 Terraced Professions(Discussion)

When you start the game, all players will be on the same field and have no profession. Very similar to choosing a secondary profession in the pre-searing, players will have an opportunity to try a number of classes, and decide throughout the course of the game what they would like to specialize in. At around level 5 or so, players can be given the option of choosing their first level of profession; Mage, Warrior, or Rogue. Later in the game, players will be able to pursue an even more specialized profession: Mages can turn into either Elementalists, Necros, or Monks. Warriors can turn into either Dervish, Axe/Sword/Hammer warriors, or Paragon. \ Rogues can turn into Rangers, Assassins, or Mesmers. Further in the game, players will be able to further pursue their interests with another tier of specialized professions.

 * Players would have the opportunity to test out all the professions and see which one suites him/her the best.


 * Why it may not work out
 * Would require more specialized professions
