Commancho✭✭✭✭✭Game was less or more balanced and classes had their identity before Elswyre. Admit mistakes, roll back, buff some underused abilities and you will be forgiven ZOS.0 -

✭✭✭✭I liked the letter. It’s a good start. I would like to see more of this type of communication.
It outlines the overall thinking behind class identity.
Would I like more clarity, depth, details and examples? Yes
What did I get out of it?
Class Identity is the root level of a class and is about the ‘dream’ of a class
Everything else flows from that. So the skills a class has reflect the Class Identity - not all the skills a class currently has actually do this effectively and distinctively.
The numbers behind the skills reflect Class Identity, but the also need to be balanced in comparison to other classes’ skills (so all spammables do the same range of damage and cost a roughly similar amount).
Developing Class Identity and implementing it is going to be a process that will take time.
Anything that means a Stam sorc and a Stam necro don’t share the same 5 bow back bar skills setup will be good.0
