    and then they add more type of healing and buffing skill lines and sudenlly you have MORE options.....

    your option right now is lets face it templar or go home lol.....

    As someone who has played a Mageblade Healer, MagDK Healer, Magden Healer, Magsorc Healer and Magplar Healer...
    You really don't have to be a Templar to be a good healer, you just have to be a good healer...Besides, Templar are gradually dying in terms of usefulness...Healing wise they need a buff. (Possibly more Minor/Major buffs Templars can dish out to DPS/Tank) Warden Healers and Nightblade Healers have been working best for me when it comes to endgame content.

    Templars are basically the Stamsorcs of Healing...They are only best at cheesy burst healing...Trust me, I know.

    Welcome, Moon-and-Star, to this place where destiny is made.

    I play healers or DPS often for vet dungeons and trials (NA, CP810+). I play mostly elves or Argonians.
    I primarily play Damage-Based stuff in PvP, but occasionally I'll play something tanky or got the heals.
    I also love gaining more knowledge both metaphysical and mundane regarding TES lore.

    I also occasionally role-play, but I prefer playing the game.

    reminds me of the whole free form system in co [althou replace the 100+ powers with 45 powers & passives]
    so yeah, rethinking the skill balance and I could see this working out rather well and fun.

    Everyone would have the same combo of skill tress anyway. Becouse that how's meta work.

    Want competitive pvp while being outnumbered? Tough luck, the devs clearly said you have to die in those situations

    *** no. Please go play a different game if you want no class individuality.

    i have no idea why you think this would prevent cookie cutter builds. People would still find out which skill lines work best and that would become the new cookie cutter build.

    So nice try but no thanks.

    and let us chose the 3 skill trees we want to use and level whenever we want....

    Devs from here on out would only need to make Skill trees to expand our characters with options to oblivion.....

    and because they are entire trees like what we have now and we are limited to 3 trees like we are now people could not be fully able to make super broken cookie cutter builds like if you could if we could freely chose from all the skills.
    ( lets face it everyone would run with the one single most optimal thing then )

    no more Classes
    WAY more freedom
    Less tress on devs they dont need to make ENTIRE classes just more and more and MORE skill lines till we choke in them.....
    And Balance is not totally broken because of Skills still locked into trees and max 3 trees allowed.

    Remove the classes and free up the Skill trees i say !

    an example:

    a Character running with this 3 skill line and its passives.
    - Ardent Flame
    - Dawns Wrath
    - Shadow

    ( things would need a little rebalancing tough..... )

    No.... are you kidding? right now there are 5 combinations to balance against each other. You are suggesting 20 combinations to balance against each other. As it is, people play meta. If everyone had access to the same thing, then there would be exactly 3 builds out of 12 people. One Tank, one Healer, one DPS build.

    It might make more variety available, but you would actually see less variety.
