random dungeons and suddenly some helpful pleb is trying to explain mechanics that you know so much better than him to you in group chat. Or you know, instaquitting people who see a level 20 something and make assumptions. Not all lowbies are new, some of us were here since beta! If only I could link hard mode trial/dlc dungeon challenger achieves from my main to these people.....

    And honestly I'd take a faction change token over a class change. Correct my day one mistake of making my main AD. he's true blue, lives in wayrest, picks up pledges there, and I PVP on DC alts.
