Do you support the implementation of class change tokens?
I might have used one on my nightblade main crafter if it had been given free with the CP overhaul (because the green tree silliness). But I assume ZOS would not give em free every time they do some "adjustment" which is inconvenient for some class or classes. I'm not against it and because I would never buy one I don't care how ridiculously P2W priced such tokens would be.
ESO has some of the easiest and fastest levelling of any MMO out there.
Are some of them faster? Sure. Do some of them offer more convenient ways of switching between classes? Sure. But most MMOs are way slower and less convenient than ESO.
I really don't think it's that urgent or important for ESO to get class change tokens. Heck, if ZOS managed to make all crafting motifs and other things account-wide, they might not even need to make class change tokens at all.

I'm generally against any "pay to not play" features. But especially this kind of thing - if you want to play a class, play it. Don't just skip to the end.
Basically this. Not to mention the fact that I have to take ZoS' word for it that it would be hard to do and I'd much rather have them spent that effort doing something everyone benefits from. This does not benefit everyone.
Also, it would (and should) be expensive as hell, considering ZoS loses the chance of selling riding lessons, skyshards and the like. Also, there would be much less of a goldsink as people won't buy mount upgrades, bag upgrades and such. The price for such a token would be higher than the most expensive house in the crown store and as such it will limit the amount of people who'd buy it in the first place, making the effort to create such a token basically a waste of time.
As someone mentioned before, I'd much rather see a "buy me to get to lvl50 instantly" token. This would limit the potential of lost purchases as you only get the skill points for lvling and also keeps the gold-sinks intact. Of course you'd have to have at least 2 characters at lvl50 already before you can purchase such an item. Not that I like that idea either, but it's better than a class change token and a lot cheaper and easier to sell.
Id only support it if you got like 1 every 6 months otherwise it would be a constant meta chase and as an endgame player that would put obnoxious pressure on us to change classes as needed by our group.
