You guys have a test server, right? Why not provide a handful to the best players/guilds for them to try out ideas on next game? You'd probably need to provide field service people to do the programming for them, but giving the ability to freely test out ideas to a couple dozen of the best players in the game (or so) would give you and your team a much broader idea and experience base to draw upon. Just a thought. --76.25.197.215 06:21, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Why this is a good idea

• Would prevent overpowered builds ever coming into the game (I hate the fact that anyone can take something like a 55 monk and farm somewhere for ages).
• Would help improve underpowered builds.

Why it may not work out

•  Will be unfair for people that don't grind PvP and Titles
  •   Grind =/= skill. --76.25.197.215 20:56, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
