    This game desperately needs class change token. If upcoming patch goes live lot of people will try/change their class, and us poor peasants can't/won't blow fortune on all of that skill lines.

    Won't happen...been said many times. Just like they said no to alliance changes.

    With the addition of being able to buy most of what you need to make a new toon, way more profitable to have people make new toons than change class.

    Why do people who disagree with class change (WHAT IS THERE TO DISAGREE WITH, IT DOESN T APPLY TO THEM) ignore the many arguments in favor ?!

    Rolling a new character : you lose achievement, you lose motifs, you lose horse training, you lose quest progression. It's not about the speed of levelling gdi it's about much much more. You know, character investment ? The RP part of MMORPG. Might ring a bell ?

    The only thing I agree with you is that yes, people are too sensitive on class changes, namely on fighting against the possibility EVEN THOUGH IT WOULDN'T APPLY TO THEM IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM.

    So you basically don't want to replay your achievements and do every little collect-a-thon all over again. Could you explain to me why you even bother playing online games if you act like your some kind of deserving child who wants everything presented to him on a silver platter? Stop being a whiny winger and actually play the game like myself who abandoned a 30k+ achievement Stam Sorc to play main a Necromancer. I just blew a massive investmentoh damn what ever will I do oh yeah play the game.

    Also stop pretending that people want this you're a minority at this point. Give it a rest.

    Well i can't speak for the other person, but i did almost all of the quest in my 2 chars (and many other deleted chars) fishing, crafting and skill lines. At this point i don't see any reason to do them again. Zos can make it only one per char or per year to avoid constant class jumping. And refund skill points and make class skills level 1 when you change it. As i said leveling them isn't problem for me.

    I've always said perhaps ZoS needs to make more things account wide like Itacira pointed out for example mount leveling. But in my opinion if you see these as some kind of brick wall which you cannot be asked to climb over that's when a game stops being a game. I think there's a great deal of concern when it comes to things like class change tokens and it really does worry me after all these are worrying times for ESO on and off the game. :/

    No reason for that.

    They can sell you a extra character slot and with that they offer you Skyshards and Mage's/Fighters/Psijic Guild skill lines (next patch). Way more profiteable than class change.

    Also *** meta chasers :).

    There's no way to transfer map completion, quest/achievement completion, and lorebook acquisition to a new character in any way so this argument holds no water. ZoS brazenly changes core components of each class and give players no way to protect their investment in the game. Nearly every player in ESO chose their class because they liked what they saw BACK THEN. After a ton of completion (over the course of years in many cases) their choice was rendered irreverent because of a single patch that fundamentally changed how their class operates.

    Their class decision that was made years ago is no longer is valid because the information used for making that decision has changed. ZoS can completely change a class on a whim, but the player is expected to just except that their choice (which was what they wanted) is no longer what they want anymore because of unwanted changes to their class. It's not fun to lose all of your progress just so you can keep playing a game - the solution is to simply leave and many have - and even more will continue to do so until this feature is added.

    I believe they said the same in the past about Skyshards being able to be unlocked and a necro class. Keep asking and Zo$ will see money in it and put it in.

    You can level up a new character (in a new class) in less than a day.

    Anyone using this argument is missing the point about why class change tokens are being asked for in the first place. It's about retaining the immense amount of progress a player has accrued on their account and not wanting it thrown away. There are many achievements that simply cannot be done anymore because the player presence for doing those achievements no longer exists. Players who have dedicated themselves to completing the map on one character have no interest in throwing away their hard work just to change 3 skill lines.


    Same question I put on the other thread. WHY does a heavily developed character suddenly have a Need to change classes? The only thing that makes sense to me, is that a Patch nerfed something, so now they are no longer 'at the top of the PvP mountain' so to speak..

    Which is simply chasing the Meta, and IMHO, is not a good reason. If players are so proud of the amount of development that they achieved with the character (and they Should be IMHO), WHY would the player want to change classes? That original class in ingrained in the character.

    So, from what I see, IMHO, it's just to chase the Meta, which is going to change again in 6 months.

    IMHO, the Class Is a defining aspect of everything that character has accomplished, and should Not be tossed away willy nilly.

    IMHO you're stuck on the idea that people who want class change token are EVIL EVIL meta chasers (which, actually, I don't get that argument : what would be so bad about it ?) and instead of actively reading the many explanations people have given as to why they might want to change the class of their character instead of rolling a new one, you'd rather build the a straw meta chasing argument.
